Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Quantitatively, we are planning to have 50 participants participate in our class activities. Qualitatively, we hope that 90% of the participants indicate that their knowledge of the Hmong arts have increased.During each session, we will keep track of the numbers of participants. We will also be administering surveys to see how well we have achieved our goals for each class.
Measurable Outcome(s)
This year we had 47 students. About 33% of them were new to our program. We had about 60 people attend the final showcase. 100% of our students have said that they learned a lot from the program and would like to participate again if it was offered.
