Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project fifth grade students will learn about the art of photography and take photographs demonstrating that artistic skill. Evaluation will take place through questionnaire asking about student learning and person feelings, observation and interview questions with the supervising staff.

Measurable Outcome(s)

100% of students in grade five indicated the residency taught them more about photography and they enjoyed learning from the photography artist, Mica Lee Anders. It was our goal to have students learn about the art of photography which they did by creating artistic photographs and printing them to create pieces of art.
The questionnaire was completed, as well as communications with the fifth grade staff.
