1. The document discusses authentic assessment and examines how it can be used to evaluate students' ability to apply knowledge and skills to real-world tasks through performance-based assessments. 2. Authentic assessments should reflect explicit criteria, be reliable, assess valid content, evaluate higher-order thinking, simulate real-world experiences, and include multiple domains such as cognitive, psychomotor, and affective skills. 3. The document explores various technology tools that can support authentic assessment, such as Google Apps, Voki, Webspiration, and Wikispaces, and challenges the reader to try new assessment formats, domains, and tools.
