Abstract | This report presents general criteria for authentic pedagogy, instructional activities rooted in a primary concern for high standards of intellectual quality, as well as more specific standards that can be used to judge the quality of assessment tasks, classroom lessons, and student performance. Examples are given of tasks, lessons, and student performance that score well on these standards. Evidence is also presented, based on a study of 24 restructured schools, that authentic pedagogy can result in improved student performance regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status. Three mathematics and social studies classes at each school, in grades 4 and 5, 7 and 8, and 9 and 10 were studied, and each teacher was asked to submit at least 2 assessment tasks with information on how the task was given to students. At least two samples of student work were received from 45% of students in the classes studied. Although all of these schools had made significant progress in structural reorganization, the quality of authentic pedagogy varied widely, as did student performance. It was apparent that some teachers have barely begun the journey toward higher quality instruction and assessment in spite of the demonstrated positive effects of authentic pedagogy and assessment on student achievement. Examples of tasks, lessons, and student performance are included. (Contains 3 tables and 1 figure.) (SLD) |
