Qualitative Assessment of Arts Education
Stake, Robert; Munson, April
Arts Education Policy Review, v109 n6 p13-22 Jul-Aug 2008
Exploring the complicated issues of assessment in the arts, the authors discuss assessment of arts education and arts programs from a qualitative perspective: experiential, naturalistic, and ethnographic interpretation. With special attention to the practices of teaching, learning, and administration of education in the arts, quality is sought with emphasis on observations and judgment rather than instruments and measurement. (Contains 3 notes.)
