information for School-based
Assessment in 2020
Units 3 and 4
School-assessed Task
The School-assessed Task (SAT) contributes 50 per cent to the study score and is commenced in
Unit 3 and completed in Unit 4.

Teachers will provide to the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA) a score
against each criterion that represents an assessment of the student’s level of performance for
Unit 3 Outcome 2 and Unit 4 Outcome 2. The recorded scores must be based on the teacher’s
assessment of the student’s performance according to the criteria on pages 7–16. This assessment
is subject to the VCAA’s statistical moderation process.

The 2020 VCE Art assessment sheet on page 26 is to be used by teachers to record scores. The
completed assessment sheet must be made available on request by the VCAA. The performance
descriptors for the assessment criteria are published annually on the Art study page of the VCAA
website and notification of their publication is given in the February VCAA Bulletin. Details of
authentication requirements and administrative arrangements for SATs will be updated annually
and published in the VCE and VCAL Administrative Handbook 2020.

The Authentication record form on pages 19–24 is to be used to record information for each
student and must be made available on request by the VCAA.
The SAT has two components.

     Unit 3 Outcome 2
     Unit 4 Outcome 2.
Finished artwork/s submitted at the completion of Unit 3 must have secure storage at school until
such time as they are released to be assessed collectively with finished artworks completed in
Unit 4. Dates for release to students are published in the VCAA’s Important Administrative Dates.
Students must acknowledge and employ appropriate health and safety practices relevant to their
practical work with respect to themselves and the environment.
Teachers should be aware of the dates of submission of scores into VASS in June and November.
These dates are published in the VCAA’s Important Administrative Dates, published annually on
the VCAA website: www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/pages/schooladmin/admindates/index.aspx
The score for Unit 3 must be submitted by 12 June. The score for Unit 4 must be submitted by
4 November.

Unit 3
Investigation and interpretation through art making

Outcome 2
On completion of this unit the student should be able to use the art process to produce at least one
artwork and use the Analytical Frameworks to document and evaluate the progressive
development and refinement of their artistic practice.

Nature of task
A body of work that presents explorations within selected art forms and that clearly demonstrates
the development of the student’s thinking and working practices. The progressive realisation and
resolution of the body of work reflects personal concepts, ideas, directions, explorations, aesthetic
qualities and technical skills, and includes at least two finished artworks that resolve the student’s
intentions.

Scope of task
A range of visual responses should be developed in a visual diary to demonstrate the student’s
ideas, concepts and observations. Written and visual responses should demonstrate the student’s
development of thinking and working with personal ideas and concepts, and employ the analytical
frameworks to reflect upon and develop further works. The written and visual documentation should
demonstrate how the student applies materials and techniques to develop and refine an effective
visual language. The student’s use of visual language should demonstrate an aesthetic
understanding at each stage of the art making process, the application of the art elements and the
principles and skills in art making. Sound and video recording of performance art or site-specific
artwork may be required, depending on the medium selected by the student.

At least one finished artwork must be produced in addition to the developmental work. A finished
artwork is one that is judged by the student to best demonstrate their acquisition of the key
knowledge and key skills for the outcome. The students’ knowledge of the visual language that
reflects their artistic practice and demonstrates the communication of their ideas, concepts and skill
in their application of techniques and materials is included in a visual diary. Evidence of initial
ideas, exploration, investigation and experimentation of materials and techniques in the body of
work accompanied by reflective annotations should be linked to the finished artwork. The finished
artwork should be completed within the specified timeframe and clearly labelled ‘Finished artwork
Unit 3’.

Students should clearly identify the Analytical Frameworks when reflecting on, evaluating and
annotating their art making. They should label and use appropriate aspects and language of the
Analytical Frameworks. Use of the Analytical Frameworks should be identified and applied from the
initial exploration of personal art responses, ideas, concepts and observations through to the
development, refinement and resolution of finished artworks.

