**Bea Blanca D. Alumpe** **BEED 3A** **EDCK 3** **What is Performance Assessment?** Performance assessment is an assessment activity or set of activities that require students to generate ***products*** or ***performances*** that provide direct or indirect evidence of their knowledge, skills, and abilities in an academic content domain. It provides teachers with information about how well a student understands and applies knowledge and goes beyond the ability to recall information. It is used for assessing learning outcomes that involve designing or creating projects or products such as research papers, art exhibits, reflective essays, and portfolios. On the other hand, performance-based tasks include actual performances of making those products, such as carrying out laboratory experiments, exhibiting creative and artistic talents such as dancing, painting, and playing a musical instrument, and demonstrating writing skills through extemporaneous essay writing, article review, and reflective papers. Both product-based and performance-based assessments provide information about how a student understands and applies knowledge and involve hands-on tasks or activities that students must complete individually or in small groups. Below are examples of product-based and performance-based assessments: +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | **Types** | **Examples** | +===================================+===================================+ | A. **Product-Based Assessment** | | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Visual Products | charts, illustrations, graphs, | | | collages, murals, maps, timeline | | | flows, diagrams, posters, | | | advertisements, video | | | presentations, art exhibits | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Kinesthetic Products | diorama, puzzles, games, | | | sculpture, exhibits, dance | | | recital | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Written Products | journals, diaries, logs, reports, | | | abstracts, letters, thought or | | | position papers, poems, story, | | | movie/TV scripts, portfolio, | | | essay, article report, research | | | paper, thesis | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Verbal Products | audiotapes, debates, lectures, | | | voice recording, scripts | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | B. **Performance-Based | | | Assessment** | | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Oral Presentations/ | paper presentation, poster | | Demonstrations | presentation, individual or group | | | report on assigned topic, skills | | | demonstration such as baking, | | | teaching, problem solving | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Dramatic/Creative Performances | dance, recital, dramatic | | | enactment, prose or poetry | | | interpretation, role playing, | | | playing musical instruments | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Public Speaking | debates, mock trial, simulations, | | | interviews, panel discussion, | | | storytelling, poem reading | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ | Athletic Skills | playing basketball, baseball. | | Demonstration/Competition | Soccer, volleyball, and other | | | sports | +-----------------------------------+-----------------------------------+ Similar to performance assessment is the concept of authentic assessment. Authentic assessment requires students to actually demonstrate their skills in applying skills and knowledge they have learned from class. It involves tasks that resemble what people do in the real setting or context, such as doing an actual research, making a case study, giving a speech, or performing on a stage.
