"A performance approach to understanding is justified. Focusing on performances immediately marks an important shift: Instead of "mastering content," one thinks about the reasons why a particular content is being taught and how best to display one's comprehension of that content in a publicly accessible way. When students realize they will have to apply knowledge and demonstrate insights in a public form, they assume a more active stance vis-a-vis material, seeking to exercise their "performance muscles" whenever possible."