VCE Art: Administrative information for School-based Assessment in 2020

Students should:

    develop their own art responses that are inspired by personal ideas, concepts and
     observations
    develop a visual language that reflects imagination and demonstrates the development of
     personal ideas, concepts and the approaches to the investigation of materials, techniques,
     processes and artform/s
    engage in personal exploration, reflection, analysis and evaluation as they progressively
     develop and refine their ideas
    document any processes from initial investigation and experimentation of materials and
     techniques in art form/s through to the resolution and refinement of art works
    document, analyse and reflect on thinking and working practices using the language and
     context of relevant Analytical Frameworks, as appropriate, to support their reflection on the
     structural, personal, cultural and contemporary aspects of their artworks. Selected Analytical
     Frameworks must be clearly identified and labelled within the content of the annotation.
The body of work may have a number of starting points and multiple directions. Starting points in
the art process might involve:
    experimental exploration of media and materials
    investigation into the qualities of art form/s
    exploration of themes or concepts and aesthetic considerations used by artists through a
     variety of approaches.

In addition to the finished artwork/s, the exploration and experimentation is part of the student’s
body of work.

The refinement of ideas leading to at least one finished artwork might occur through:

    trialling and refining techniques and processes
    progressive resolution of ideas and skills
    progressive annotation and evaluation of explorations and investigations
    realisation of defined objectives, experiments, explorations and concepts
    appropriate technical skill to complete at least one finished artwork by the end of Unit 3.

The effective communication of the students’ artistic practice, as outlined in the Cross-study
specifications on page 10 of the VCE Art Study Design, in the refinement of ideas and concepts
must be documented with visual and written material. This may include:

    grouping, numbering, dating and/or commenting on specific aspects or sections of work from
     initial concept to the resolution of ideas
    related photographs, models and/or experimental proofs explaining the sequential
     development of work/s in progress
    progressive annotation, explanation and evaluation of ideas, concepts and visual directions
    work organised chronologically, thematically and/or stylistically to logically reflect the students’
     conceptual approach to their practical work.
Students should support the development and refinement of their artwork/s using appropriate
written and visual material throughout Units 3 and 4.

Scoring of criteria for the School-assessed Task
If a student does not submit any of the SAT, a score of N/A should be entered for the relevant
criterion. A score of ‘zero’ is deemed a score for the criterion. A student can score for all criteria in
Unit 3 and receive N/A for criteria in Unit 4 if the task is not submitted for Unit 4.

Unit 4
Realisation and resolution

Outcome 2
On completion of this unit the student should be able to apply the art process to progressively
communicate ideas, directions and personal concepts in a body of work that includes at least one
finished artwork and use selected aspects of the Analytical Frameworks to underpin reflections on
their art making.

Nature of task
A body of work that presents explorations within selected art forms and that clearly demonstrates
the development of the student’s thinking and working practices. The progressive realisation and
resolution of the body of work reflects personal concepts, ideas, directions, explorations, aesthetic
qualities and technical skills, and includes at least two finished artworks that resolve the student’s
intentions.

Scope of task
A range of visual responses are developed into a body of work that demonstrates the student’s
ideas, concepts and observations using a range of materials and techniques.
In Unit 4 students continue to explore and experiment with ideas, concepts, materials
and techniques to develop, refine and resolve them into finished artwork/s.

The use of visual language should demonstrate the ability to manipulate art elements and
principles, and demonstrate the further exploration and experimentation, development and
refinement of ideas, concepts, use of materials and technical skill. The refinement of a visual
language includes the reflection of imagination used in conjunction with skills and techniques to
communicate and demonstrate progressive development of ideas and personal concepts.

All the student’s investigation, experimentation, exploration, development, refinement and
resolution contribute to and constitute their body of work. One finished artwork/s must be produced
in Unit 4. A finished artwork is one that is judged by the student to best demonstrate their
acquisition of the key knowledge and key skills for the outcome. The finished artwork/s must
demonstrate the use of visual language that reflects imagination and the communication of the
student’s ideas, concepts and skill in their application of techniques and materials.

It should be evident that the finished artwork/s in this unit is a progression from the ideas,
exploration and artwork/s presented at the completion of Unit 3. The progression should be
evidenced in the ideas and concepts and the use of techniques, materials and processes in the
body of work. Written responses in Unit 4 should demonstrate further exploration, experimentation,
progression and refinement on the work produced in Unit 3. The documentation should
demonstrate how the student applies materials and techniques to achieve an effective visual
language and indicate a progressive development of concepts and ideas.

