Book synopsis

Educators are searching for more authentic ways of assessing learning similar to what occurs in real life situations. Simultaneously, stakeholders are demanding transparency and accountability from educators. This book is therefore timely and seeks to fill that gap by clarifying what authentic assessment is and providing readers with step-by-step live examples. Teachers can learn to assess the kinds of skills and knowledge that students need in real life situations. This book takes you right to the heart of authentic assessment, thus saving you precious time and energy. Issues regarding validity and reliability are addressed and readers can select from the examples provided which authentic tasks they wish to use. The ideas presented in this book are drawn from over 45 years of academic experience, practising across all continents and operating at all levels: early childhood, primary, secondary and tertiary. Using a constructivist paradigm, students are able to experience personal growth and development; make sense of their own experiences; and find endless opportunities to self express and self actualise
