Review

Assessing Hands-On Science is a no-nonsense, practical guide to assessing student learning. It gives step-by-step instructions for constructing, administering, and scoring hands-on assessments that actually measure what students know. (National Science Teachers Association NSTA Recommends.)

Synopsis

The focus of this book is the assessment of middle-grade science students in the United States, where the emphasis is on 'doing' science rather than simply 'learning about' it. The book discusses performance assessments - what they measure, how they are scored and how to use them in the science classroom. Different types of assessment are introduced, and the authors list the materials needed and provide clear instructions on how to use and score each type.
