Culturally Relevant Assessment

Culturally Relevant Assessment refers to evaluation methods designed to fairly measure students' knowledge and skills by respecting and incorporating their cultural backgrounds. Unlike traditional tests that may favor one cultural perspective, these assessments aim to recognize diverse experiences and ways of learning. This approach helps ensure that all students have an equitable opportunity to demonstrate their understanding, reducing bias and providing a more accurate picture of their abilities. In essence, it's about creating fair assessments that honor each student's unique cultural context while accurately reflecting their learning.
