There is a growing interest in the country for reform in the area of elementary science education. While most science educators recognize the need for hands-on science education, those currently engaged in reform efforts recognize that one of the crucial failings of the previous curriculum work in this area was the inability or unwillingness of developers to devise new forms of student assessment to meet the needs of material based science programs. This proposal is for an invitational conference to address the need for curriculum independent tests and assessment tools for classroom teachers to use in conjunction with instruction. New ideas about elementary science assessment can come from other curriculum areas (reading and writing), recently developed indicators of science achievement such as the National Assessment of Educational Progress assessment, new NSF-supported curriculum developments, and research on children's conceptions of science. The conference, based on a series of commissioned papers, will address how these developments can form the basis for new instruments and methods. The result will be a monograph for wide dissemination and suggestions for future developmental work in elementary science assessment.

该国对以下领域的改革的兴趣越来越大： 基础科学教育 虽然大多数科学教育者认识到 需要动手科学教育，那些目前从事 改革努力认识到， 以前在这方面的课程工作是不能或不愿意 开发商设计新的学生评估形式，以满足 材料基础科学计划的需求。 该提案是为一个 讨论课程独立需要的邀请会议 测试和评估工具，供课堂教师结合使用 带着指令 关于基础科学评估的新想法可以 来自其他课程领域（阅读和写作），最近 制定了科学成就指标，如国家 教育进展评估，新的国家科学基金会支持 课程发展，以及对儿童的概念的研究， 科学 会议将根据一系列委托撰写的论文， 探讨这些发展如何构成新文书的基础 和方法 其结果将是一本供广泛传播的专著， 对基础科学未来发展工作的建议 考核
