They succeeded in discerning art historical contexts and the impact of these contexts on the making of art objects. They displayed these skills both in exam multiple-choice questions and on exam essay questions. However, students had more trouble with factual art historical knowledge in the form of slide ID questions. More had trouble memorizing names and dates. Action Plan: Student performance on the most important skills met or exceeded expectations. The only area of disappointment was in rote memorization of facts. That said, this is a less important area than a student’s ability to utilize nomenclature and critical concepts in the interpretation of artworks and in the recognition of art historical contexts. In terms of improving rote memorization, perhaps students may be advised as to the use of flash cards; although this is something a number of them are already incorporating into their study techniques.

They were able to remember, understand and analyze lectures on technical information and design strategies. Based on observation, the revision of their designs from sketch to digital rough draft to critiqued draft through final file helped them to improve achievement in Learning Outcome #1. Without such revision, assessment would be much lower in this area. Students who did not achieve as highly in factual and procedural knowledge often did not read the assignment carefully or rushed to complete the assignment. On the lowest end, students who did not revise, or did not follow directions and/or did not have the factual/procedural knowledge from previous classes did not achieve satisfactory results. Action Plan: The most difficult aspect of the assignment for students is creating a dynamic relationship between text and image. I already show many examples of good layout design, and ask students to bring in examples as well. Often, the students who bring in samples spend time outside of class looking and researching design – and they score higher in general. Those who do not actively “look” score lower overall. Perhaps, adding a weekly assignment to bring in an interesting design (which the class can discuss) to create a design bulletin board would help all of the students.
