Mid-Term - Personal Art Assessment

Please take a few minutes and consider your personal art practice:

  • Did I work as hard as I could have? Yes? No? Why?
  • Did I set and maintain high standards for myself? Yes?  No? Why?
  • Did I spend enough time to do quality work? Yes? No? Why?
  • Did I regulate my procrastination, distractions, and temptations in order to complete my work? Yes? No? Why?
  • Did I make good use of available resources? Yes? No? Why?
  • Did I ask questions if I needed help? Yes? No? Why?
  • Did I review and re-review my work for possible errors? Yes? No? Why?
  • Did I examine best practices for similar work? Yes? No? Why?
  • Is my work something for which I am proud—that I would proudly show to a large, global audience? Yes? No? Why?
