Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program students will have a quality learning experience in a new art form. Evaluation will occur through a participant questionnaire and notes related to personal observation.

Measurable Outcome(s)

More students participated than originally planned. The Art Show was attended maybe a bit more poorly than expected due to inclement winter weather. In terms of evaluation, meetings were held with Trey and faculty to review the success of the program. Questionnaires were distributed and data was collected to back up the ideas learned. Art students that participated learned a new technique (calligrams) when illustrating art. The material the students engaged in deepened the experience.
