2021 Opening Minds to Science The Saint Louis Science Center’s Report to the Community


“[I enjoyed] showing my son the same dinosaurs that my parents showed me when I was a kid.” Science Center Guest March 2021

“ Really appreciated having to make a reservation as I think that really helped spread out the crowd. It made it much easier and more enjoyable to read all the signs at the exhibits, etc. while allowing COVID safe-spacing.”

“So many fun things to see. It’s changed a bit since going two years ago, which is good. We liked the game section. My son especially liked the eSports area.” Science Center Guest July 2021

Science Center Guest July 2021

“ The staff was incredibly friendly, outgoing, knowledgeable, and very welcoming. The whole place looked and even smelled very clean. Our son LOVED the dinosaur exhibits, the roller coaster in space simulator ride, and… an incredible film in the OMNIMAX theatre that just blew him away. This experience at the Science Center helped make this one of the best weekends of my family’s lives. Thank you!” Science Center Guest April 2021


From the President and Chief Executive Officer

Todd Bastean Dear Friends of the Saint Louis Science Center, I am pleased to introduce the eighth edition of Opening Minds to Science – The Saint Louis Science Center’s Report to the Community, 2021.

“We always love the Planetarium shows. We enjoyed the computer games in the Life Science section. And we always enjoy the Mars Mission section.” Science Center Guest June 2021

This report reviews key findings from our audience research work from 2021, including an overview of our general public visitation demographics, guest satisfaction ratings, and a look at how evaluation informs the development and review of our exhibit galleries and programs, including the addition of the Discover Science with Me program for early learners and the new Inside the Vault exhibit featuring items from our collection. Although the past two years have had their challenges, we are proud of how our team continued to serve our community, providing a welcoming and exciting Science Center experience, while addressing health concerns. The success of these efforts is evident when reviewing our guest satisfaction scores throughout the year. While this report reflects on 2021, the Science Center is actively planning for the future. Science happens around us every day – from healthcare and medical advancements to food, technology, and much more. We are excited for what the future holds as we use hands-on, informal learning to connect our guests and the community with science happening in our own backyard and around the world. We hope you are equally excited to join us on this journey. Sincerely,

Our Data Why is this work important? How do we learn about our audiences? Our guests and their experiences are central to everything we do at the Saint Louis Science Center. We use audience research and evaluation to better understand our guests and their experiences with Science Center offerings. This helps the Science Center team make informed decisions in the planning and review of exhibits, programs, and operations. This work is done following best practices in the field of visitor studies.

Data presented in this report were systematically collected and analyzed through a variety of studies, including: Exit Surveys of adult, general public guests that provide key information, including demographics, visitation patterns, and likelihood of recommending the Science Center. The Science Center is one of over 30 science museums across North America participating in the Collaboration for Ongoing Visitor Experience Studies (COVES) where all participating institutions collect comparative visitor data through a common exit survey. COVES is managed by the Research & Evaluation team at the Museum of Science, Boston. Post-Visit Email Surveys sent to guests who made online reservations. In 2021, these types of surveys were used to collect feedback about general visit experiences as well as specific activities such as Laser Shows in the James S. McDonnell Planetarium.

Online Community Surveys where St. Louis area residents who have visited cultural attractions in the previous three years are invited to participate in an online study used to assess general awareness of the Science Center as well as gauge interest in potential new offerings. Program Evaluation Studies, in which the feedback participants provide via interviews and surveys are used to assess overall effectiveness of educational programs and inform decisions on modifications to program design. In this report, we highlight evaluation of the Discover Science with Me program for young learners. Focus Groups where participants are recruited to participate in a facilitated discussion about a particular topic. In 2021, focus groups were used to support the development of the Inside the Vault exhibit showcasing items from the Science Center’s Collection.

Some of the data that are used in this publication were made available through the Collaboration for Ongoing Visitor Experience Studies (COVES). Neither the Museum of Science (Boston) staff nor COVES bear any responsibility for the results or conclusions presented here.


People Served How many people does the Saint Louis Science Center reach?

