Conclusions :
An explanation
did not
influence if
visitors studied
the signs or
conversed
about the
kiosk.
Conclusions:
46% participated in
some way with the
kiosk and
42% voted with at
least one washer.
Guests who
did not
receive an
explanation
were more
likely to pass
the kiosk
without
stopping.
Recommendations:
The explanation about the washers is
a useful tool, but could be optional in
the afternoon.
Have an adult
volunteer
stationed at the
kiosk to
promote guests
spending more
time at the
kiosk.
Thank You!
