Authentic Assessment


                 

                       An authentic assessment is a form of assessment in which students are asked to perform real-world tasks that demonstrate meaningful application of essential knowledge and skills. This would help students and teachers to identify the strength and weaknesses of the students. Authentic assessment is used before or after the class to determine wither the child understand the lesson that the teacher uttered. This also helps the teacher if their teaching strategies are effective and will define. This also measures the product of learning because at the end of the duration this would help the child or a graduate to be more competitive in their field

                               Mrs. Gloria Patlunag is a Filipino teacher for almost 25 years. She practiced lot of teaching strategies and different approach in giving her evaluation to her students. From now, she has eight classes and most of the population she have is 35 to 40 students. But she said, she doesn’t  have any problems she face because college is not like high school and elementary that needs lot of things that include the classroom settings and other things to make her students comfortable. She said, she has different type of teaching. Firsts, she is the one who gives her discussion and after that she will give an evaluation such as paper and pen or a group discussion or an interaction of two.

Along the way she will assign her students to report such topic and discussed it properly. After the discussion she will give her discussion again about the topic. Also, she let her student to be creative of their visual aids whether it is a cartolina nor a power point. Because she want to see the creative side of her students.  

                               I fell that the authentic that the teacher uses is effective because she uses the traditional and new tread assessment. Just like after discussion she let her student to have discussion with group or by two’s to brain storm their idea about the certain topic and sometimes she gives an evaluation. Also she uses new found and can entertain students during discussion. For me theirs should no need to revised because as far I see the authentic assessment she use is effective but as the world revolve she need to improve it more by using new technology for the students to now the essence of discovering.
