Program Evaluation: What, Why, and How
Wednesday, February 12, 2003, 2:30-5:00
PM
MOCHA, The Museum of Children's Art, Oakland, California
Pre-visit and follow up materials can greatly enhance the value of a
museum visit. How can museum educators create materials that teachers
will actually use? Participate in small group discussions and gain valuable
insights about the process of creating exciting, relevant, and useful
pre- and post-visit materials.
Anne Jennings and Nicki Norman from Community Resources for Science (CRS)
will share their expertise in weaving connections between the needs of
individual teachers and the existing resources in our community.
Education Specialist Gail Ellis brings 25 years of classroom teaching
experience to The Oakland Zoo. She will talk about the process of creating
post-visit materials for The Oakland Zoo School.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own pre- and post-visit materials
(or works-in-progress) for review in roundtable workshop groups.