Guest Satisfaction How do guests rate their Science Center experience? The Science Center’s exit surveys, which use a common set of questions from the multiinstitutional Collaboration for Ongoing Visitor Experience Studies (COVES), provide two broad measures of satisfaction: the Overall Experience Rating (OER) and the Net Promoter Score (NPS®). Additionally, in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, questions related to health concerns were added to the survey and provide another perspective on the guest experience during this time. -100

Overall Experience Rating (OER) The Overall Experience Rating (OER), which measures satisfaction, was developed and tested by the Smithsonian Institution. Many cultural institutions have since adopted it and it is included on the COVES exit survey tool. The OER asks respondents to rate their visit as “Poor,” “Fair,” “Good,” “Excellent,” or “Outstanding.” By providing an option that exceeds “Excellent,” the OER scale allows for greater differentiation about visit satisfaction than other measures. Less than Excellent Poor 0.2%

Fair 1.2% Good 11% Good 11%

2021 SLSC NPS

Net Promoter Score (NPS®) The NPS, which asks guests how likely they would be to recommend visiting the Science Center, is a question used in a variety of service industries. On a scale of 0 – “Not at all likely” to recommend to 10 – “Extremely likely” to recommend, those who provide a rating of ‘9’ or ‘10’ are considered “Promoters,” those giving a rating of ‘7’ or ‘8’ are considered “Passives,” and those whose rating is ‘6’ or lower are considered “Detractors.” The NPS is calculated by subtracting the percentage of Detractors from the percentage of Promoters, therefore the NPS scores can range from -100 to 100. In 2021, the Science Center’s NPS was 74.5, with 65% of respondents selecting the highest rating of ‘10,’ indicating a high level of satisfaction. For comparison, the aggregate NPS for science museums participating in COVES was 73.8.


Addressing Health Concerns Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, two questions were added to the COVES survey to address guest comfort with coming back to museums and to assess how well museums were doing in addressing health safety concerns guests may have had prior to their visit. Although patterns varied during the year as local case numbers fluctuated and restrictions such as mask mandates changed, overall, the majority of respondents (56%) indicated that they were “Not at all concerned” about their or their group’s health and safety at the Science Center amid the pandemic. Of the 44% who expressed some level of concern, approximately half indicated that the Science Center “Fully addressed” their concerns.

“I appreciate the requirement to wear masks and the enforcement by staff.” Science Center Guest September 2021

“I really liked how the IMAX was spread out with the reduced capacity and someone helping facilitate where to sit. Felt very safe.” Science Center Guest January 2021

Program Evaluation – Discover Science with Me What did we learn from guest feedback about a new offering for early learners?

75%

of survey respondents were “Extremely Likely” to recommend the program to friends

“There was natural scaffolding and challenge built into the activities to meet diverse needs and interest of all kids.”

In response to health and safety concerns due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Science Center paused its traditional Discovery Room experience in 2020. To address continued interest in experiences designed specifically for early learners, educators developed a new offering, Discover Science with Me. Using a structure that better accommodated COVID-19 safety protocols, this program provided early learners and their caregivers opportunities to engage in guided, hands-on science activities, designed around changing themes.

During Spring 2021, the Science Center worked with students from Harvard University’s Graduate School of Education to collect feedback about participants’ experience in the Discover Science with Me program. Adult participants were invited to provide their email address in order to participate in a post-visit survey and/or interview about their experience. The researchers received a total of 20 survey responses and conducted six interviews via Zoom. Satisfaction with the program was high, with 80% of survey respondents rating the experience as either “Outstanding” or “Great.” Additionally, three-quarters of respondents indicated they were “Extremely Likely” to recommend the program.

“Opportunities for children to do things they cannot do at home.” “The two guides were amazing. Loved the materials.” Participants’ highlights included the interactions with the educators, the balance of choice and structure in the design of the program, and the small group setting that allowed groups to be in a public space in a COVID-safe way. Most respondents felt the activities were ageappropriate, fun, engaging, and educational. Some respondents were concerned that the price ($25 for a table of up to five people) could be cost prohibitive for some guests.

