dc.description.abstractThe study titled “A Study of Teachers’ Assessment of Children’s Creative Art Works in Some Primary Schools in Kaduna State” was designed to evaluate primary school teachers’ method of assessing children’s creative art works. A total of 262 teachers and 350 pupils were randomly selected from twenty (20) primary schools in both public and private primary schools within Kaduna Metropolis. The tools used in collecting the data were-questionnaire, interview and observational schedules, a practical test of drawing was also given to the pupils to test their creative abilities in art. The data collected was analysed using the following instruments: percentages, t-test statistics and Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. The descriptive survey method (Afolabi, 1993, Johnson, 1977) was used in collecting data for this study. Three research questions and three hypotheses were developed for this study. The findings which derived from the analysis of data provided some solution to the research questions and hypotheses thus: 1. A significant relationship was found among the various ratings/assessment of children’s art works by art teachers. 2. Male pupils performed significantly better than female pupils in creative arts, and 3. There is no significant difference between an evaluation of the performance of children in public schools and those in private schools. 4. Other factors affecting evaluation of children’s art works include: - Poor professional/academic qualification(s) of art teachers. - Lack of adequate knowledge of criteria to be used in evaluation and - Lack of art rooms/studios, materials etc. Some of the recommendations made include: (a) Kaduna State Government should employ better-qualified art teachers, who should be exposed to periodic in-service training on evaluation. (b) Periodic workshops should be held for both qualified and non-qualified teachers on methods of evaluating art process and products. (c) Children in public schools should be encouraged to take greater interest in art through provision of adequate art materials and more conducive environment.en_US
