Design of Student Assessment Tools for the Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) Program

9801851 SRI国际与范德比尔特大学的认知和技术小组合作，开发学生评估工具，为教师和学生提供关于全球计划目标进展的证据。学生评估工具有三个主要目的：1)评估学生对全球概念的深刻理解以及他们进行和解释全球调查的能力；2)为全球教师的教学决策提供信息；3)为全球计划的评估提供形成性信息。促进发展的三种评估工具是：1)全球议定书测试，2)要求在全球调查区域内应用和解释测量结果的任务，以及3)强调地球系统相互依存关系的综合在线调查。此外，该项目正在制定评估发展指南和模板。全球学生评估工具将成为教师指南、全球网站和其他全球培训资源的一部分。

9801851 SRI International is in partnership with the Cognition and Technology Group at Vanderbilt University to develop student assessment tools that provide teachers and students with evidence about progress on the GLOBE program goals. The student assessment tools serve three major purposes: 1) assess students' deep understanding of the GLOBE concepts and their ability to conduct and interpret GLOBE investigations, 2) provide information to GLOBE teachers for instructional decision-making, and 3) provide formative information to the evaluation of the GLOBE Program. Three types of assessment tools for development are: 1) tests of the GLOBE protocols, 2) tasks requiring application and interpretation of measurements within the GLOBE investigation areas, and 3) integrated, on-line investigations emphasizing Earth systems interdependencies. In addition, the project is creating assessment development guidelines and templates. The GLOBE student assessment tools are to be part of the Teacher's Guide, the GLOBE Web site, and other GLOBE training resources.
