Even more value will be gained by engaging in all three Performance Assessment for Learning stacks together.

Formative Assessments:
Performance assessments are often used as summative, end-of-unit assessments, attempting to capture the terminal demonstrations of proficiency from students. It’s important to recognize, though, that performance assessments are equally (if not more) powerful if used formatively, i.e., to provide feedback to students so that they might improve.
