Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this residency, students in grades 7-12 will have the opportunity learn about visual art and be inspired to create drawings and paintings with visual artist, Katrina Knutson. Evaluation will occur through questionnaire with staff and students. They will indicate if they learned more about the art form and if they enjoyed the residency. They will also be asked for comments about the residency. The staff, project director and artist will also discuss the success and needs of the residency.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Students when surveyed indicated they learned more about visual arts from the artist. After project director observation and conferencing with the supervising teachers it was noted that a positive experience was had by students that participated in these visual arts classes. Students involved received individual attention, instruction and had the ability to make projects at their own pace. Students in the jewelry class were so excited to create from a multitude of jewelry components.
