This course from the Stanford NGSS Assessment Project is designed to guide participants step-by-step in using SNAP's tools for developing 3-dimensional performance assessments. Participants will learn SNAP's procedures for defining performance outcomes, selecting phenomena, and developing a task to meet a set of criteria for high-quality assessment. Participants will have opportunities at two crucial points during the course to engage in a peer feedback process with another development team.
