task-based assessment

Task-based assessment is a method used to evaluate skills and abilities by having individuals perform real-world tasks directly related to the skills being tested. Instead of just answering questions or taking tests, people demonstrate their competence through practical activities, such as completing a project or solving a problem. This approach provides a more accurate picture of how well someone can apply their knowledge in actual situations, making it useful for areas like language learning, job skills, or technical training. It emphasizes performance in realistic tasks over theoretical knowledge alone.
