Session/Talk Feedback Form
Enable attendees to provide instant feedback on individual conference sessions with this streamlined form. Designed for quick completion between sessions, it captures essential ratings on speaker performance, content quality, presentation pace, and actionable takeaways. The form uses emoji ratings for quick sentiment capture and star ratings for detailed evaluation. Conditional logic shows relevant follow-up questions based on ratings, helping organizers identify both star speakers and sessions that need improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I collect feedback during a multi-track conference?
Add a session selector dropdown at the start or share unique links/QR codes for each session. This ensures feedback is properly attributed to the correct talk.
Should I use this for keynotes vs. breakout sessions?
Yes, this form works for both. For keynotes, you might want to extend it with additional questions about impact and memorability, while breakout sessions can focus more on practical takeaways.
How quickly can attendees complete this survey?
Designed for 1-2 minute completion. The core rating takes 30 seconds, with optional detailed feedback for those who want to share more.
How do I share results with speakers?
Export aggregate ratings and anonymized comments for each speaker. Focus on constructive patterns rather than individual critical comments. Include both quantitative scores and qualitative highlights.
What is a good response rate for session feedback?
Aim for 20-40% response rate. Place QR codes prominently, keep surveys short, and consider incentives like prize drawings for completed surveys. Sending reminders at the end of the day can also boost responses.
