Assessment
Assessment
Part of the artistic process is a cycle of assessment/reflection and revision/growth. Assessments are used for grading skill development, but more importantly, are viewed as an integral part of our creating, performing, and reflecting process.
Assessment is integrated throughout class for the purposes of guiding student work, self-assessment, peer-assessment and teacher feedback.
Assessment tools:
- Performance checklists & rubrics
- Reflection journals
