Goals, Objectives & Expectations


Classroom Procedures and Expectations
(The Behavior Manifesto)

It will be expected that each student consistently come to class on time and is involved everyday in the development of their project responsibilities.  We will follow the required procedures of the art room by; obeying school rules, showing respect to others, listening when the teacher is speaking, maintaining a clean and safe work space, getting appropriate authorizations, valuing classroom materials and the potential for unnecessary waste, respectfully cleaning after one’s self, properly stowing artwork in progress and returning tools and other such materials to the appropriate locations. Excessive absences and tardies could significantly affect a student's academic standing in the class.  


Grading

The projects will be assessed on the basis that students work diligently and use care and thoughtful consideration in the conception, construction and development of each project.  Grades might be given during specific stages in the development of each project and/or for the final finished piece. It is important that each student develop their work in the required timeline and avoid a last minute attempt to complete the assignment. To assure a quality piece, it is imperative that the artist establish the proper time for reflection and revision to ensure well finished and resolved artwork.  In the event that students do not take their work seriously or do not use their time constructively, the grades will reflect that unfortunate behavior. In the event that a final project does not fully function or reach its intended outcome, the grade will take into account and reflect the amount of effort the student contributed to the work.  The ultimate “dissatisfaction” of a piece that has been sufficiently labored over may not hurt one’s academic standing in the class (provided they adequately addressed all requirements), for the simple fact that this is an opportunity to learn, and the vast potential for learning happens even in the face of ultimate dissatisfaction. 

General Art Rubric

Students will be assessed according to this general course rubric, as well as, project specific objectives.

It will be expected that each student strive to achieve these 4 goals :   Grades will reflect the degree in which the project satisfies each category. 

1.       Effort-     shows that one is engaged and devoted to the challenge of the project
2.       Craftsmanship-     takes the time to craft a well produced and thoughtful product
3.       Creativity-      shows evidence self expression and imagination 
4.       Originality –   has a distinct, and individual style and approach

The bulk of the assessment will be gauged with close attention to “effort” and “craftsmanship”. 

“A+” -  Work must possess ”unique” qualities, show evidence of thoughtful “creativity”, produced with quality “craftsmenship”, and approached with strong “effort”.

“A” - Evidence of thoughtful “creativity”, produced with quality “craftsmenship”, and approached with strong “effort”.

“A-“ -  Work must be produced with quality “craftsmenship”, and approached with strong “effort”.

“B+” and below -  Work shows lesser degrees of all or some of the above categories.
