In general terms, the dissertation Evaluation Model in Visual Arts/Drawing A. under
discussion - What Teachers and Students Think, addresses the opinion of teachers and
students about the evaluation process used at school in Visual Arts/Drawing A and tries to collect
opinions of teachers and students to improve the proposal.
Since teaching is more focused on the students and on the development of their skills,
satisfaction at school is associated with the assessment made by the students themselves about
how they feel about that environment, considering the importance of the school, the school
community and the relationships experienced in this context, forcing teachers to adapt teaching
and assessment strategies. It is also clear that students assessment is one of the leading
indicators of school quality and of the entire education system. Therefore, it is important to
understand how the assessment of arts occurs and to analyze how assessment practices are
integrated into the teaching and learning process, in order to understand whether they meet the
objectives and needs of the students.
This dissertation has two parts: The first part addresses the school as a learning
organization and shows the importance of curricular articulation in the improvement of learning
and particularly on issues, on the assessment of students. This is one of the preponderant
indicators of school quality and of the entire education system. Therefore, it is important to
understand several issues: the evaluation model for the teaching of Visual Arts, how the
assessment in Visual Arts occurs, Visual Arts/Drawing A as a subject and its limitations, the
criteria, the evaluation instruments and what to evaluate in Drawing A. These are some of the
aspects that are deepened in this dissertation, aiming at a theoretical support that allows the
implementation and conduction of the second part of this study, the empirical part.
Given the nature of the problem, we privileged a qualitative methodology, which provided
an exploratory and interpretive approach based on semi-structured interviews addressed to 8
teachers and questionnaires addressed to 8 Visual Arts students.
The results obtained after this research have an effective meaning for the improvement
of the teaching practice, namely the assessment responsibilities of Drawing A teachers. A
reformulation of the methods based on a critical and reflective analysis of the perceptions of
teachers and students is suggested. This points to the need to value student progress over time
rather than overvaluing summative assessment. It is also advocated the application of this method
in a more flexible way in view of its sensitivity to the reality of each teaching-learning process.
