Performance-Based Assessment
by Brandon Arias
1. Student Assessment
2. It is usually designed to approach students with both summative and formative feedback that would allow them to improve until they are ready to perform a task
3. Performance-Based Assessment
4. They aim to develop skills and abilities that are required to do a task in a real-world situation.
5. They evaluate how students use the language and their performance in real-world environments rather that testing language knowledge
6. Performance-Based Assesment with Technology
7. Technology may serve to help language learning because of the technological sources taking into account to analyze the needs that may face this process.
8. Tools and technologies for performance-based Assessment
9. Tex-Based CMC techbologies
10. These sited provide opportunities for performance-based develpment of productive skills
11. Audio and Video CMC
12. To provide practice in receptive skills (listening) in real activities
13. Virtual Environments
14. Virtual places that would allow students some sort of immersion in real-life tasks that imply language use.
15. Performance-Based Criteria
16. They provide a view of how rating scales to describe and judge what ss can do and to what point they deliever any task.
17. Testing Tools
18. Qualitative: to assessthe experience of the learners and their skills. Quantitative: to assess language progress of language outcomes
19. Language vs Performance
20. People who is infornt a class, must be aware on the purposes for learning. If accuracy is important, assessments should include specific criteria. However, If the main goal is just communication without taking care of the language, then assessing language may be optional.
21. They may limit some skills to be assessed. Technology have to help conventional learning to change the way of learning to a more creative and easy one.
