Hello,
My name is Karen Calpin, I am a PhD student, based at the University of Glasgow, my research is focusing on the design of STEM public engagement activities. If you are involved in the design or creation of activities I would be very grateful if you could take the time to fill out my online questionnaire (see the link below). The questionnaire looks at the elements that make up an activity, such as audience, use of questioning, venue layout etc, to try to discover if and how these elements influence each other. It is hoped that this questionnaire can shed some light on the elements of an activity and aid in the creation of a model of the design process of creating activities.
The questionnaire can be found at;

I would be really grateful for your participation.
Thanks
Karen Calpin
