\label{BridgeTask_About}
-Bridge Tasks (BTs) are open-ended, performance-based assessments. BTs are based on a mastery-model of assessment and evaluated on a pass-fail basis. You may use BTs in a variety of ways, from supporting the scoring of a final project, to individual lab assignments. See Introduction to Bridge Task {\ref{BridgeTask_Intro}) for a more in-depth explanation to Bridge Tasks. The main features of a bridge task (\ref{BridgeTask_Features}) section gives the differences between BTs and other assessments.

An author creates a bridge task either by writing the XML code or by using the edit mode and publishing it. A course coordinator must then place the Bridge Task resource in his/her course's document list. The section on Bridge Task Creation (\ref{BridgeTask_Create}) describes how to author as well as set up these Bridge Tasks.
