AUTHENTIC ASSESSMENT PRIMER - VALERIE J JANESIC...

The Authentic Assessment Primer introduces education students to the phenomenon known as
authentic assessment. As such  it is the perfect antidote to high stakes testing  since it
relies on performance and shows what a student «can do.» In an authentic approach  teachers see
assessment as a means to educate and improve student performance  as opposed to simply auditing
it on a one-shot test. Authentic tasks require quality performance connected to the learner's
world. It is multilayered and complex. The Authentic Assessment Primer provides feedback
continually and the learner self adjusts. This approach to assessment looks for higher order
thinking skills and demonstration of knowledge. Beginning  intermediate  and advanced teachers
can all benefit from understanding the goals  the process  and the techniques of authentic
assessment  such as portfolios  essays  and writing samples  recordings  role plays  journal
writing  and demonstrations to name a few. Every education student and instructor needs to read
this book.
