Din, Feng S.; Soldan, Christina – 2001
This study investigated the effects of two practice reading methods (an ACT [American College Test]-prep program) on the performance of 11th grade students (N=43) on an ACT science portion mockup sub-test. A pre-test, treatment, post-test with control group design was used in the study. The treatments included that students read the ACT science…

Wang, Jianjun; Staver, John – 1999
Development of the test instrument in the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) was based on the expertise of many researchers, including "distinguished scholars from 10 countries" who participated on the TIMSS Subject Matter Advisory Committee. However, a close examination of the TIMSS Science items suggests that not…

Peer reviewedMackay, Lindsay D. – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1973
Discusses the variety of roles that measurement and evaluation can play in improving the quality of instruction in science. Three types of evaluation are distinguished (preparative, formative, and summative evaluation), and the purpose and value of each type in the instructional process are analyzed. (JR)

Peer reviewedWilson, Archie S. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1982
High test scores may measure general intelligence or test taking "savvy" rather than acquisition of knowledge of a particular subject. Pretests may help instructors differentiate between material students already know and good performance based on flaws in the wording of tests as indicated by pretests administered to college chemistry…

Peer reviewedJungwirth, Ehud – Science Education, 1980
Reinterpreted are findings obtained from cognitive preference test (CPT) literature and the author's personal research, in which the author states that data lend themselves to alternative explanations, not necessarily connected with cognitive preferences, and perhaps related more to "familiarity with content." Several suggestions for…
