    Performance assessments directly measure student skills, knowledge, and abilities to apply learning to real-world tasks. They are characterized by authentic tasks with open-ended responses and no single correct answer. Developing effective performance assessments requires identifying clear learning targets, constructing engaging tasks that integrate essential skills and content, and developing detailed rubrics to evaluate student responses. While performance assessments provide rich information about student learning, they also present challenges to design, implement, and score reliably.
