My student from workshop 1 left very positive feedback for my workshop and rated it 5/5 for exploring intersectionality and being inclusive. They said they enjoyed engaging with the objects most and confirmed they didn’t experience any barriers to learning. For the question relating to how I could improve this workshop for future students, they thoughtfully suggested I give students ideas for other objects they could explore in our collection related to intersectionality. This gave me the idea to create a public collection on our online catalogue to include in the post-workshop resources section of the Padlet.
The feedback from workshop 2 was also very encouraging. Out of all five responses so far, all students gave me 5/5 for exploring intersectionality and being inclusive and thought the workshop was timed just right. Learning about Intersectionality and Engaging with Museum objects scored as the top two most interesting aspects of the workshop, followed by having safe group discussions. The constructive feedback left for me was to include more pictures, which I agree with and to let students drink or eat in the section before objects come out.
