Terry Rhodes Judi Kirkpatrick Drivers and Passengers Key Information Signs: “A key performance is the work (evidence) a student submits to demonstrate progress toward or achievement of a learning goal.” For example: a research paper, exam, a creative work, a taped oral presentation, a business plan, or the results of an experiment. Includes supporting material such as student self- reflection, peer review, and faculty comment.

Terry Rhodes Judi Kirkpatrick Drivers and Passengers Measure Mileposts Along the Way: Rubrics are scoring systems which define the evidence (see “Key Performance”) needed to demonstrate achievement of particular learning goals set by the major and/ or the institution. Rubrics are diagnostic (not just the student’s best work) allowing us to pinpoint student progress (or lack thereof) and achievement.
