Abstract
This article is intended to analyze a questionnaire study using semantic differential technique conducted in order to consider methods of evaluation in art education. In the questionnaire we asked students and teachers about pictures drawn by children. We analyzed the results of the questionnaire by methods including factor analysis, regression analysis, and comparison of the profile of each picture. We also examined the differences among evaluation respondents (students and teachers). As a result, we found that students tend to do similar evaluations whatever their subjects were. However, there is a difference between the evaluations of students and those of teachers. In addition, students evaluated unusual pictures more highly than teachers did. We found that teachers tend to evaluate highly the pictures which were carefully drawn.
