The Research Simulation Task
The PARCC assessments will also include performance tasks that differ from traditional assessments in two ways. First, these tasks are designed to mirror and measure more real-world skills, such as research, synthesis, and writing. Second, the tasks will be completed over an extended length of time.
For ELA, PARCC has described a research simulation as a sample of the performance task:
In session 1, students will read an “anchor text,” answer EBSR and TECR items about the text, and write a short summary of the text.
In session 2, students will read two additional texts or sources and answer more EBSR and TECR items about them. Students will then synthesize their understanding of all three sources by writing an analytical essay.
