Designing Effective Assessment Practices

4 PD Hours

  • 1 Identify and develop assessment tools that are aligned with standards, program, and personal teaching values.

  • 2 Integrate and plan a variety of formative assessment strategies to support summative goals and guide future learning and instruction.

  • 3 Develop a culture of learning through ongoing, timely, and appropriate student feedback.

Assessment can sometimes feel like a “dirty word” in art education. Art teachers understand its purpose in other subject areas, but it never seems to organically complement what is happening in the art room. As a result, assessment is often an afterthought in many art programs. But what if there was a better way? Join assessment expert Janet Taylor as she demystifies the art assessment cycle and explains manageable ways to design and integrate authentic assessment into your classroom routine.
