CHALLENGE
Visit and read the article in this blog post: https:/blog.performancetask.com/why-
should-we-use-performance-tasks-part-2-76431024e160. After reading, create an
argumentative essay explaining the significant points whether or not you should
implement performance-based assessment inside the classroom.
Answer:
The key feature of performance-based assessments is that they accurately measure
one or more specific course standards. They are also complex, genuine, process/product
focused, open-ended, and time-bound. Performance-based assessments have recently
resurfaced in educational literature and curricula. Performance-based assessments became
a viable alternative to traditional multiple-choice tests in the 1990s. Legislative
requirements shifted the emphasis to standardized testing in the years that followed,
resulting in a decline in nontraditional testing methods. Performance evaluation is a broad
term that encompasses products and procedures such as portfolios, projects, and
experiments. Performance assessment determines students' skills through authentic tasks
that require students to demonstrate their ability to perform. This is a method of teaching
and learning that emphasizes application over rote memorization. Furthermore, when
students understand what they are learning, they are more likely to succeed with
performance assessments. Performance evaluation requires students to do something,
which increases their likelihood of remembering the information they use. Indeed,
performance evaluation encourages students to work outside of the classroom for
additional learning, which may include writing or the use of psychomotor skills. As a result,
this boost of active learning on students, which is important for adult success, must be
nurtured and developed throughout a student's school career. Performance evaluation
encourages students to use higher-order thinking skills like analysis, synthesis, and
evaluation. The more opportunities students commit to practicing these skills, the better
they will become at using them.
HARNESS
List down five performances and identify their procedures.
Answer:
1. Presentation
A presentation or report of some kind is an easy way to have students
complete a performance-based activity. This activity could be completed by
students individually (which takes time) or in collaborative groups.

The presentation could be based on one of the following:


Giving information
Tutoring a skill
Progress Reporting
Influencing others
Students may include visual aids, a PowerPoint presentation, or Google Slides
to help illustrate elements of their speech. Presentations work well across the
curriculum as long as students are given a clear set of expectations from the start.
2. Portfolios
Items created and collected by students over time can be included in student
portfolios. Art portfolios are used by students who want to apply to college art
programs.
Another example is when students create a portfolio of their written work
that shows how they have progressed from the start of class to the end. A portfolio
can include writing from any discipline or a combination of disciplines. Reflections
can be included in student portfolios so that students can track their progress based
on the materials in the portfolio.
3. Drama Presentation
One type of collaborative activity that can be used as a performance-based
assessment is dramatic presentation. Students can create, perform, and/or respond
critically. Dance, recital, and dramatic enactment are some examples. There could be
interpretations of prose or poetry. Students must be given adequate time to address
the activity's demands; resources must be readily available and meet all safety
standards. Students should be able to draft stage work and practice. Before
evaluating a dramatic performance, it is critical to develop criteria and a rubric and
share them with students.
4. Debate
A classroom debate is one type of performance-based learning that teaches
students about different points of view and opinions. Research, media and argument
literacy, reading comprehension, evidence evaluation, public speaking, and civic
skills are all associated with debate. There are numerous formats for debate. The
fishbowl debate, in which a small group of students form a half circle facing the
other students and debate a topic, is one example. The remaining classmates may
ask the panel questions.
5. Reports
Teachers frequently use projects as performance-based activities. They can
range from research papers to artistic representations of learned information.
Students may be required to apply their knowledge and skills while working on
projects. They have the potential to be aligned with higher levels of creativity,
analysis, and synthesis. Reports, diagrams, and maps may be assigned to students.
Teachers can also assign students to work individually or in groups.
