Thesis (Ed.M.)--Boston University 2" x 2" slides. In Audio-Visual Library. / The purpose of this study is to construct a test of design judgment for use both as an evaluative and guidance device in the art classes of Grades VIII and IX of the Framingham Public Schools. This is to be known as the Framingham Design Judgement Test. Its objectives are (1) to help the art teachers of Grades VIII and IX evaluate one phase of the local art program; (2) to help select those pupils who, having demonstrated ability and interest in art in the earlier grades, should be encouraged ,to continue the subject in Grade IX; and (3) to help determine which students, by virtue of special talent, should elect the Art Major course at the beginning of Grade X, and which ones should be advised to pursue their art interests in the General Art course.
