MISSION STATEMENT AND GOALS: Art Education Program

The mission of the Art Education Program is to provide exemplary teacher training, whether for majors or non-majors, in the process and meaning of the visual arts. We are pledged to excellence in the design and implementation of art specialist licensure (ages 3-21/grades PreK-12) and post-baccalaureate investigations, as well as in the instruction of service courses for early childhood certification. Furthermore, the Department is committed to serve these diverse preparation needs by providing specialized curricula that are responsive to particular audiences.

 

            To accomplish this commitment, the Art Education Program:

 

            1.) Provides instructional programs grounded in research, knowledge and

                  experience.

 

            2.) Enables our students to develop appropriate conditions for effective visual

                 arts learning in preprimary, primary, and secondary settings.

 

            3.) Aids students in understanding human diversity and exceptionality for use

                 in designing appropriate art learning experiences for atypical learners.

 

            4.) Offers excellent library facilities that include the Teacher Resource Center

                 at the Toledo Museum of Art,  where students have access to videos,

                 slides, art reproductions, teacher packets and books. The Toledo

                 Museum of Art also houses an outstanding art collection for student

                 research and exploration.

 

            5.) Provides challenging field experiences in area public schools and the Youth and

     Studio Programs at the Toledo Museum of Art in order to facilitate  quality student

                 learning .

 

            6.) Maintains a research lab for first-hand observation and demonstration that

                 includes working with pre-primary children in the Toledo Museum of Art Family

                 Center as well as an experimental disabilities program for the physically and mentally

                 challenged.

 

            7.) Offers high technology media explorations in instructional delivery

                 systems.

           

            8.) Conducts research and publication that validates theory and practices used

                  in various art settings including the Toledo Museum of Art. Grants are written to

                  fund these projects.

 

            9.) Provides community outreach opportunities for students, i.e., Art Docent Program in

                  area elementary schools and a post secondary option at Bowsher High school.

 

            10.) Demonstrates our dedication to educational excellence and our willingness

                 to respond to the needs and concerns of those in the educational

                 community by providing in service training, consultation, and

                 workshops.

 

            11.) Provides learning experiences for Praxis II -  Content Areas.

 

            12.) Provides various experiences in Pathwise Assessment according to state mandate.

 

 

In addition to the previously stated goals, the post-baccalaureate goals are to:

 

            1.) Provide professional renewal and refinement of content area expertise.

            

            2.) Offer individualized programs in art and art education which will

                 improve the student’s teaching and assist in entry into leadership

                 positions. The master’s degree program is offered at two levels: the

                 traditional strand for those who have licensure in art education, and the

                 alternative strand for those with a BFA in a content field who seek licensure.

 

 

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES:

 

 The Art Education program is designed to:

1.)  Provide students with the knowledge, understanding, and skills necessary to become teachers

       and artists. 

2.) Encourage  the development of  skills in a variety of media in  beginning and advanced

     courses, including ceramics, cyber arts, drawing, painting, and photography. 

3.) Provide methods and techniques for teaching art making, art history, art criticism, and

     aesthetics, working in art with special needs populations and in early childhood.

 

Because this program has various phases for students to successfully complete, Student Outcomes, which are directly related to the Educational Objectives (as indicated above) are listed in each phase of the program as presented below.

 

The art education program has had continuous assessment for many years; in fac, it has been a critical component of the program for at least 25 years.  The "assessment committee" of the art education program involves all of the full time and visiting faculty in art education including the chair of the department . All students are reviewed and their progress is monitored with particular emphasis upon the capstone experience that is the professional dossier of the students who are seeking licensure in the State of Ohio. Essentially the program has selective admission and students progress through the following steps:

 

 

 

STUDENT OUTCOMES: PHASE ONE:

* Admission as a pre- professional student in art education. Students follow the university core curriculum and art core curriculum courses in art, art history and art education.

 

 Students will be approved or denied admission after the completion of 48-60 hours. . Students who do not meet the criteria must transfer to another college. The criteria for admission is: successful completion of Praxis I examination, completed application / signed, “Character statement”, resume, evidence of working with students, a paper written for a content area course, and presentation of a portfolio of studio work (slides, digital photographs, or actual work).

 

 

TYPES OF ASSESSMENT: PHASE ONE:

A rubric is used to assess student completion of this phase of the program. The assessment rubric for this phase of the Art Education Program can be found in Appendix A.

 

ASSESSMENT LIAISONS: PHASE ONE:

This rubric is completed by the full-time and visiting Art Education faculty and the Chair of the Art Department.

