Evaluation of Procedure-Based Scoring for Hands-On Science Assessment.

Baxter, Gail P.; And Others

Journal of Educational Measurement, v29 n1 p1-17 Spr 1992

A procedure-based observational scoring system and a notebook completed by students were evaluated as science assessments for 41 fifth grade students experienced in hands-on science and 55 fifth grade students inexperienced in hands-on science. Results suggest that notebooks may be a reasonable, although less reliable, surrogate for observed performance. (SLD)
