Performance Tasks
Complex challenges that mirror the issues & problems faced by adults.
Range in length from short-term tasks to long-term, multi-staged projects
Yield one or more tangible products and performances.
Differ from academic prompts in the following ways:
o The setting is real or simulated and involves the kind of constraints, background
noise, incentives, and opportunities an adult would find in a similar situation
o Typically require the student to address an identified audience (real or simulated)
o Are based on a specific purpose that relates to the audience
o Allow students greater opportunity to personalize the task
o Are not secure: the task, evaluative criteria, & performance standards are known in
advance & guide student work.
Academic Prompts
Open-ended questions or problems that require the student to think critically; not just recall
knowledge, & to prepare a specific academic response, product or performance
Such questions or problems:
o Require constructed responses to specific prompts under school & exam conditions
o Are open with no single bets answer or strategy expected for solving them
o Are often ill structured, requiring the development of a strategy
o Involve analysis, synthesis, and evaluation
o Typically require an explanation or defense of the answer given & methods used.
o Require judgment-based scoring based on criteria & performance standards
o May or may not be secure
o Involve questions typically only asked of students in school
