Understanding Performance Tasks in ELA and Mathematics Assessments, Lecture notes of Mathematics

An overview of performance tasks in ELA and Mathematics assessments. Performance tasks are a portion of the test that requires students to answer complex questions centered on a common topic or problem, often administered online. They help ensure test items are more accessible and allow students to respond in ways that are different from paper-and-pencil tests. how performance tasks measure a student's ability to integrate knowledge and skills across multiple domains and provides examples of ELA and Mathematics performance tasks.
