项目摘要

This project is a collaboration among educators from Blackfeet Community College, Diné College, Arizona State University, and Michigan State University to meet a need for culturally relevant geoscience assessment that complements place-based curriculum and pedagogy. Cultural validation of geoscience assessment contributes to more equitable assessment of undergraduate geoscience students, provides educators with a relevant means for assessing their students' conceptual understanding, involves educators in designing assessment appropriate for diverse students, and contributes to the conversation about cultural validity of science assessment in the broader science-education community. This project enhances Earth Systems Science Literacy by developing place-based assessment for diverse student populations engaged in learning geoscience through leveraging of local knowledge. As part of this collaborative work, this project provides in-service training to Tribal College educators in assessment design (including proper question layout, language use, and importance of cultural and communication validity), establishes new relationships between Tribal College and university educators, and leverages existing scholarly networks to help facilitate access to research-based educational assessment in the geosciences.

该项目是 Blackfeet 社区学院、迪内学院、亚利桑那州立大学和密歇根州立大学教育工作者之间的合作，旨在满足与文化相关的地球科学评估的需求，以补充基于地方的课程和教学法。地球科学评估的文化验证有助于对本科地球科学学生进行更公平的评估，为教育工作者提供评估学生概念理解的相关手段，让教育工作者参与设计适合不同学生的评估，并有助于在更广泛的科学教育界就科学评估的文化有效性进行对话。该项目通过利用当地知识为参与学习地球科学的不同学生群体开发基于地点的评估，从而提高地球系统科学素养。作为这项合作工作的一部分，该项目为部落学院教育工作者提供评估设计方面的在职培训（包括正确的问题布局、语言使用以及文化和沟通有效性的重要性），在部落学院和大学教育工作者之间建立新的关系，并利用现有的学术网络来帮助促进地球科学领域基于研究的教育评估。
