Hello

welcome to everybody in Spice CoP and thanks for your interest in Assessement thread.

It would be interesting to have more information about assessment research projects. Albert could you give us news about your plans for that topic ? Would be great!

Andreu, Peter and Dora please continue also your discussions here; All of you caught the idea of this Communities

Dear Albert,

you can search for potential project partners or like-minded colleagues using the Scientix public profile directory. To get and access to the directory, all you have to to is to create your own public profile. You can do so at http://www.scientix.eu/web/guest/register.

More info about the Scientix public profile directory is available in the Community section of the portal.

Best regards

I know of a colleague that keeps all those records when he is designing an educational research experiment. Maybe we need some incentive to keep track and analyse those data. But it would be a very good idea indeed!!!

Hi! In line with the previous quote, I wonder how many of us do keep records of assessment activities, and whether we evaluate them later on???

A very interessting paper, Valerie, and it answers also partially the other thread on assessment on informal activities.

This is a quote from the reference you give: "Formative Assessment Is Responsive in That It Can Be Informal. The teachers referred to assessment as both formal and informal. In saying this, they were usually referring to whether the information gathered was recorded and reported in some way or whether it was used in the classroom activities, without a written record being made. Formative assessment tended to be informal, with no written record of the information gathered."

Hi Carlos

I found this interesting paper about formative assessment in Science Education.

The paper describe the formative assessment done in some New Zeland classrooms and explore the practice of some science teachers.
It was published in 2000, in ten years we probably have had some updating about that But I think the paper could be a good start point to discuss on assessment and inquire about it

This is one of the biggest discussions among Portuguese teachers now a days:

What is the best way to do the assessement of skills?

Wich ones are more important in MST?

Are lab skills important?

I think that evaluate skills is a challenge and for young students makes more sense to evaluate skills than concepts. What is your opinion?
