Authentic Assessment is assessment that is anchored to real problems, and it is situational. Rather that presenting hypothetical situations or scenarios to the students, authentic assessment requires that students be evaluated through real world problems and situations.
Bloom’s taxonomy:
• Cognitive domain
o Student will know how to do x
• Affective domain
o Student will have confidence, positive attitude towards math
• Psychomotor
o Subject will land the airplane 100% of the time
• Social domain (this one Bloom did not think about)
o Interaction, if two people own two different pieces of knowledge and they can teach each other what they know. Because one of the learners was there and demonstrated their performance, the other learner was able to augment their own knowledge. This is also known as ZPD.
Zone of Proximal Development represents the zone of development between where one is and where one could be. In other words it is the space between our current state and where our maximum potential is. More applicable in social contexts: wisdom of crowds, for example when we interact with others through an avatar in a virtual setting. The source of new knowledge could be a peer or a teacher.
