Rosin, Triin; Vaino, Katrin; Soobard, Regina; Rannikmäe, Miia – Science Education International, 2021
Competence-based, science e-testing (CBSeT) is a novel external assessment tool which provides feedback to science teachers about their students' competence-based skills, thereby giving relevant assessment information which teachers could potentially use in their teaching practice. The aim of this study was to determine the extent to which…
