Performance Assessment for Students

Performance tests are used to determine how an individual performs a specific task and are also known as alternative or authentic assessment. They require students to complete a task rather than select from multiple choice answers. Checklists are frequently used to measure performance tests by listing behaviors involved in a task, such as the steps to solve a mathematics problem including identifying information, unknowns, forming equations, performing operations, and checking answers.
