The NGSS Performance Expectations require a rethinking of traditional assessments, especially standard paper-and-pencil tests. Are you ready?
How will you gauge how well your students:
- Identify problems and design solutions?
- Plan and conduct investigations?
- Thoroughly research and report their findings?
- Develop models?
- Articulate their thoughts and ideas through oral, written, and multimedia communications?
We can help. Use these rubrics from the Building Blocks of Science® program, which are designed to assess:
- Authentic student-generated experiments
- Student-developed models that aid in the presentation of content
- Evidence-driven, student-generated product and collaboration among peer groups
