In SpreaView, presentations (or sessions) are the core content of any conference. They are what attendees experience and review, and what speakers are evaluated on. Presentations are always part of a conference and must be properly configured to ensure accurate scheduling and meaningful feedback collection.

Presentation Overview

Each presentation in SpreaView includes the following:

  • Title – The name of the session or talk.
  • Abstract – A brief description or summary of the content.
  • Presentation Code – A unique, read-only identifier automatically assigned to each presentation.
  • Speakers – One or more speakers associated with the session.
  • Track – The room or location where the session takes place. Assigning a track is mandatory.
  • Start and End Date & Time – The scheduled time for the presentation.

All these fields work together to ensure attendees can review the correct session and that speakers receive timely feedback.

Required Fields

To create a presentation, you must provide:

  1. A title
  2. At least one speaker
  3. An assigned track
  4. A start time and end time

⚠️ A presentation cannot be created without assigning a valid track and at least one speaker.

Review Time Windows

Review availability for presentations is automatically determined by your conference settings:

  • Each conference defines a default review window duration (e.g., 4 hours).
  • The review period starts at the session’s scheduled start time and ends after the configured duration.
  • This ensures attendees can leave feedback in a timely and relevant window after attending a presentation.

Speaker Feedback Access

All speakers assigned to a presentation can:

  • Access their speaker dashboard in SpreaView.

  • View session feedback in near real-time, including:

    • Star ratings for speaker, content, delivery, and interaction
    • Optional free-text comments
    • Aggregate scores and trends (if enabled by the organizer)

This helps speakers improve their sessions and gain insight into how their talks are received by attendees.