Exhibit Evaluation – Inside the Vault How do focus groups help us develop new exhibits? The goal of front-end evaluation is to understand what audiences know, are interested in, or have questions about on a particular topic. Focus groups are a useful tool for gathering this input through a structured, yet flexible dialogue that allows for deeper exploration of themes than a survey. For the new Inside the Vault exhibit, the Research & Evaluation team conducted three focus groups to gain insight into visitors’ perceptions of collections in general, collections at the Science Center in particular, and reactions to mini-displays of objects planned for the full exhibit. The focus groups also allowed exhibit development team members to directly observe participants’ reactions, questions, and interest in the content. Through the course of the discussions, several key themes emerged, which helped inform the artifact presentation and storytelling the team developed to accompany the displays: • C ompared to personal collections, participants thought of collections at museums as more unique, rare, valuable, or significant. – “ I think that the collections from museums should have that sort of rarity, much more researched type of presentation.” – Focus Group 1 Participant – “ I think about the value…it’s on display because of its value for the people who are coming to the museum. The value of it — the pricelessness of it.” – Focus Group 2 Participant • P articipants were curious to know detailed information about individual objects. – “ When were they [fossils] found?” – Focus Group 1 Participant – “ How were these objects [miniatures] created?” – Focus Group 1 Participant – “ How [do] these different minerals form?” – Focus Group 2 Participant – “ What was used to power them [lamps]? Oils? Fats?” – Focus Group 2 Participant – “ What impact, what significance does it [any object] have?” – Focus Group 3 Participant 14

• O pportunities for deeper engagement with artifacts through augmentations such as touchable models, immersive sounds, or activity guides were appealing. – “ A functioning reproduction would be awesome.” – Focus Group 2 Participant – “ Sound effects.” – Focus Group 3 Participant – “ You have…those 3D objects that…you can really look into and everything, but then you also have things on the wall…and that tells you the story a little bit as you go. And there’s also…interactive videos…telling you more for whatever your interest level is.” – Focus Group 1 Participant • C larity between the arrangement of objects and their corresponding labels is important. – “ I love it when they have like a miniature topdown view of the display where you can see, ‘okay this is...’” – Focus Group 1 Participant – “ I love placards when they have it right next to the device.” – Focus Group 2 Participant


“Nostalgia, great music, and making new memories with my kid.”

Laser Show Feedback What do guests say about their experience attending Laser Shows?

85%

“Have more shows!”

of respondents rated their Laser Show experience as either “Excellent” or “Outstanding.” “Have Planetarium entrance open so you don’t have to walk so far.”

“[Need] more comfortable seating.”

“Loved the music and visual effects. It is fun to have a different kind of entertainment experience.”

During 2021, the Science Center offered Laser Shows in the James S. McDonnell Planetarium on select dates in July, October, and December. Following the October and December showings, attendees were invited to participate in an online survey to share feedback about their experiences. A total of 318 people responded. Attendees enjoyed the uniqueness of the laser show experience, including both the musical and visual elements. They also told us that they would like more comfortable seating, more convenient access to the Planetarium building, and for Laser Shows to happen more often. Respondent Age Ranges 25–34 11%

Interest in Esports at the Science Center How does a community study provide insight into interest in esports programs? Inspired by the success of the innovative GameXPloration gallery, the Science Center began to explore the world of esports — a growing industry of competitive video gaming that integrates STEM skills such as coding, problem solving, and critical thinking. To assess interest in this area, questions about potential esports activities were included in a broader community study designed to gather data from a sample of 600 St. Louis area residents who had visited any cultural attraction in the previous three years.

Who is interested in esports? • A majority of respondents (59%) said that at least one person in their households would be interested in exploring esports at the Science Center. • S ignificantly more men (27%) expressed interest than women (15%). • T hose who visit the Science Center five or more times per year were more likely to have at least one child who would be interested in esports (48%). • T hose age 44 or younger were the most interested in esports.

There is a wide range of interest in esports programs among both children and adults, but both age and gender do play a role in that interest. Additionally, those who did not express interest in esports often indicated that they were unfamiliar with esports in general, so this gap in understanding could be a starting point for future programs.
