| Wouldn't it be helpful to know what your students' ideas are about a particular science concept before you launch into a new lesson? In each volume of the Uncovering Student Ideas series, author Page Keeley and her co-authors include 25 short formative assessment probes that can help pinpoint what your students know (or think they know)—allowing you to monitor student learning and adjust your teaching strategies accordingly. The probes—which cover physical, life, Earth and space sciences, as well as nature of science and unifying themes—are invaluable formative assessment tools you can use either at the beginning of each topic or unit or as you progress through specific lessons. |
