I have written and assisted others to write goal plans where an EFF standard was chosen and the components of performance were used to suggest some of the necessary action steps required to reach the goal. I am thinking about how the components of performance of a standard can be used as checkpoints for what one does and also be used for evaluating or setting a value on the performance quality at the end. Part of being able to evaluate the effectiveness of a performance or product is having a statement of what quality looks like for the particular situation. I have looked over the standards with their components and it seems that what quality looks like would depend on the purpose and context for the activity in each individual case. Considering the Convey Ideas in Writing Standard, a quality business letter would look different from a quality handout or a quality research paper. The performance tasks based on EFF standards include the ways the task requires the performer to use each of the components of performance. How do the components play into final evaluation? When I look at evaluations based on knowledge base, fluency and independence I can’t see the components anymore. Are they still in there? It seems like a standard is something you evaluate to. How do people think the EFF standards work that way?
