Tenets: Creating cultures of care in online classrooms. Using technology intentionally to build communities and enhance learning.
Annotation: In this article, the author discusses how using authentic assessments which, “require the student to ‘do’ the subject,” make the classroom more equitable and provide for a better way to understand what students know. It also promotes the idea of students as co-educators as they work to assess themselves and their own knowledge.
