Resumen
Descripción
Active learning and authentic assessment are fundamental in education. Active learning engages students in critical thinking, while authentic assessment measures practical skills. By combining these approaches, we prepare students for real-life challenges and foster lifelong learning. This study aims to analyze the implications of integrating active learning and authentic assessment in education. We want to explore how this combination enhances student engagement, critical thinking, and real-world readiness, ultimately contributing to more effective and meaningful learning outcomes. For this purpose, data were retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science databases through a structured search equation. These data were compiled and processed in R software, with a total of47 records. VOSviewer and Bibliometrix software were used to map the keyword network and for overlay and density visualizations. This methodology allows us to explore current academic discussions, trends, and research gaps. Deep learning, authentic learning, problem-based learning, and entrepreneurship education are leading trends in active learning and authentic assessment research. The findings highlight the opportunity for further research and advocates for collaboration among scholars and institutions. It also presents areas of interconnectedness of active learning and authentic assessment with other pedagogical paradigms such as problem-based learning, experiential learning, and authentic learning. The study could benefit researchers and professionals interested in implementing active learning strategies. © 2025 Nini Johana Marin-Rodriguez, Blanca Viridiana Guízar Moran and Flor Silvestre Gerardou.
