ASSESSMENT?
WHY GRASPS?

4. GRASPSis a model
advocated for by
Grant Wiggins and
Jay McTighe to
guide teachers in
designing authentic
performance-based
assessment.

5. It’s a form of assessment
that engages learners to
employ their thinking skills
and demonstrate application
of the essential knowledge,
conceptual understanding,
and skills acquired
throughout a unit of
learning.

6. Authentic assessments are
engaging and worthy problems or
questions of importance, in
which students must use
knowledge to fashion
performances effectively and
creatively.

7. The tasks are either replica of
or analogous to the kinds of
problems faced by adult
citizens and consumers or
professionals in the field.
