Authentic Assessment

Authentic Assessment when the teacher first determines the tasks that the students will perform to demonstrate their mastery and then a curriculum is developed to encompass those tasks, to enable students to perform those tasks well.
The assigned article discusses electronic portfolio's. I created a electronic portfolio in our Methods class and still use it. I just added some new material from our Literacy and Technology class. I find this portfolio a great place to keep all my assignments, projects, lesson plans, etc. I find that I refer back to it often. I would suggest if you haven't created one, do it! It's a great way to keep all your hard work organized. Here's the link for my e-folio...I hope you enjoy it.
