Through this assessment, students are given the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities, creativity, and learning progress more comprehensively.The method used in this study is a literature review by utilizing various scientific sources such as books, journals, articles, and previous studies related to portfolio assessment and authentic evaluation in learning. The collected data were analyzed descriptively to determine the effectiveness of implementing portfolio assessment in teaching and learning activities.The results of the study indicate that the implementation of portfolio assessment can increase student participation in learning, foster responsibility toward assignments, develop creativity, and train reflective thinking skills. In addition, portfolio assessment helps teachers evaluate students’ learning development more comprehensively and objectively because it focuses not only on final results but also on the learning process experienced by students.
