Measures student learning outcomes at the end of a lesson or project but does not result in a final, numeric grade. The results help identify levels of student achievement, assign in-progress grades, and provide feedback with the intention of helping students grow.
Summative Assessment
Apply this first in order to identify the learning goals that are important for students to accomplish.
Backwards Design
Busy teachers can use this model to assign numeric grades using objectives or "I can" target statements unpacked from standards.
Simplified Numeric Scoring
This refers to the ability of an assessment to measure or appraise what it intends to.
Validity
An informal assessment that collects data during a lesson to identify what students understand and what they have yet to understand.
Formative Assessment
Measure how well the student achieved their learning target based on their finished artwork, which are usually given in the form of numeric grades.
Performance assessments
Assessing student behaviors formatively and checking for understanding without assigning grades. It transpires through one-on-one, small group, and whole-class interactions.
Informal Assessment
A scoring device in table format that contains measurable objectives or daily learning targets written in student-friendly language with "I can" statements.
A Rubric
An assessment's ability to produce similar results, given comparable circumstances and students' unchanged baseline knowledge
Reliability
Performance-based assessments with real-life decisions and behaviors that directly relate to what a professional does in their career.
Authentic Assessments
Measured by numeric scores.
Quantitative Assessments
This is a process of collecting data during a learning activity to identify what students understand and have yet to comprehend.
Formative Assessment
This lists learning outcomes next to symbols that represent the level of performance students can achieve. Teachers and students mark the appropriate symbol to categorize the degree of performance on a particular target.
A Rating Scale
The part of a rubric that clearly describes the quality of a student’s performance within a learning target (or criterion).
Descriptive Indicator of Performance
Measure student expressive outcomes and focus on the whole student.
Qualitative Assessments
Assessing students by using numeric scores and grades, usually at the end of a project, unit, or course.
Formal Assessment
The final assessment that measures learning targets at the completion of one or more.
Summative Assessment
This measures specific actions and observable behaviors students should be able to achieve on a task without rating the quality of the performance indicator like a rating scale does. Teachers may use this when grades are not required, but specified student actions need to be documented.
A Checklist
An approach to art curriculum design that places student choice at the center of the classroom.
Choice-Based Art Curriculum
Assessing student behaviors and understanding formatively without assigning grades.
Informal Assessment
Assessments made by students that measure how well they, a peer, or the entire class met their learning targets.
Summative Self/Peer/Group Assessment
Summative assessment results are useful in identifying the following...
Levels of student achievement, assigning diagnostic grades, and providing feedback with the intention of helping students grow.
For a choice-based curriculum, this assessment instruments contains a collection of student selected artifacts created over an extended time.
Universal student learning targets for the 2nd, 5th, 8th, and high school grade levels that work together with the state and national art standards.
Model Cornerstone Assessments (MCAs)
Assessments made by students that measure progress relating to learning targets for themselves, a peer, or the entire class.
Formative Self/Peer/Group Assessment