 

TIMELINE FOR ASSESSMENT: PHASE ONE:

After the completion of 48-60 hours students must apply for admission to professional education in art education.

 

 

STUDENT OUTCOMES: PHASE TWO

Students will:

1.) Have adequate oral communication skills

2.) Have adequate motivation

3.) Have adequate interpersonal skills

4.) Overall promise as a teacher

 

The form used to assess these learning outcomes can be found in Appendix B.

 

TYPES OF ASSESSMENT: PHASE TWO

* Upon admission a student's progress is monitored by assessment of field experience placements and GPA. Students must maintain a minimum GPA  in order qualify for licensure. Students who do not graduate with a 2.7 and successful completion of the PRAXIS II examination may be granted exceptional graduation which means a degree without licensure. They may take the PRAXIS II examination as often as they need to.

 

* Field experience placements (prior to student teaching) are evaluated by using a department of art field experience form that addresses the following learning outcomes.

 

 

 

ASSESSMENT LIAISONS: PHASE TWO

This form is completed by licensed art educators in area public and private schools. These evaluations carefully monitor the students progress and are used as benchmarks as a student progresses to student teaching.

 

TIMELINE FOR ASSESSMENT: PHASE TWO:

This form of assessment takes place after a student is admitted to the program and prior to the student teach experience.

 

 

STUDENT OUTCOMES: PHASE THREE:

*During the final semester of the art education program, students are expected to do their student teaching, which involves six weeks in an elementary school and six weeks in a secondary school. During this experience, students are expected to fulfill the following learning outcomes:

TYPES OF ASSESSMENT AND TIMELINE: PHASE THREE

* During the student teaching experience student progress is monitored by observation of a university supervisor and cooperating teacher in by-weekly visits (or more if necessary) with the capstone assessment prior to a recommendation for licensure. Students are video taped twice during the student teaching experience:  Once on the elementary level and again during the secondary experience.

 

* Four times during student teaching each student teacher is evaluated using the University of Toledo Department of Art, Art Education, and Art History Student Teaching Assessment Form.

 

This instrument is aligned with the Pathwise and Praxis II domains currently in use in Ohio.

The assessment form used for the student teaching experience can be found in Appendix C.

 

ASSESSMENT LIAISONS: PHASE THREE

The assessment form is completed by both the cooperating art teacher in the public / private school and an art education faculty member from the university. All cooperating art teachers must have successfully completed Pathwise Training in order to have a student teacher under their supervision.

 

STUDENT OUTCOMES: PHASE FOUR

 

*. The learning outcomes for this phase of the program include the following:

 

The student will be able to:

 

1.) Write a quality resume

 

2.) Write a clear and concise philosophy of teaching statement

 

3.) Write a clear and concise autobiographical sketch.

 

4.) Write complete lesson plans.

 

5.) Provide quality photographs of their student teach experience.

 

6.) Provide quality supplementary materials that include handouts, visuals, etc.

 

7.) Document additional teaching experience.

 

8.) Write a clear and concise management technique statement

 

TYPES OF ASSESSMENT: PHASE FOUR:

A rating instrument unique to the dossier requirements. This instrument can be found in Appendix D.

 

TIMELINE OF ASSESSMENT: PHASE FOUR:

The capstone experience, the professional dossier, is submitted by the student near the completion of the student teaching experience during the senior year.

 

ASSESSMENT LIAISONS: PHASE FOUR

The professional dossier is rated by three art education faculty members with a rating instrument unique to the dossier requirements.  This process is intended to help students prepare for competitive interviews as well to modify and improve the art education curriculum.

 

The assessment program of the art education component is highly effective and is continuous.  Archives of videotapes of students teaching as well as assessment documents are in storage in the departmental office. Recently a preliminary NASAD accrediting consultant indicated that this assessment process was one of the strengths of the art program.

 

In addition, all courses are evaluated by students in accordance with College of Arts and Sciences policies. To a certain extent these evaluations are used to modify the curricula. They are used primarily for purposes of promotion, tenure, merit and professional assessment.

 

 

SPECIFIC PROGRAM /CURRICULAR CHANGES:

At the end of each academic year, area cooperating teachers review the evaluation instruments and make suggestions for modifications that reflect best practice. Thus assessment instruments  are under constant modification and will be in the future. If students are found to be consistently weak in a specific area, the curriculum is adjusted accordingly to better meet that need.

 

 

 

 

SPECIFIC CHANGES TO PLANNING AND REALLOCATION:

At this time, assessment data provides continuous feedback and directly affects the delivery of the curriculum and the improvement of the content of instruction.
