Questionnaire-based evaluation collected session by session, mostly by QR code — for accreditation evidence, speaker development, or simply knowing which sessions landed.
What it is
You write a questionnaire once and decide where it applies — to every session of a type, to a track, or to one specific session. Rostrum then generates a QR code into each affected session automatically, so the operational work is assigning the questionnaire, not producing codes.
What it changes
Evaluation stops being a paper form nobody fills in or a survey emailed a week later to people who have forgotten. The QR is on the room card at the moment the session ends, responses close on a schedule so late trickle does not skew the report, and the results are aggregated per question without anyone transcribing anything.
The accredited track
One general questionnaire across the meeting, and a more detailed one assigned to the accredited track — the specific assignment wins automatically.
The workshop evaluation
Assign by session type so every workshop gets the same form without touching them individually.
The closing slide
Put the session's QR on the final slide and on the room card. Feedback opens the moment the session ends.
What you can do
- Build questionnaires from four question types, or start from an organization template.
- Assign a questionnaire to a session type, a track, or a single session — the most specific assignment wins.
- Have QR codes generated automatically into every affected session as you assign, and removed when you unassign.
- Download one session's QR, or every QR at once.
- Let delegates respond from the app or straight from the QR without navigating anywhere.
- Read a dashboard of response counts, per-question averages, answer distributions and free-text responses.
- Export the whole lot to Excel.
Precedence, stated once because it is the thing people get wrong: a session-level assignment beats a track assignment, which beats a session-type assignment. So a broad default plus a narrow override behaves the way you would hope.
Settings
| Setting | What it controls | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Allow feedback during session | Whether delegates may submit before the session has ended. Off means the form refuses early responses — usually what you want, since a mid-session rating judges half a talk. | Off |
| Close feedback after | Hours after a session ends before the form stops accepting responses. Blank keeps it open indefinitely. | Never closes |
| Allow anonymous feedback | Delegates may respond without signing in. Anonymous responses are deduplicated per device rather than per person, and a signed-in response always takes precedence over an anonymous one from the same delegate. | Off |
Anonymous responses are only accepted while the Attendee App's access mode is not sign-in required — a members-only app keeps its feedback attributed regardless of this switch. Deduplication for anonymous responses is per device, so the one-response-per-person rule is enforced honestly for signed-in delegates and best-effort for anonymous ones.
At least one questionnaire, assigned to something. Without an assignment, sessions have no form to show. To surface feedback inside the app you also need the Attendee App module and its show session feedback option — but the QR route works regardless.
One response per person per session; re-submitting overwrites rather than adding. Export is to Excel, and results are organized by session rather than rolled up per speaker.
