A Study on the Development of Systematic Science Performance Tests for the Practical Use

本研究的目的是开发一套系统的科学绩效测试，用于评估科学学习的进展。我们在试验结果的基础上修改了以前的问题，并开发了新的问题，并根据学年水平对这些问题进行了分组，以便客观衡量各级的观察和实验技能。对160名初中生的部分成绩项目进行了问卷调查和分析，通过对已有项目的分类和新题型的开发，建立了科学的成绩测试题库。以前，我们已经开发和跟踪了34个问题；最近，我们开发和评估了另一个项目，总共制作了40个实验测试题。其中一些在所有小学、初中和高中都是常见的，而另一些则特定于某些年级的水平。大多数问题都由几个较小的问题组成。共有173个较小的问题，其中53个对应于小学水平，94个对应于初中，40个对应于高中。

The aim of this study is to develop a systematic set of the scientific performance tests for use in evaluating progress in scientific learning. We have modified previous questions on the basis of trial results and developed new questions, and grouped these according to school year level to enable objective measurement of observation and experimentation skills at all levels. We surveyed using some performance items for 160 students of the lower secondary school and analyzed it.We have compiled a database of scientific performance test items by classifying previous items and developing new questions. Previously, we had developed and trailed 34 problems ; more recently, we have developed and evaluated another items, making a total of 40 experiment test questions. Some of these are common across all elementary, lower secondary and upper secondary school levels, while others are specific to certain year levels. Most of the questions consist of several smaller questions. There are 173 smaller questions in total, of which 53 correspond to elementary school level, 94 to lower secondary school and 40 to upper secondary school.
