When we say authentic assessment is a test that reflect real-life situation.It is on how the learners apply all their learning he/she learned in a given topic.The activity that she used the authentic assessment which is to solve the word problem using linear equation,there are following steps before you arrived to the correct solution and second one is the desired product is a representation of a cubic prism made out of cardboard in geometry class.
Working on authentic tasks is a useful, engaging activity in itself; it becomes an "episode of learning" for the student
