Authentic assessment emphasizes the application of knowledge and skills in contexts that mirror real-world practice. In health sciences education, authentic assessment tasks—such as clinical simulations, case analyses, portfolios, and project-based evaluations—measure how effectively learners can integrate theory with practice. These approaches align evaluation with the competencies and professional judgment required in health care settings. In both didactic and clinical environments, authentic assessment supports deeper learning, promotes reflective practice, and enhances students' readiness for professional roles. It shifts evaluation from recall-based testing toward demonstration of learning in complex, realistic situations that reflect professional standards and values.
