You are convinced that authentic assessment is
the right way to evaluate children.
What can you do to help parents understand and
accept the authentic assessment strategies?

Journal 2
Imagine that the parents in your class are not
pleased with the authentic measures for
assessment being used. They want to know if their
children are doing as well as others. Based on
standardized test scores, they want to know if their
child is above, below, or at grade level.
You are convinced that authentic assessment is
the right way to evaluate children.
What can you do to help parents understand and
accept the authentic assessment strategies?
