7 steps for creating performance assessments...
1. Identify the content knowledge and skills2. Identify the thinking skills3. Draft a task to match the learning outcomes4. Check you draft to verify that it matches the learning outcomes5. Verify the performance task does not include additional, irrelevant skills6. Revise the task and create rubrics that include criteria of performance levels7. Pilot the tasks/rubrics. Revise as necessary.

Your task: Work with no more than 2 other people to create a nonlinguistic representation (NR) that could be used to help other teachers understand what performance assessments are. Your NR must fill the chart paper. Be sure to use pictures and words, and to include information about the major components/characteristics of performance assessments.
Share a picture of your NR at http://padlet.com/curtisc/PA
