The process evaluation examined seven elements of the ARC: (1) Recruiter Candidates, (2) Course Content, (3) Instructional Strategies, (4) Media and Materials, (5) Instructors, (6) Instructional Environment, and (7) Student Evaluation Procedures. The outcome evaluation examined the attitudes that students and instructors held toward the ARC. Student achievement data and attitudes toward the course were collected through observations, interviews, and questionnaires. Data were also collected from instructors. Correlational analyses and multivariate tests, along with other procedures, were used to examine the data. The course is regarded positively by both students (past and present) and instructors. Negative correlations between course evaluations and test performance were found, with the exception of performance in the Recruiter Exercise. Generally, the data indicated that the better the student, the more negative the evaluation. In summary, the ARC is effective and is meeting its primary goal. (sdw).
