Abstract

Authentic assessment is developed for overcoming the problems caused by standardized tests. In mathematics education, many economies regard students' problem-solving ability as the essential goal of mathematics education and foster students' mathematical literacy by applying mathematics teaching standards related to authenticity assessment. However, implementing authentic assessment in classroom teaching or integrating it with regular evaluations is still a challenge for teachers. This holistic review was conducted using the EBSCO host Library. Authentic assessment is identified as a tool and as a task in mathematics education. The applied characteristics in PISA, STEM, and e-learning environment are also summarized to provide suggestions for mathematics educators in utilizing authentic assessment.
