The Use of Formative Evaluation Procedures for Improvement of a Socially-Oriented Course in Chemistry

Novick, Shimshon

Studies in Educational Evaluation, 2, 1, 1-7, Spr 76

Unstructured and structured evaluation modes were used to probe teacher perceptions of a socially-oriented chemistry course for non-science majors. Students' assessments reinforced teacher perceptions. This procedure yielded information concerning course content, societal relevance, motivation, interest, laboratory and demonstration exercises, other classroom or individual exercises, and teaching problems.
