The Impact Studies

Extensive impact studies will be carried out at the venues of 2WAYS presentations and on the Internet through this and partners' web sites.

The Impact Comparison Survey The “Impact Comparison Survey” is conducted to analyse the impact of your event, both the presentations and debates. The independent professional partner of the survey, who will analyse the material and present the results to you, is University of Helsinki, Faculty of Behavioural Sciences (FBS), Department of Applied Sciences in Education, Professor of Science Centre Pedagogy, Mr. Hannu Salmi. The report will be made at Heureka Science Centre with the FBS and presented at the Finals.

Contact Ms Paula Havaste at Heureka, The Finnish Science Centre (http://www.heureka.fi) for further information.

In addition to the studies carried out on site with the actual visitors, each partner will have a similar survey at their website, in their own language.
