13. Skilled movements-complex movement tasks that have be mastered • Nondiscursive communication-movement expressions that communicate a message or artform

14. Assessment • Without assessment how would we know whether our participants have achieved anything?

15. Formative Assessment • Evaluates data about participants’ progress throughout the program • Continual assessment of progress • Provides constant feedback of performance

16. Summative Assessment • Occurs at the conclusion of a program • Can focus on product or process • Can use Norm-referenced tests-compare performance to a standard or population with similar characteristics • Can use Criterion-referenced tests-compares performance to a predetermined criteria

17. Authentic Assessment • Assessment takes place in a realistic situation as opposed to an artificial or contrived setting often associated with traditional assessment approaches • I.E. Self-Assessment • I.E. Peer-Assessment • I.E. Subjective analysis
