Assessing student ACP progress in Art- Have your say!
In Art, we have recognised that breaking down each ACP skill and linking it to each taught art skill is really beneficial as students are not only enhancing their artistic skills but also understanding how they are developing their cognitive skills when learning and exploring.
We have built an assessment framework that combines art assessment with ACP development so that we can recognise student development and progress over time, for example, a student who might not be the most skilled drawer could still be recognised as making significant progress within their Creating, Analysing and Linking skills because they are able to: 'create new ideas, identify solutions drawing on prior knowledge, adopt new ideas to enhance their work..'
The world of art provides opportunities for students to demonstrate all ACP skills and we feel building this into our assessment and curriculum is hugely important.
How do you build in ACP development and assessment within Art in your school?
