Science Formative Assessment, Volume 2: 50 More Strategies for Linking Assessment, Instruction, and Learning

A Copublication of Corwin Press and NSTA Press
This book shows readers how to use assessment to inform instruction and learning in the science classroom. In the bestselling first volume, Page Keeley shared 75 techniques that help K-12 science teachers determine students' understanding of key concepts and design learning opportunities that will deepend students' mastery of content and standards. Volume 2 will present 50 new strategies linked to the Next Generation Science Standards. These flexible assessments can be used with any science curriculum.
The assessments include:
-- a description of how each technique promotes student learning
-- considerations for design and implementation, such as required materials, timing, modeling the technique, and grouping students
-- modifications for different types of students or purposes
-- caveats for using each technique, and
-- ways the techniques can be used in other content areas
