ABSTRACT

In the era of core literacy, comprehensive practical activities are conducive to the cultivation of new types of talents. The Mathematics Curriculum Standards for Compulsory Education, issued in 2022, also set out higher requirements for comprehensive practical activities. Correspondingly, performance assessment is an authentic assessment method that can effectively evaluate the level of students' core literacy, which coincides with the core of comprehensive practical activities. This study summarizes 4 steps for implementing performance assessment in mathematics comprehensive practical activities: (1) Set assessment objectives according to the mathematics curriculum standards, the characteristics of mathematics comprehensive practical activities and students' actual learning conditions; (2) Design performance tasks; (3) Set up scoring rules; (4) Conduct evaluation and feedback. In summary, performance assessment and comprehensive practical activities have a good theoretical fit, but there is not enough practical experience in actual teaching and learning process, which needs to be justified by researchers at practical level.
