STUDENT ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION:

Projects and Participation: about 50%

Projects and Participation are included in the same rubrics and are counted together in one grade for each project. You need to demonstrate a balance of craft and understanding of the materials along with focus, perseverance, and effort.

Sketchbook (Class work, Google questions, Quizes, and written Assignments): about 20%

Assignment Lateness Policy: Homework and other projects and assignments completed outside of class must be handed in on time when a due date is specified. An additional 5% for major projects and 10% for homework and smaller projects is deducted the total score each day the assignment is late.

Digital Portfolio and Semester Final: 30%

A digital gathering of projects, self-assessments, critiques from other students, and examples is required at the end of each semester. There is also a very short quiz.

In-Class Project Due Dates: If an in-class project is not completed by the last specified work day for the project, due to absence, there is a window of 1 day per absence to complete the unfinished piece. The piece must be completed outside of class time unless all current in-class work is done. Any other additional work you have completed in or out of class will be taken into consideration for the final grade.

GRADING ARTWORK or "Educational Critiquing"

1. Has the student hit all the Criteria or "Checklist Items" for the project that was given by the instructor (the "Shopping List")? Some examples:

Layout

Color Use

Subject Matter

Materials

Technique

2. What "STAGE" is the artist at technically?

Unsatisfactory: 59-0 "F" Grades (Not working, refusing work, or not making up work)

Improvement Needed: 60-69 "D" Grades (Not listening, trouble following directions, rarely working)

Emerging: 70-79 "C" Grades (Trying, but just getting the hang of it)

Practiced: 80-89 "B" Grades (Got the right ideas, but not completely...)

Proficient: 90-100 "A" Grades (You're doing it right and it shows!)

3. Art is not judged on being "Good or Bad". (Art teachers may say "Oh, that looks GOOD" or "OH, I LIKE THAT," meaning: they see that you've HIT one of the shopping list items correctly and HIT one of the two highest stages: "Practiced" or "Proficient")

4. Was there an attempt at the project? None? Some effort or Big Effort?

5. STUDENT / Teacher CRITIQUING: to give POSITIVE or CONSTRUCTIVE opinions to HELP the student create better pieces of art.

Main Goal: Assessment of the level of the art student: How much effort was placed by the student? What was learned in the process- Anything? Did they GROW as an artist? The teacher gives information to the student to: LEARN, Grow, and ultimately "future student-driven investigation".
