Learning Performance Rubrics

Assessing and Evaluating Students There are three factors that influence how teachers think about assessments:1. Personal Experiences2. Standardized Testing3. Teacher Tests

Test Assessments Norm-referenced tests: compare a student's performance to other students of the same grade or age.Criterion-referenced tests: compare a student's performance to specific objectives or standards,not to other students.

Standards Based Assessments starts with national, state, or district curriculum frameworks that specify what students are expected to know and be able to do at each grade level.

Teachers now use electronic grading software as a virtual record-keeping system.

Performance Assessments

Performance assessments:also known as Performance Evaluations.This measures what someone actually does in a certain activity, assessing that performance is that particular activity.Teachers now use technology for Performance assessments and use them to evaluate students as well as themselves.
