Evaluation of Tele-link Program between SNU and UCLA

Abstract

This paper is a description and evaluaton of the Tele-link program between Seoul National University and University of California, Los Angeles, which was implemented through April 25 to June 8(Korean time) as the first stage of a three year project. The major goal of this paper is to gauge the program's effects on the program, which can be used for modifying the program to better cater to the needs of the prospective program participants. A qualitative, ethnomethodological evaluation method is used to this end, using first-hand observation of the program as well as the administration of questionnaires and interviews as the major tool of data collection. Based on the analysis of available data, a number of recommendations are offered for consideration for future implementation.
