ABSTRACT
The research shows that authentic assessment is an effective assessment approach at the
higher education level. Therefore, it will be important to investigate the effect of authentic
assessment on academic achievement and attitudes towards educational measurement in teacher
education and to examine the views of prospective teachers about authentic assessment. This
research, unlike the existing research, aims to investigate authentic assessment with a mixed
research method that uses both quantitative and qualitative methods. In addition, no studies have
been found in the literature on the effect of authentic assessment on the attitude towards
educational measurement, which is one of the dependent variables of the study. For these
reasons, it can be said that the research will make a significant contribution to the related
literature.
METHODS
In this research study, a quantitative methodology will be employed to investigate the
effects of authentic assessments in social studies education at Bugo Elementary School with
Eight (8) respondents from different grade levels. The primary data collection method is a 15-
item quantitative questionnaire designed as a survey instrument. This questionnaire aims to
measure various aspects of participants' confidence and readiness in adapting teaching strategies
for diverse grade levels. The Likert scale, ranging from "Strongly Agree", “Agree", “Strongly
Disagree, “Disagree” will be utilized for participants to indicate their agreement with statements
reflecting different dimensions of authentic assessments.
These dimensions include the perceived effectiveness of authentic assessments in
gauging students' understanding, their impact on teacher-student engagement, and the extent to
which authentic assessments enhance critical thinking skills. The survey will cover topics such as
differentiated instruction, flexible grouping, assessment and evaluation, classroom management,
collaborative learning, technology integration, and the importance of professional development
and parent/guardian relationships. By exploring these areas, the questionnaire aims to provide a
comprehensive view of teachers' perspectives on their capabilities in diverse classroom settings.
The collected data will be subjected to thorough analysis, involving the calculation of mean
scores and statistical tests to identify significant trends.
This analytical approach will allow researchers to draw conclusions about the perceived
effectiveness of strategies and the importance of factors like technology, collaboration, and
ongoing professional development in enhancing educators' capabilities. Ultimately, the findings
from this research endeavor will contribute valuable insights into the nuanced perspectives of
teachers regarding the benefits and challenges of incorporating authentic assessments in social
studies education.
CONCLUSION
The research contributes valuable insights into the perceived benefits and challenges of
incorporating authentic assessments in social studies education at the elementary level. The
positive responses from teachers in Bugo Elementary School suggest that authentic assessments
have been effective in achieving the goals outlined in the new curriculum, fostering a more
dynamic and engaging learning environment aligned with 21st-century skills. The findings imply
that further exploration and implementation of authentic assessments could enhance the overall
quality of social studies education in elementary schools.
