The purpose of Step 2 is to create a task,

simulation, or situation that will allow

learners to demonstrate the knowledge,

skills, and attitudes that they have acquired.Ideas for these tasks may come from

newspapers, popular books, or interviews

with professionals as reported in the media.

The tasks should center on issues,

concepts, or problems that are

important to your context area. In

problems that important peoplewho are working in the field faces

everyday.

their living working in those fields in the realworld?

What are the projects and tasks performed

by those professionals that can be adapted to

school instruction?What are the roles-or habits of mind- that

those professional acquire that learners can

re-create in the classroom.

While your tasks should be complex, the final

product should be clear. Learners should nothave to ask questions whether they are

finished, or if they have provided what you

want. They should, however, have to think

long and hard about how to complete thetasks.


12/16

The type of task you choose should be

complex enough and rich enough in detail to

allow you to draw conclusions about transfer

and generalizations to other tasks for an

entire course of study that assess the

essential performance outcomes you wish

your learners to achieve.

Performance test, however are designed to

allow learners to demonstrate learning

through a variety of modalities.this will be

more time consuming than a multiple-choice

test but will provide unique information

about you learners achievement untapped by

other assessment method.

It should involve more than simple tasks forwhich there is one solution.


15/16

cognitive strategies to arrive at a solution

rather than depend on coaching at variouspoints in the assessment process.
