Unit 6: Authentic Assessment and Feedback

Which concepts from the course seem most applicable?

Of the information shared in the course so far, what do you believe will be most applicable in your professional situation?
Which concepts will be harder for you to incorporate?

The Blog Question posted in this unit is a loaded question. First, I feel that all of the concepts we explored are essential and all work together. So to ask which is the most important, is to ask what is the most essential part of a car. If you take away the tires, or just the engine, or just the body you don't quite have car to get you real far. 

I think the driving force for effective teaching in my classroom is the Authentic Assessment. True authentic assessment will better engage the students. The rigor, relevance, and critical thinking required will handle the engagement of the students. Also authentic assessment requires valuable feedback. And authentic assessments  can easily harness many of tech. tools that we have explored, much easier than traditional teaching.
