Authentic Assessment Toolkit
The most helpful thing I found about this site is that it provided help with assessments when real world activities are used to demonstrate mastery. I teach at a standards-based school and this website provides the four main components when creating authentic assessments. It also has links within the four components to help you better understand the topics. The four main components are: Identify Standards, Select Authentic Tasks, Identify the Criteria for the task and Create the Rubric. This is a great resource to bookmark for me to be able to go back to at any time I need additional help or thoughts when creating authentic assessments.