VCE Art: Administrative information for School-based Assessment in 2020

The manipulation of art elements and principles and technical qualities should be supported by the
application of materials and techniques. Evidence of initial ideas and exploration, investigation,
experimentation, development and refinement of materials and techniques in the body of work and
in accompanying annotations should be linked to the finished artwork.

The investigations and personal explorations of Unit 3 may be continued in Unit 4 and must evolve
from the previous investigations in Unit 3. However, there must be evidence of further progression
of these investigations, exploration, development, refinement and resolution in the body of work.

Students continue to select the appropriate aspects and language of the Analytical Frameworks to
reflect on and annotate their work in an informed manner. Students must select the specific
language and appropriate concepts of the Analytical Frameworks to support their reflective
annotation when discussing aspects of their art-making. Students continue to select the appropriate
aspects and language of selected Analytical Frameworks to support their developed and reflective
annotation on the structural, personal, cultural and contemporary aspects of their art making. The
Analytical Frameworks selected by the student must be identified throughout their annotations.
Students clearly indicate the explorations and experimentation or the continued development,
progression and refinement of their ideas, directions, skills and application of materials and
techniques and how these constitute a body of work.

Students should:

   continue to develop the body of work begun in Unit 3 and complete at least one finished
    artwork/s for Unit 4
   continue to reflect on personal concepts as they further explore and experiment and
    progressively develop, refine and resolve their artworks
   investigate, explore, experiment, refine and show their developed knowledge of materials,
    processes and art forms
   continue to analyse and reflect on thinking and working practices in an informed way, using
    the language and context of the Analytical Frameworks as appropriate to support their
    reflection on the structural, personal, cultural and/or contemporary aspects of their artworks
   apply and clearly identify selected Analytical Framework/s when annotating their work to
    demonstrate reflection on the context and influences on their work and on-going inquiry and
    refinement of a visual language
   continue to document their thinking and working practices to reflect exploration,
    experimentation, development, refinement, resolution and developed skill
   provide documentation that indicates the initial idea/s or concepts, the refinement of these
    directions and the resolution of all finished artwork/s.

The realisation and resolution of students’ thinking and working practices, the further exploration
and experimentation, and the refinement of ideas and concepts must be effectively communicated
and documented with visual and written material. This may include:

   grouping, numbering, dating and/or commenting on specific aspects or sections of work from
    initial concept to the resolution of ideas
   related photographs, models and/or experimental proofs explaining the sequential
    development of work/s in progress through to refinement of finished artwork/s
   progressive annotation, explanation and evaluation of ideas, concepts and visual directions
   work organised chronologically, thematically and/or stylistically to logically reflect the students’
    conceptual approach to their practical work.

Scoring of criteria for the School-assessed Task
If a student does not submit any of the SAT, a score of N/A should be entered for the relevant
criterion. A score of ‘zero’ is deemed a score for the criterion. A student can score for all criterion in
Unit 3 and receive N/A for criterion in Unit 4 in the task is not submitted for Unit 4.

Framing of finished work
Students should consider carefully the presentation of their finished artworks. Presentation should
be carefully considered to ensure that the surface qualities of the work are not obscured, and the
close examination of the use of materials and techniques is not obstructed. Framing of artworks is
not required; however, if it is considered as part of the presentation of the finished artworks then
the student should ensure that this is part of the process of refinement of the finished works. It
should be remembered that the use of glass, perspex, plastic or other such materials may obscure
the surface and obstruct the close examination of the techniques and texture of the medium/media
used in the work presented for assessment. If these materials are used, they are considered to be
part of the finished artwork. Any framing, mounting or use of these materials should be undertaken
by the student. Any framing considerations should be included in the Authentication record form.
Presenting a series of images in a concertina book would be considered one artwork. Mounting
more than one piece of work in a multi-cut mount may be considered one final artwork as such and
does not present a range of finished artworks. An installation work, documented in the final
evaluation document, may consist of many individual works but should be considered in refinement
as one work.

Authentication of VCE Art School-assessed Task (SAT)
Teachers are reminded of the need to comply with the authentication requirements specified in the
Assessment: School-based Assessment section of the VCE and VCAL Administrative Handbook
2020. This is important to ensure that ‘undue assistance [is] not … provided to students while
undertaking assessment tasks’.

