Underserved students in two Minnesota communities will engage in the creation and performance of a stage work giving expression to their personal stories. SPDT will implement its Evaluation Plan of daily class discussions, student journals, daily company meetings, evaluation forms, electronic surveys, wrap-up meetings and videos of performances. 2: ALL core students will participate in two weeks of classes as well as the creation and performance of a new stagework that gives expression to their individual stories. The accessibility of the project will be evaluated by assessing the adaptations and accommodations implemented for the diversity of needs (physical, behavioral, language, etc.) of the core learners.
SPDT presented two-week residencies in Rochester and Detroit Lakes, engaging over 2,000 Minnesotans through workshops, classes, and performances. SPDT implemented its evaluation matrix for each residency in this project: Daily Written Student Journal Reflections; Evaluation Forms for Students and Teachers; Feedback from Staff via email; Parent/Family Questionnaires collected; Daily and Weekly Assessment Meetings for Teaching Artists; Daily Progress Assessment Meetings w/ Classroom Teachers and School Staff; Talk Piece Audience/Artist Conversation following Holmes performance; Post-Project Review of Videos by SPDT teaching artists and staff. 2: All core students at ALC and Audubon were engaged in two weeks of creating original performance work based on their personal stories and experiences. SPDT's teaching artists met daily as a team before and after class to discuss lesson plans, goals, and progress and to make any necessary project adjustments. They also held daily and weekly meetings with the classroom teachers and staff to share feedback and assess progress. The students were given journals in which they wrote daily responses throughout the project period. At both project sites, evaluation forms were disseminated to students, teachers, staff, parents, and families.
