Track engagement in classes on offer at different venues; surveys measuring project participant assessment of quality, learning, and satisfaction at 75% or greater. 2: Geographic and economic access to high quality creative writing classes is provided in west-central Minnesota to engage populations in the area. Project activities are scheduled at four venues throughout west-central Minnesota; surveys indicate 70% or greater participant satisfaction with cost and location of project activities; two full scholarships per class are provided.
A total of twenty-eight people were engaged in high quality classes, and four prospective Loft teaching artists in west-central Minnesota attended the AWP conference. We tracked registrations for classes via the Loft’s dedicated web page, and monitored the response from the LRWN service area. We asked students to complete surveys after they finished their classes. We also solicited and gathered direct feedback from students and teaching artists. 2: Economic and geographic access barriers were addressed and mitigated through scholarships, online access, and efforts to provide on-site activities. We identified venues in west-central Minnesota communities for project activities, monitored the scholarship application and award process, and surveyed student participants in the three classes that were held. We also solicited and gathered direct feedback from students and teaching artists.
