The correct answer is

C and D Only

Authentic assessment judges students through real-world, performance-based tasks that show what they can actually do and produce, rather than through decontextualised marks. Portfolios (an organised collection of a student's work showing growth over time) and Exhibitions (public demonstrations or displays of learning) are classic authentic-assessment methods — both require the learner to demonstrate skills in a meaningful, product-oriented way.
Grading, by contrast, is simply the act of awarding marks; it is an outcome of assessment, not an authentic task in itself, and is usually associated with traditional testing. Student self-assessment is a valuable reflective practice, but on its own it is treated here as a broader reflective tool rather than a defining example of authentic performance assessment.
Hence the intended answer is Portfolios and Exhibitions.
(Note: this item is debatable, since self-assessment is often listed under authentic assessment too, which is why some keys treat it as having more than one defensible answer.)
