Big Ideas About Authentic
Assessments
- Big Idea #6:
Assessment
drives
curriculum
- Also called "working
backwards"; teachers decide
tasks students need to be
able to do, then design
curriculum to give info and
skills needed
- Example: Students
need to be able to
distinguish between
editorials and news
articles. First lesson
will be about the
characteristics of an
editorial.
- Also called "working
backwards"; teachers decide
tasks students need to be
able to do, then design
curriculum to give info and
skills needed
- Big Idea #1:
Students learn
as they perform
real-world tasks
- tasks simulate
challenges faced
by adults & in
professional
settings
- teachers act
as facilitators
as students
problem-solve
- tasks simulate
challenges faced
by adults & in
professional
settings
- Big Idea #7:
Students
demonstrate
ability to APPLY
skills and
knowledge
- students
complete tasks
to show what
they have
learned
- often work well with
TA's as a way to show
that student can apply
knowledge
- Example: Students show they
know basic conversation words
by recording a short
conversation with a classmate
- students
complete tasks
to show what
they have
learned
- Big Idea #5:
Use of rubrics
to evaluate
performance
- students see rubrics
ahead of time so
they know what
they are expected to
do and need to learn
- rubrics
identify
criteria of good
performance
- students see rubrics
ahead of time so
they know what
they are expected to
do and need to learn
- Big Idea #3:
Student-structured
- students have
more choices
in how they
demonstrate
proficiency
- students have
more choices
in how they
demonstrate
proficiency
- Big Idea #2:
Uses direct
evidence
- AA's offer direct
evidence of a
student's abilities
to apply and
construct
knowledge
- traditional
assessments like
multiple choice gives
us indirect evidence
student knows
about and/or how to
do something
- Example: To show that they
understand the complex issues
following the Civil War,
students were tasked with
creating their own
Reconstruction plan.
- AA's offer direct
evidence of a
student's abilities
to apply and
construct
knowledge
- Big Idea #4:
AA's are
constructive
- AA's encourage
students to
construct meaning
as they work on
tasks
- Example: With the
Reconstruction Plan
assignment, Instead of
just learning facts about
the negative effects of
Reconstruction, students
are forced to think about
what they have learned
and make a plan for how
things could have been
different
- AA's encourage
students to
construct meaning
as they work on
tasks
