Because
art teachers measure student skills using independent judgment, they
need another method to grade student work. Performance-based assessment
has been shown to be much more effective in evaluating student
performance. Art teachers have always been ahead of the game with
performance-based assessments by using portfolios.
To make their judgment more consistent and fair, art teachers need
to create rubrics for grading. To make a rubric, a teacher first needs
to
know exactly what constitutes "A" work. Rubrics can improve student
work by letting students know exactly what's expected of them.
Rubrics
provide feedback to students about their work in specific areas of a
project. You can also allow students to revise their projects
based on your feedback on their rubrics. It is important to use clear
and measureable language with rubrics. For example, the level of
quality called, "creative project" must be defined. What exactly is
creative?
Rubrics have a column for the criteria for your lesson- the aspect of
the assignment you want graded. The rows are generally the level of
quality with the assignment from excellent to poor. Students may assess
their own work with rubrics.
The hardest part is creating your rubric. Once you do, you've made
grading much easier and save time in the long run- especially if you
reuse them for other classes.
