What's a Performance Reflection?
Semester-End Assessment: Semester Portfolio & Symposium- A Capstone Experience
- what went well or didn't go well with a specific task (reader's response, summative assessment, nature journal entry etc.)
- how performance can be improved or repeated to ensure success in remediation or the next time around.
SAMPLE Performance Reflection for Summative Assessment

Now that I have finished my third and final essay test response for the semester, the essay test on Moby Dick, I can see how I did well with interpreting the novel. Unlike my first two essay tests, I now understand how to place a passage in context. This is something I struggled with last semester and the key seems to be my reader's response. I finally have a way of writing those responses so that I'm including context when I write about a passage or story element. This is like doing "advance work" for future summatives.
SAMPLE Performance Reflection for Formative Work

I'm working on finding a balance with my reader's responses. I'm trying to ask more questions as I read and really have a dialog with the book. The passages I'm identifying are ones I hope to use in a discussion and/or a possible summative. Having an idea of which summative I want to do next is shaping what I am looking for as I read. What I need to work on is identifying connections. Those will also help with a future summative so it's like I'm getting some of that work done in advance.
