In pairs according to subject area, review the definitions of the hierarchical levels. Now each of you write a couple of objectives for specific tasks, either paper-and-pencil or performance, for the different levels of the hierarchy. From these, together create a scenario of a student’s degree of fulfillment of each of these objectives.
Now you are ready to role-play before the group. Alternate the roles of the teacher and student in a discussion of whether each record of the student’s performance should be entered into the portfolio, and if so, whether it should be a process or a product work sample. Following each of the role-playing sessions, invite comments from the group.
