Using performance assessment to assess and develop understanding of probability

With the emphasis on assessment for learning (AFL) in the mathematic curriculum of the New Education System for the 21st Century (SPN 21) in Brunei, teachers have been trying their best to incorporate assessment and learning together in a well-designed mathematics lesson. Performance assessment is s...
