Team Exhibiting

At the end of a unit of study (semester-, or year-long course), groups of four students will curate and design an exhibit that displays their collective works. Five works of art are to be selected in advance by each student. Students should select their best works from this class (or alternatively, artwork based on an agreed-upon theme).

Students will be working together to arrange an exhibit of their work and should have experience in arranging artwork on the basis of theme, color, size, and other elements and principles. Student labels will be created to accompany each work. Students will prepare a space to exhibit their artwork. Teachers may find this useful in planning end-of-year exhibits, since this assessment gives students ownership in the exhibit.

This item has not been field-tested by Michigan teachers.


This is an analytic rubric. The column on the left shows the dimension that is being measured in the student’s performance. The levels across the top row indicate the performance level in the dimensions. Occasionally all dimensions and performance levels are exemplified by multiple students in a single recording.
