A survey of the faculty in the Fall 2008 revealed a mixed reaction to the use of a wiki as an information source regarding the activities, opportunities and news related information for the SI Office of Research and Innovation. We had only 11 total responses to our survey. 8 of whom had current active awards and 3 of whom did not. 7 of the faculty respondents access the wiki and 4 do not.
For the 7 faculty who access the wiki they do so infrequently, with only one accessing the wiki once a month, the rest are less frequent. You access it primarily to find information (see reasons below) and access it only when you get an email reminder from Ann. 6 out of 7 are interested in an RSS feed, which Ann will explore, especially if we move this wiki to the confluence platform.
Below are the reasons for accessing the site and the usefulness scale ran from somewhat useful (4), useful (2) to very useful (1). Which indicates we have some helpful information here.
For the 4 faculty who responded who do not use the wiki it is clear you would use the wiki if you were reminded or had an rss feed notifying you of changes and updates and linked you to the wiki's url.
