Task Description: You will plan and write a 1000 word (± 100) critical essay which draws upon the course textbook, Essentials of Science Classroom Assessment, and other readings which you should research. Your essay should focus on two key examples of best practice in science assessment which have been noted in the literature, with an emphasis on young learners. You should give a justification for the choice and examples given from cited sources to support this. Remember that ADSM and Teacher Guide documentation could be a great resource for you – please see Collins files in the library. You might also like to refer to your practicum experiences. This essay should include references to either formative, summative assessment or both, and their importance. Remember we are looking for critical reflections and analysis of best practice. Here are some guidelines for you to follow and which will help you to do well in this assignment! Structure: The essay should follow standard guidelines for professional report writing – start with an introductory paragraph (approximately 150 words) – what are you going to be telling your reader about and what is the approximate layout of your essay? Then, have one or more paragraph for each of the best assessment practices you choose to write about (approximately 350 words each). You should finish with a short conclusion where the main ideas are wrapped up (approximately 150 words). Example of how you might describe an example of ‘best practice’ in science assessment: To help you, here is an example. Let’s say you would like to discuss the use of formative peer assessment in science skills. You should a) describe the tool, b) give an example of where or how this is used c) give your opinion as to why this is an effective tool. Either b) or c) should be supported by references to literature. Note: I want the essay in your own words, without copy , with resource. I need it done before 12pm of 2/2/2017.
