The Top 10 Reasons Why Art Assessment Matters....
1. Program Evaluation: Know if your curriculum is working!
2. Program Saving: Lets face it, the arts are the first to be cut. Don’t you want data to fight back and show WHY you should be saved?
3. Accountability: It makes you become more explicit about your teaching, making sure you are hitting the things that matter most.
4. Intimidating: Yes, you really put yourself out there when numbers are attached to YOUR teaching and YOUR students learning.
5. Risks: Obtaining data lets you take risks with your teaching and helps you grow as a teacher.
6. Teacher Reflection: Data shows a teacher EXACTLY what his or her students are not understanding.
7. Student Reflection: Data shows students and parents EXACTLY what studnets are learning
8. Pride: Having data to back your program gives you a sense of pride at what you have accomplished.
9. Innovative: There are so many schools that are not using arts assessments. Be proactive!
10. Lets Face It, our Kids Deserve it: Showing growth (through a variety of methods) is one way we are doing justice to our students and their learning.
DATA DOES NOT HAVE TO MEAN TEST SCORES!!!
