As an exemplary coach, your methodologies in the classroom and on the field have become a stellar example of a constructivist-based teaching and learning environment.

With a rather conservative-to-moderate view of constructivism, you provide your athletes with learning experiences in which they construct their understanding of particular topics through planned group activities, and build skills through observation and practice. Generally speaking, your coaching strategies reflect both a social and cognitive perspective of constructivism.

In conjunction with your improved and innovative approach to coaching, you do not assess your students’ learning via traditional, one-dimensional tests. Rather, you assess your students’ learning through various types of authentic assessments.

Your task for the Module 4 Case is to prepare a 3-page research-based and professional practice-based rationale that supports the use of authentic types of assessments.

Please be sure to answer the following questions in your discussion:

• What is “authentic assessment”?
• What are specific examples of authentic assessment in the classroom and on the practice field?
• How is authentic assessment different from traditional assessment measures?
• What are the benefits/advantages of authentic assessments over traditional assessment measures?

Below are some examples of authentic assessment:

Classroom: student-centered and teacher-centered scenarios, as well as self-assessment, surveys, and portfolios.

On the Field: player-centered and coach-centered, as well as real-life scrimmages, drills, self-videos, biometrics, and interventions.
