VISUAL ARTS GRADING RUBRIC



Art is not a subject that can easily be graded based on written or 
oral testing.  Since art is a subjective topic, not everyone views 
the same work with the same opinion.  

The following is a guide to my grading system:

A(90-100)   = MEETS OR EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS.
B(89-90)    = MEETS MOST EXPECTATIONS.
C(79-70)    = MEETS SOME EXPECTATIONS.
F(69-BELOW) = DOES NOT MEET DEFINED EXPECTATIONS.

Every student will have the opportunity to talk to me about grades 
during the course.  If you feel you have been critiqued unfairly, 
please address the subject with me, not your classmates.  Grades are 
a private matter and you should never compare your work or grades to 
another.  

"Remember every member of your class has the opportunity to make 
an "A" in art."

As your teacher, I will base your grades on the following criteria.  
This will ensure a fair evaluation for everyone's work.

1 Quality of craftmanship.
2 Originality of ideas.
3 Use of creativity and imagination.
4 Cooperation and teamwork with fellow art students on joint projects.
5 Participation in class discussion and overviews.
6 Willingness to accept new ideas and constructive criticism.
7 Comprehension of design elements and principles.
8 Demonstration of organizational skills.
9 Neatness of overall project.
10 Project completed by the assigned due date.
