The purpose of this study was to examine the methodology of developing authentic tasks. First, I reviewed the perspectives and methods of the authentic task development. Second. I analyzed the process from the development of the authentic tasks to practice. The analysis of the process went mainly from the record left on Web. The following three points were obtained: (1) Circulatory Type Web Examination System that was related to the authentic taskdevelopment offered the chance not only to reduce a time, spatial distance of the developer and the practitioner, but also to make both reflect the development process of the task. (2) When the authentic task development on the Web was examined, the viewpoints were mainly in "content of the task" and "rubric" before we practiced it. However, the viewpoints were shifted to the analysis of "consideration of the answer" and "the children's reaction" after we had practiced it. (3) In the authentic tasks, the setting of the context that duplicates the problem of a plural reality for the child is more important.
