This book provides a detailed examination of K-12 science assessment: looking specifically at what should be measured and how to measure it. Along with reading and mathematics, the testing of science is a key component of NCLB "it is part of the national effort to establish challenging academic content standards and develop the tools to measure student progress toward higher achievement. The book will be a critical resource for states that are designing and implementing science assessments to meet the 2007-2008 requirements of NCLB. In addition to offering important information for states, Systems for State Science Assessment provides policy makers, local schools, teachers, scientists, and parents with a broad view of the role of testing and assessment in science education. 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching (Elementary)$zUnited States$xEvaluation 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching (Secondary)$zUnited States$xEvaluation 606 $aScience$zUnited States$vExaminations, questions, etc 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching (Elementary)$xEvaluation. 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching (Secondary)$xEvaluation. 615 0$aScience 676 $a507.1/073 701 $aWilson$b Mark R$01054071 701 $aBertenthal$b Meryl W$01811768 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Test Design for K-12 Science Achievement. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960399303321 996 $aSystems for state science assessment$94363848 997 $aUNINA
