Learning Bank 17- Assessment in a Constructivist, Technology-supported learning.

                          I learned from lesson 17 that the traditional paper-and-pencil test will prove to be inadequate to measure basic skills integrated with higher order thinking skills. And the most appropriate for the Constructivist classroom is the Authentic Assessment because here the students measure their collective abilities, written and oral expression skills, creativity,analytical skills and etc. and another is that the students perform in a real world task because here in this assessment it includes performance assessment- a reliable measure of skills learned and Product assessment- a proof of the acquisition of skills.

                          I can apply my learning o my chosen field by applying the most appropriate for the Constructivist classroom "The Authentic Assessment" so that I can measure each of my student basic skills integrated with higher-order thinking skills and not the traditional paper-and-pencil test because it is prove to be inadequate measure basic basic skills of the student and also because it cannot evaluate of what authentic assessment do.
