Authentic assessment measures students' abilities to perform real-world tasks and demonstrate skills, as opposed to traditional testing. It engages students in solving meaningful problems and can include portfolios, observations, assignments, debates, discussions, and problem-solving. Authentic assessment is a form of non-test assessment that directly evaluates students' work on real tasks, complementing traditional testing to provide a fuller picture of learning.
