Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

During the 2013-2014 school year, Jill Krase will share her expertise in bookmaking with approximately 45 high school students. The majority of the participants will report learning new skills and techniques. The majority of students will recommend Ms. Krase be invited to more artist residencies.Each participant in the residency will complete a survey listing skills, techniques, and vocabulary the student learned in the residency. Students will also rank the artist and the experience using a rating scale.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Our goal was for 45 students to create books. 18 created flagbooks and an additional 38 created box books and hexagon books for a total of 56 students. The majority ranked their experience with Ms. Krase as a 9-10 or excellent.
