Authentic Assessment
This course explores the principles and practice of authentic assessment of student learning. Authentic assessment is a type of assessment which assesses what students know, value, and can do in a way that is well-integrated into the entire learning environment of a course and considers the contexts in which learning might be used once students leave the university. Students will learn how to create assessments that are aligned with intended learning outcomes, and will be able to design reliable, valid, and meaningful assessment measures that motivate students and help them learn.
