Abstract | This digest considers the use of performance assessment within outcomes-based accountability systems for students with and without disabilities. Application of performance assessment to students with disabilities involves defining the outcomes, developing performance standards, developing assessment accommodations, and scoring. Implications of using performance assessments for accountability are increased program costs, the need to set performance standards, and the need to specify outcomes and indicators. Considerations for including students with disabilities in outcomes-based accountability systems are the common set of outcomes across students, appropriate accommodations, and modifications of scoring standards. Programs in Kentucky, Maryland, and Vermont have adopted performance-based assessment in outcomes-based systems. Educators are urged to use strategies which increase the potential for success of students with disabilities when using performance assessments in outcomes-based systems. (DB) |
