Authentic assessments are performance-based assessments that require students to apply their knowledge and skills in real-world settings or situations. Developing solutions to a real-world problem, such as the issue of industrial toxins in drinking water, is an example of an authentic assessment. The other options involve more traditional assessments, such as essay questions, objective test questions, and mathematical problem-solving, which are not necessarily authentic assessments.
