VanLeuven, Ariel J.; Szymik, Brett G.; Ramsey, Lynn M.; Hesse, DeLoris Wenzel – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Collaborative testing and its benefits have been reported in diverse disciplines across different types of academic institutions. However, there has been minimal research conducted on collaborative assessments in medical schools, particularly in the gross anatomy laboratory. The objectives of this study were to explore the effect of collaborative…

Cassandra N. Malcom – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) skills are increasingly required of students to be successful in higher education and the workforce. Therefore, modeling assessment outcomes accurately, often using more types of student data to get a complete picture of student learning, is increasingly relevant. The Program for International…

DeGlopper, Kimberly S.; Schwarz, Cara E.; Ellias, Niall J.; Stowe, Ryan L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
To potentially engage students in "doing organic chemistry", organic chemistry courses should foreground weaving together structure- and energy-related ideas to construct causal accounts for phenomena. Here, we investigate whether enrolling in an organic chemistry course that places substantial emphasis ([approximately]50% of total…

Yi-Chun Chen; Hsin-Kai Wu; Ching-Ting Hsin – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2024
Background and Purpose: As a growing number of instructional units have been developed to promote young children's scientific and engineering practices (SEPs), understanding how to evaluate and assess children's SEPs is imperative. However, paper-and-pencil assessments would not be suitable for young children because of their limited reading and…

Ibiagbani M. Max-Harry; Grace P. Counts; Craig S. Nunemaker; Nicholas B. Whitticar – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is a valuable tool in various chemical and biological fields for investigating the presence and quantity of proteins of interest in given samples. The high importance of the assay makes it widely used in biological research and hence a crucial skill to master for up-and-coming scientists. A major…

Yizhu Gao; Xiaoming Zhai; Min Li; Gyeonggeon Lee; Xiaoxiao Liu – Grantee Submission, 2025
The rapid evolution of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is transforming science education by facilitating innovative pedagogical paradigms while raising substantial concerns about scholarly integrity. One particularly pressing issue is the growing risk of student use of GenAI tools to outsource assessment tasks, potentially compromising…

Kolomuc, Ali; Karagölge, Zafer – Journal of Science Learning, 2021
This study compares the successes of numbers 94 7th grade students in science education with assessment-evaluation questions based on skill and acquisition. Assessment-evaluation achievement tests based on skill and acquisition were developed by researchers towards the measurement of force and acquisitions in friction units taking place in the…

Lee, Jaeyong; Lee, Gyeong-Geon; Hong, Hun-Gi – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
Here, we describe the development and validation of an automatic assessment system that examines students' hand-drawn visual representations in free-response items. The data were collected from 1,028 students in the second through 11th grades in South Korea using two items from the Test About Particles in a Gas questionnaire (Novick &…

Horvat, Saša A.; Rodic, Dušica D.; Roncevic, Tamara N.; Babic-Kekez, Snežana; Horvat, Bojana Trifunovic – International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education, 2021
Mathematical calculations are an important part of chemistry. Those problems are difficult for students, especially if the task is set with a limiting reactant. The aim of this study was development of a Procedure for evaluation of cognitive complexity of the Stoichiometric Tasks with a Limiting Reactant. The procedure created included an…

Grapin, Scott E.; Llosa, Lorena – Educational Assessment, 2022
Traditionally, content assessments have been carried out through written language. However, the latest standards in U.S. K-12 education expect all students, including English learners (ELs), to demonstrate their content learning using multiple modalities. This study examined the performance of fifth-grade students at varying levels of English…

Çambay, Öznur; Kazanç, Sefa – International Journal of Education and Literacy Studies, 2021
The purpose of this study is to examine the self-efficacy perception levels of science teachers for assessment literacy in terms of various variables by determining them and to reveal the correlation between them. The research was designed in the scanning model, one of the non-experimental quantitative methods. The sample of the study consists of…

Science learning in the 21st century should develop the abilities of the students to find solutions to the problems. This task requires a set of skills called Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) and innovative assessment should be designed to gauge the acquisition of these skills. Thus, this study aimed to create an innovative HOTS-based…

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…

Provasnik, Stephen; Dogan, Enis; Erberber, Ebru; Zheng, Xiaying – National Center for Education Statistics, 2020
Large-scale assessment programs, such as the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), employ item response theory (IRT) and marginal estimation methods to estimate student proficiency in specific subjects such as mathematics, science, or reading. Each of these…
