Cornerstone assessments - Jaye McTighe

This link takes you to a pdf of a set of resources called cornerstone assessments. I had heard of Jaye McTighe and Grant Wiggins and Curriculum by design a while back but recently saw a tweet by D krea_frobro747 .

Content, process, quality and result are the 4 types of performance criteria he uses.

There are some great indicator words they use; for example if you are assessing the process skills then the following adjectives help you to identify how the task has been completed.
careful
clever
coherent
collaborative
concise
coordinated
effective
efficient
flawless
followed process
logical/reasoned
mechanically correct
methodical
meticulous
organized
planned
purposeful
rehearsed
sequential
skilled
