Abstract

As performance-based curricula and teacher accountability gain greater emphasis, teachers need avenues to ensure that their students are learning the mathematics content being delivered. According to the NCTM's Assessment Standards for School Mathematics (1995), assessment practices should enable teachers to assess students' performance in a manner that reflects what students know and can do. Unfortunately, the typical classroom assessments, such as chapter tests, homework assignments, and the like, rarely accurately reflect the depth of mathematical understanding expected to meet performancebased standards like those found in NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (2000).
