Assessment Pre/post tests and Data in Art

I decided to read an out of one of my favorite websites "The Art of Education." The article was called "Using Pre & Post Tests to Measure Student Growth in Art: Part 1." In the article she defines what her objects of are and has the kids do a pretest so she knows what to focus on. Some of the objectives were proportion and perspective. She asked the students to define these terms and to draw a small sketch of what this would look like. I like that there was both a written response and a visual response to the questions. She then used data by checking off if they mastered the objectives. She used a roster and listed the objects so that the data would be easy to keep track of. She did this for 2 fourth grade classes. Even thought it is 4th grade it will still be easy and helpful for me to be able to incorporate this into my HS classroom.
