Abstract
The current research aim at analyzing the teaching performance indicators in Art Education through developing assessment/evaluation tools of student/teacher’s teaching performance as visual forms in relation to graphs . It also aims at identify the contribution of these evaluation tools in following-up the level of growth indicators of student/teachers’ teaching performance and in monitoring their attitudes towards the use of graphs as indicators for assessing /evaluating teaching skills of Art Education in the preservice teaching practice course (Practicum). The implementation of the current study was conducted on a sample of 25†male and female students in their fourth-year of study at Art Education Department, Sultan Qaboos University. In this study the researchers used the descriptive and the experimental research methods. The results show the possibility of using of graphs as forms of visual significance which may be utilized as tools for assessing student performance in the art education teaching practice course. The results also showed positive attitudes towards the use of graphic drawings in the process of evaluating student/ teacher performance. The research concluded with some recommendations such as: developing the assessment and evaluation processes by using tools based on visual forms associated with the nature of art specialization; conducting further similar research in using graphs drawings in the process of assessment/ evaluation in other disciplines; examining its benefits in developing student/teacher performance in the educational process.
