The unequal distribution of natural resources is the direct result of past geologic processes. Once a promising region is located, geologists use a variety of techniques to find the materials and energy that society consumes. Their tools can be as simple as a hand lens or as sophisticated as a satellite. Along the way, exploration geologists and…

Purpose: When self and peer assessment methods become commonly used in the teaching process, the most important problem turns out to be the reliability of the ratings acquired from these sources. Increasing the rater reliability has great importance in the performance evaluation for the reliability of the measurement. This study aimed to determine…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine how well students' response to a morphological vocabulary intervention can be predicted before the start of the intervention from traditional static assessments and to determine whether a dynamic assessment with graduated prompts improves the prediction. Method: A planned secondary analysis of a…
