Investigations in Mathematics: Alternatives to Traditional Assessment will develop assessment techniques and tools that help teachers and eighth grade students focus on students' understanding of and ability to communicate about essential mathematical ideas in a wide range of realistic and imaginative situations. The Lawrence Hall of Science will assemble a group of mathematicians, mathematics educators, and mathematics teachers to create a collection of tools, called "investigations", and a process for using them which integrates assessment and instruction. In each investigation, students will be required to read, understand, conceptualize, and represent a problem situation; to use mathematical skills and knowledge to make sense of the situation; and to communicate their thinking in a form that can be understood and evaluated. Investigations will give students the opportunity to consolidate and apply their mathematical understandings to the solution of complex problems. Included in the package will be teaching suggestions for the introduction of investigations, ways to assist students as they work on investigations, sample scoring schemes, and ideas for giving students feedback on their work. The investigations will focus on the most important mathematical ideas of the curriculum.

数学研究：传统评估的替代方案将开发评估技术和工具，帮助教师和八年级学生关注学生在各种现实和富有想象力的情况下对基本数学思想的理解和交流能力。 劳伦斯科学馆将聚集一群数学家、数学教育家和数学教师来创建一系列称为“调查”的工具，以及一个整合评估和指导的使用过程。 在每次调查中，学生都需要阅读、理解、概念化和表述问题情况；运用数学技能和知识来理解情况；并以可以理解和评估的形式传达他们的想法。 调查将为学生提供巩固数学理解并将其应用于解决复杂问题的机会。 该软件包中将包括介绍调查的教学建议、协助学生进行调查的方法、评分方案示例以及为学生提供工作反馈的想法。 调查将集中于课程中最重要的数学思想。
