Alternative assessment refers to evaluation methods that go beyond traditional
standardized tests and exams. Instead of relying solely on multiple-choice or short-
answer tests, alternative assessment focuses on a student's ability to apply knowledge and skills in real-world or meaningful contexts.
Key Features of Alternative Assessment:
Performance-Based: Students demonstrate learning through projects, presentations, portfolios, or real-life tasks. Authentic: It assesses skills in ways that mimic real-life situations. Student-Centered: Encourages creativity, critical thinking, and self-reflection. Process-Oriented: Focuses on both the learning process and the final product.
Examples of Alternative Assessment:
1. Portfolios – A collection of a student’s work over time to show progress.
2. Project-Based Assessments – Research projects, case studies, or real-world problem-solving. 3. Presentations & Demonstrations – Students explain or showcase their understanding. 4. Peer & Self-Assessment – Encouraging reflection and evaluation of one’s own or others’ work. 5. Rubric-Based Assessments – Using rubrics to assess assignments with clear performance criteria.
