Offering a contemporary overview of how visual art teachers assess learning in their classrooms, this book provides an outline of the role of assessment in reporting not only student achievement but also how student assessment ties to the intrinsic and external assessments of teacher performance.Compiled using stories from the classrooms of 19 visual art high school teachers who share their approaches to benchmarking student success, the text encourages teachers to consider assessment both for guiding their students to achieve artistic goals and for re-envisioning their own curriculum and instruction. The featured assessment snapshots fall along four strands: Visual Narratives and Visual Literacy; Capturing Empathic Understandings and Social Engagement; Measuring Risk-taking and Ingenuity; and Assessing Collaborative and Integrated Learning Outcomes. Across these sections, teacher contributors offer different perspectives for student assessment, capturing a snapshot of the work of skilled practitioners and focusing on various aspects of what can be evidenced and analyzed through formative and summative evaluation. The voices of university level art educators are also included to expand the range of context from curriculum and instruction content that is covered in pre-service art methods courses. All sections also conclude with a summary, questions, and discussion points.Including diverse teacher voices as well as presenting assessment perspectives with an eye to the National Core Art Standards (NCAS), this book is ideal for pre-service and in-service secondary art educators, as well as for use in art education teacher certification courses that focus on secondary methods, and art education graduate classes in assessment.

"The National Art Education Association is proud to support the integrity and diligent efforts of Cathy Smilan and Richard Siegesmund in bringing this book to light. We are also honored to serve and promote the industrious nature of the visual arts educators who shared their knowledge and experiences to make this work possible. The tireless commitment of these art educators not only shaped the context of this volume, but also the learning outcomes of countless students who received guidance—as well as creative and artistic success—under their instruction."-National Art Education Association (NAEA)"By illustrating diverse methods and procedures, this book argues for and defines a new language of assessment that enhances instruction and guides student growth while fostering authentic artistic expression. Instead of advocating for a complete shift from epistemological to ontological perspectives, this book emphasizes the importance of integrating ontological philosophies alongside epistemological ones in assessment practices. This balanced approach, in my opinion, is a distinguishing feature of the book."-Elly Yazdanpanah, PhD, The University of British Columbia, for Teachers College Record, July 2024
