2. A description of the assessment task
This assessment will take place toward the middle marker of the duration of the course. At the
time of this assessment, students will have many pieces that they are preparing for either a
concert or competition. Therefore this is a good time to assess students’ knowledge and
playability of these pieces. The whole piece and sections will be available for testing to avoid
students only practicing the section that will be tested on. This will only be a short test as there
will be a section from two of the pieces and the students will be instructed to play around a line
or two from the two selected pieces. The student will have the opportunity to have a one-on-one
assessment with the teacher and will not be asked to complete this assessment in front of the
whole class.
3. A rubric suitable for providing formative feedback for students and for guiding
teachers in their grading decisions.
