Assessments for Science Teaching

这是一个为期三年的项目，以开发新的形式， 评估和教学协议， 科学教师 基于解释和基于程序 建议通过录像带进行评估。 最初，评估将基于教材 用于介绍当前科学领域感兴趣的主题 和技术融入高中课程。 这些材料， 科学教学模块，已开发的团队， 大学和工业科学家合作， 高中教师通过大学/行业科学家 罗格斯大学的科学模块课程。 此程序将 扩展从模块主题中选择的材料， 评估和教学协议。 这些评估将在以后 扩大到高中科学教师的普遍使用。 这将通过教师的共同努力来实现 以及罗格斯大学和教育考试服务中心的工作人员 (ETS)和高中科学老师一起工作 ETS研究人员 一直在领导一些参与发展非- 传统的评估模式。 ETS项目强调 教师合作发展评估 工具和学生表现的评估。 的 罗格斯大学和ETS的研究人员组成了一个联合会， 它利用了来自两个国家的个人的独特优势， 机构职能体系*** //

This is a proposal for a three year project to develop new forms of assessments and teaching protocols for use by high school science teachers. Explanation-based and procedural-based assessments that will be presented via video tapes are proposed. Initially, the assessments will be based on teaching materials which are used to introduce topics of current interest in science and technology into high school courses. These materials, science teaching modules, have been developed by teams of university and industrial scientists working collaboratively with high school teachers through the University/industry scientists Science Modules Program at Rutgers University. This program will extend materials selected from module topics to create innovative assessments and teaching protocols. These assessments will later be broadened for general use by high school science teachers. This will be accomplished through the joint efforts of faculty and staff from Rutgers University and Educational Testing Service (ETS) working with high school science teachers. ETS researchers have been leading a number of efforts involved in developing non- traditional assessment models. The ETS programs emphasize teacher collaboration in the development of assessment instruments and in the assessment of student performance. The association of Rutgers and ETS researchers forms a collaboration that draws upon the unique strengths of individuals from both institutions. *** //
