II. Lesson Plans and Activities ArtLink Cultural Norms and Values Assessment A rubric is a scoring guide which can be used to measure student performance based on a set of criteria. Rubrics are a tool that can be used by students to self-assess, give peer feedback, and/or be used by the teacher to assess finished projects. Used as pre- and post-evaluation criteria, this rubric can identify individual student growth from the beginning to the completion of the ArtLink program. While this rubric can be used for multiple age/grade/ability levels, the performance level of students being introduced to the study of cultural norms and values is likely to be at a lower level than that of students who have more experience with this subject. Also, it would be expected that the quality of work necessary to achieve each level would be academically and developmentally appropriate to the students’ age/grade/ability level. The criteria are: Beginning, Developing, Proficient, Mastery, and Advanced. However, you may substitute your school’s ranking criteria in place of these degrees of quality. Use of this rubric can provide valuable information for teachers and administrators regarding student achievement and the efficacy of the ArtLink program.
