When the classroom teacher is assessing a students work in my classroom, she is using a grading rubric that is developed based on the assignment that was given. The assignments is these classes are based on the the specific class that is being taught. My teacher teaches art levels 2 and 4, and digital media. Each class is designed for the students to seek within themselves and within their culture to determine the motivation and ideas for their work. For example in the level 4 class the theme is: Time, Spirituality, Structure, and Power. The class focuses on Art and it's function in society based on ethnicity, culture, and diversity. Each student is encouraged to put their personal stamp on their projects in order to express their individuality. The teacher pays special attention to the topics that are being raised in the students work, and the meaning that is behind it. Students are also required to write reflections about their work to explain the meaning behind it, and how the materials that were used help to bring the art work and personal meaning to life. The teacher grades based on effort and work quality, urging the students to provide the best quality possible in their works as they are working from the heart. She encourages diversity in the classroom, and embraces all that is brought to the drawing board.
