Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Measurable Outcome(s)
Comments from hosting librarian: Instructor read 2 books: one with tales of dragons with different powers and one showing meanings for Chinese characters. Students made their own dragon headpeace and drew some characters. Excellent program. Instructor kept the students engaged for the full two hours. No press release, so the attendance was lower than expected.
