Formerly a SkyLight publication. Steeped in the sweeping ideas of Project 2061-the new vision for science education for the 21st century-this hands-on classroom resource furnishes a set of carefully crafted, integrated performance assessments and offers practical guidelines for educators to develop similar assessments of their own. The prototypic assessments are designed so that students can demonstrate their knowledge and abilities in science in a multitude of ways, such as through investigation, problem solving, inventiveness, and inquiry. In addition, the assessments effectively integrate the new visions for mathematics and language arts education into science instruction. Classroom 2061: Activity-Based Assessments in Science Integrated with Mathematics and Language Arts is divided into two sections. The first section clearly articulates the new visions for science, mathematics, and language arts education and provides detailed guidelines for developing meaningful, integrated performance assessments. The second section offers ten ready-to-use models of performance assessments that are linked to national standards and incorporate a variety of ways to assess students content understanding; process and thinking skill acquisition; habits of mind, or scientific dispositions; and ability to make real-world connections. The model assessments engage students in fascinating exploration activities and include reproducible student-response pages, writing prompts, criterion-referenced tests, and scoring rubrics. With this handy resource, you can incorporate the rich, integrated performance assessments in Classroom 2061 into your lesson plans and allow students to examine the world in unique and exciting ways while they simultaneously yield reliable performance data. Or, using the detailed and proven guidelines provided, you can develop your own multidimensional performance assessments to meet the specific needs and interests of your students.
