Current changes in the structure of British Art Education provide new opportunities for Information Technology to support the difficult task of teaching and evaluating. In the light of the 1988 Education Reform Act, this paper considers the use of microcomputers to develop visual sensitivity and skills. A test model is discussed which examines an experiential approach towards the teaching, evaluation and interpretation of colour theory. This is an interim report, the work is ongoing and no overriding conclusions have yet been made.
