Moreno Valley College is the “melting pot” of the 3-colleges in the Riverside Community
College District. We have the highest population of students from culturally diverse
backgrounds.
Expected Outcome:
At each event student leaders will share information on the Program/Event, evaluate the
program/event in terms of the contents of the presentations, what worked, was the topic
relevant, list suggestions and recommendations for the future. Additionally, “Culture
Quizzes” are distributed to those in attendance to test their knowledge of the subject
matter.
Responsible Personnel:
Ms. Frankie L. Moore, Coordinator
ASMVC Student Leaders
Assistant Coordinator, Student Activities
Methods/Timeline:
 At each activity, event evaluations will be/were distributed and collected from
students in attendance.
 Approximately 30 - 40 students will fill out/filled out event evaluations and will
provide/provided feedback on the specific subject matter.
 Responses are tabulated at the end of each session and will be provided at the
end of each semester.
 “Culture Quizzes” are administered at each event. 25-35 students participate
with this activity. Prizes are awarded to students that scored 100% on the quiz.
 The Cultural Quizzes are used to test their knowledge of the subject matter and
their own background.
Actual Outcome
 Participants were reluctant to fill out and/or return event evaluations.
 Responses collected were no filled out completely.
 Participants completed the “Cultural Quizzes” and prizes were distributed to
those with 100% correct answers
Improvement Recommendations:

similar to the “Cultural Quizzes”.

“standing room only”.

end.