Teachers must be aware of the following requirements for the authentication of VCE Art SATs:

1.    The body of work created for the SAT is based on work developed and completed in Unit 3
      Outcome 2 and Unit 4 Outcome 2.

2.    Teachers are required to fill out the Authentication record form to provide the student with
      feedback on their progress for each criterion at each observation.

3.    The study design requires students to document how any assistance will be sought and/or
      use of appropriated images or other material will be acknowledged or copyright observed.
      Students should refer to the VCAA Copyright guidelines of the VCAA Season of Excellence
      webpage for information regarding copyright and third-party material. It should be noted that
      all applications to Top Arts must have written copyright clearance for the use of third party
      material:
      www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/excellenceawards/seasonofexcellence/generalinfo/copyright.as
      px

4.    The VCE Art Study Design notes that ‘work related to the outcomes of each unit will be
      accepted only if the teacher can attest that, to the best of their knowledge, all
      unacknowledged work is the student’s own’.

5.    Undue assistance should not occur at any time during the development of the body of work
      and teachers need to be vigilant. Students are required to demonstrate development of their
      artistic practices. The progressive realisation of the body of work should reflect personal
      concepts, ideas, directions, explorations, aesthetic qualities and technical skills. Teachers
      are reminded that it is not appropriate to provide ‘detailed advice on, corrections to, or actual
      reworking of students’ drafts or productions or folios.

6.    Teachers must sight and monitor the development and documentation of the student’s art
      process throughout the unit to authenticate the work as the student’s own. Students must
      acknowledge the source of materials and information used to support the development of
      ideas, including materials identified for inspiration and further development. This includes
      documentation of any appropriated imagery, with information detailing how the work has
      evolved from the source imagery.

7.    Students should be encouraged to complete their artwork at school. Where they use external
      service providers, their documentation should demonstrate that they have researched and
      identified the appropriate and correct technical methods required and also created their own
      specifications for the service provider. This includes visual documentation. Receipts are not
      acceptable as documentation. The student’s documentation will show their complete creative
      control over the making of their artwork. Without this evidence the teacher may not be able
      to authenticate the student’s artwork or apply the SAT assessment criteria fairly.

8.    During development of the body of work, teachers must plan and use observations of
      student work in order to monitor and record each student’s progress as part of the
      authentication process. The further exploration, experimentation, development, refinement
      and resolution of student work should be clearly documented for Authentication purposes.
      Teachers cannot assess any work produced in Unit 3 in Unit 4.

9.    Teachers must ensure that all source and reference material, all appropriate imagery used in
      the final artwork, all use of non-school (home, outsourced) resources and any external
      assistance (for example, tutors) are acknowledged on the Authentication record form. If a
      student acknowledges using appropriated imagery, outsourcing production and/or receiving
      external assistance the teacher should record complete details as an attachment to the
      Authentication record form.

10.   The use of external support and/or equipment must be planned and documented with
      appropriate detail to demonstrate that the student has retained complete creative control;
      teachers must certify that such support does not constitute undue assistance. This ensures
      the body of work can be authenticated and that the student is not receiving undue assistance
      and in turn ensures that all students are assessed equitably. Framing of finished artworks or
      any aspect of the body of work is not required. However, students should use appropriate
      labelling to clearly identify their finished artwork and label as ‘Finished artwork Unit 3’ and
      ‘Finished artwork Unit 4’. If the artwork has the framing as part of the artwork then the
      student should clearly document the use of framing and how this contributes to the
      refinement of ideas, aesthetics, techniques and processes. Identification of the refinement is
      also required in their documentation and evaluation.

11.   If a student is not meeting the expectations of the study or is at risk of not completing the art
      process, teachers must indicate this on the Authentication record form and advise the
      student of this situation. Clear evidence about what the student needs to do to complete the
      art process in order to receive a satisfactory assessment must be recorded on the
      Authentication record form and must be discussed directly with the student.

12.   Teachers are reminded that the authentication procedures are required to be followed for all
      student work in relation to this SAT. The School-based Assessment Audit includes the
      inspection of Authentication record forms. Authentication record forms will also be required
      to be forwarded for all works nominated for the Season of Excellence awards in 2020.
      Incomplete Authentication record forms will result in an automatic disqualification of the
      student work from the nomination process.
