Visitor surveys are used to obtain an insight to find out who are the target groups to come to museum and their behaviors. They help to indicate how well the services offered by the museum meet visitors' needs in the spirit of 'customer first'. The National Science and Technology Museum first opened its doors to the public on November 9, 1997, and the museum staff has carried out two visitor surveys - the first from November 12 to 18, 1997, and the second from October 16 to 25, 1998. The target of both surveys was museum visitors ten years old and up using prepared questionnaires and random sampling methods. A comparison of the visitor profiles for the two periods (shortly after opening and nearly a year later) showed a number of facts including the following: 84.2% and 86.4% respectively were 40 years old or younger; 34.6% and 40.7% were students; and 84.8%and 65.7% were from southern Taiwan. Some 40% are revisitors, and most learned about the museum through teachers, other students, friends and family. The data from these surveys will also be used to determine levels of satisfaction among visitors regarding service and gain other insights into the make-up of people coming to the museum. It will be used as a reference in making changes and adjustments as needed in the future. |
