Performance Assessment...

• focusses on the completion/performance of an authentic task• has clearly established parameters/defined conditions• is often open-ended and requires extended response• can take the form of a portfolio• is evaluated based on an agreed-upon set of criteria

To what extent does student teaching

display these characteristics?• focusses on the completion/performance of an authentic task• has clearly established parameters/defined conditions• is often open-ended and requires extended response• can take the form of a portfolio• is evaluated based on an agreed-upon set of criteria

What could this look like in your content area?

What could this look like in your content area?

As discussed earlier this month, Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 can be described as a work of projective investigation. Your task is to select specific events, ideas, or trends in modern society and show how accurately Bradbury projected them into the future. You should select a field of study of interest such as fashion, technology, health, sports, the economy, the arts, politics, etc. and analyze how current events, trends, and ideas compare with what was predicted in Fahrenheit 451. You should use (1) quotes and/or passages from F451 as well as information from modern books, magazines, articles, etc. as resources. events. You will be assessed on your ability to identify and understand basic beliefs in a text, your ability to identify and extend predictions, and your ability to communicate effectively in a variety of ways.

How well did Ray Bradbury predict what ________ would look like in our day?

7th grade

MS-ESS2-2. Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth’s surface at varying time and spatial scales. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on how processes change Earth’s surface at time and spatial scales that can be

large (such as slow plate motions or the uplift of large mountain ranges) or small (such as rapid landslides or microscopic geochemical reactions), and how many geoscience processes (such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and meteor impacts) usually behave gradually but are punctuated by catastrophic events. Examples of geoscience processes include surface weathering and deposition by the movements of water, ice, and wind. Emphasis is on geoscience processes that shape local geographic features, where appropriate.]

How might this performance assessment be adjusted to afford students more control ?

Rubrics

Standards driven and designed

Rubrics

“Like essays, performance tasks are ideally suited to

scoring via rubrics.”Marzano, 2000

Rubrics...need to be teacher and student friendly

Rubrics...need to be teacher and student friendly

Does this rubric tell me (the teacher)

what I want to know?

Does this rubric tell them (the

students) what they want to know?

Brookhart’s (2014) Guidelines for Creating Performance

Assessments

1. Identifying the content knowledge and skills to be assessed.2. Identify the thinking skills to be assessed.3. Draft a task and criteria to match these intended learning outcomes.

4. Does our draft match our intended content/thinking skills?5. Did we accidentally add additional/irrelevant skills6. Revise the task/develop criteria into rubrics that include descriptions of performance levels.

7. Try out the task and rubrics. Revise as necessary.

Time-Savers

1. Use high-stakes assessments/questions as a guide2. Adapt existing stuff (i.e...tasks that your team plans to continue with next year)3. Using existing texts/materials if you can avoid completely making stuff up4. The more work you do on the front end the less you have to do on the back end5. Use technology to aggregate/grade student answers.

1. Pattern it after state assessments.2. Tweak something you are doing.
