How do you assess student artwork? ***
(What I want students to learn: content, techniques, etc.)
I assess student artwork using a clearly structured and labeled final rubric; these rubrics include sections on relevant cultural aspects, craft, participation, and lesson specific material. I also incorporate reflections and questions that check for comprehension of content and aesthetic choices (more rigorous as the age increases). I feel that it is important to clearly explain through scoring and written comments why a student received a certain grade so they know how to better approach or finish the following lessons. I also have students complete self-assessments. This means that I consider both summative and formative assessment for each lesson; due to the subjective nature of art and the value of data in a school district it is important to be as thorough as possible when approaching grading at any age level.
Difficult to measure, but important to consider: effort, participation, attitude - progress.
FORMATIVE
-in-progress critique
-self-assessment
SUMMATIVE
-written feedback
-rubric
