| Assessment Description | Quiz given to students in all sections of 140A(beginning painting). Example of question for 140 A: #2 Oil paints and acrylics: a) are made from pigments suspended in liquid vehicles; b) were invented at the same time historically; c) dry to hardness at equal rates. This question relates to MLO A: "effectively employ the basic materials, tools, skills, methods and processes of painting, and to apply perceptual and conceptual skills and methods fundamental to creating art" |

| Data Summary | Scores are high for all sections of Art 140A . 25 out of 54 total 140A students scored 12/12; 17 out of 54 scored 11/12; and 12 students out of 54 (fewer than 25%) scored 10/12 or below. There appears to be no pattern of wrong answers, which would indicate a poorly constructed question. There were no reported problems with the administering of the quiz with the exception of one section in which several students did not realize that there were more questions on the reverse side of the page! |
| Analysis Summary | Students have achieved outcome if they have answered 10/12. An overwhelming percentage of students achieved outcome. There appears to be no pattern of wrong answers, which would indicate a poorly constructed question |
| Next Steps Planned | A printed set of basic instructions to students that can be read out by the instructor prior to taking the quiz really needs to be created. These instructions should stipulate matters like “pencils only”, on what line of the scantron card does question#1 correspond to? (There were several mistakes made here). Is there a back page? A further source of confusion involved the variety of scantron cards themselves, (some were long format and others, short format‐‐in the future, only short format cards should be used). The number of questions on each 140A quiz seemed appropriate, but it could be reviewed for next semester. Another improvement concerns the timing of the administration of the exit survey quiz. In some cases, they were given at times when some sections of the classes were not full (due to out‐of‐class assignments). Above improvements to be applied academic year 2013-2014 |

| More Details | Exit survey results have been analyzed. Discussion on minor improvements in the exam itself as well as the logistics (timing, instructions, etc) will occur among painting faculty. |
