What
happens at the end of an art course? The answer is the end of course assessment.
How is such an assessment conducted properly?
Students
may be given an allotted time to attend the assessment with all the work as set
out in the criteria requirement. The agreement as set out in the mock
assessment may be referred to if necessary or appropriate. Again, praise
whenever the opportunity arises. The final marking should never be a surprise
and the student should be informed on exactly why a particular marking has been
awarded. This will prevent nasty surprises.

| Criterion for Assessments |
The
teacher may write a short feedback on the student’s work, relating to the
creative use of materials, the painting style and willingness to try new ideas.
How to Evaluate Art
Work
The
student has the opportunity to write a feedback on the learning experience,
which might include the teaching, the resources or the institution’s policies.
The teacher may collate this information and use it for self-evaluation.
Recurrent themes may crop up, which might highlight a need for change. The
feedback may inform on anything relating to the learner’s experience within the
module and indeed can be invaluable to the teacher. The following list serves as
a guide.
