This document discusses authentic learning and assessment. Authentic learning adjusts teaching, learning, and assessment to apply meaningful ways for students to express what they know through authentic tasks like constructed responses, products, and performances. Traditional assessment is compared to more meaningful assessment that allows students to apply knowledge through projects, articles reviews, role plays, blogs, pen pals, wikis, reports, portfolios, collages, and surveys. The document encourages learning significantly through authentic tasks and assessment.
