Today lesson is about Aesthetics Assessment. It bringing education assessment methods into a evaluation which is Criterion referenced assessment, Norm- referenced and Ipsative assessment. First,  Criterion referenced assessment is a principle or standard by which something may be judged or decided,the assessment that examines whether or not one performed well or poorly on a given task. Second, Norm- referenced assessment is a assessment that compares one to his, her or its peer. Third, Ipsative assessment which ismm an ipsative assessment in an education/learning context compares a test-taker’s results against his or her previous results.Then, the next topic is "How to evaluate aesthetics ?". There is 4 way to evaluate.

2. Relativism. The doctrine that knowledge , truth , and morality exist is't in relation for culture , society , or historical context , and are not absolute.  

3. Aesthetics Relativism. The judgement of beauty is relative to individuals , culture , time periods and contexts. For example foot binding.
