WestEd researchers Tran Keys and Sylvia Kwon have published a report on the impact of an initiative focused on developing and using performance tasks as part of science learning. The Performance Task Development Project (PTDP) worked with the Los Angeles County Office of Education to provide professional learning opportunities to teachers focused on developing performance tasks that are aligned with the California Next Generation Science Standards. This report explores participant experiences within PTDP and the impact of this professional learning on science instruction.
