Authentic Assessment

Authentic assessment asks students to perform real-world tasks that demonstrate their knowledge and skills. It involves a task for students to complete and a rubric to evaluate their performance. In contrast to traditional assessments like multiple choice tests, authentic assessment uses methods like portfolios, interviews, and performances of meaningful tasks to develop productive citizens who can perform real tasks. The assessment drives the curriculum, with tasks determined first to demonstrate student mastery through application. A rubric is a key part of authentic assessment as it lists the criteria against which student work will be measured.
