Beth Dichter's insight:
One key part of the Common Core is performance assessments. One question many may have is just what is performance assessment. This post provides a number of descriptions of performance assessments including ones from ETS, five criteria from Wiggins and McTighe based on Understanding by Design and ASCD.
Performance tasks may include project-based learning, drawings, videos, and more.
There is also a discussion on four reasons to use performance assessment. They are:
* Personalized Learing
* Formative Assessment
* Competency Education
* Standards-based Education
