The Center for Innovative Pharmacy Education and Research (CIPhER) cordially invites you to attend the workshop, “Creating Authentic Assessments.” In this session, traditional assessments, where students typically select answers on a multiple-choice exam will be compared and contrasted against authentic assessments where students perform a learned task in a real-world setting. The meaning and importance of authentic assessments, as well as guidance on how to effectively design and implement authentic assessments in your classroom will be discussed.
