Goals What has changed or is new for… Scientific Inquiry as a Local Performance Assessment Scientific Inquiry Scoring Guides Instructional Model to elicit a work sample Resources are available for Scientific Inquiry as a State Work Sample Other Professional Development Opportunities

State Education Law OAR: adopted June 2008 changed the state law for science to require a local performance assessment: -In grades 3-8 and High School, students must complete at least one annual Scientific Inquiry local performance assessment via work sample or comparable measures adopted by the district. Scientific Inquiry not yet included in the Assessment of Essential Skills requirement for HS, but may be included as evidence of critical thinking when phased-in.

Instructional Model What experiences do students need to allow them to conduct a scientific inquiry investigation and produce a scientific inquiry work sample? Students need: EXPERIENCES

Instructional Planning What do students need to know to conduct a scientific inquiry investigation and produce a scientific inquiry work sample? Students need: KNOWLEDGE

Instructional Planning What skills do students need to have to conduct a scientific inquiry investigation and produce a scientific inquiry work sample? Students need: SKILLS

Instructional Model Experience Knowledge Skills Scientific Inquiry Work Sample (Based on Design Space concept by Dr. Dave Hamilton, Science Assessment Specialist, Portland Public Schools)

Instructional Model

Scientific Inquiry Scoring Guide Forming a Question or Hypothesis Designing an Investigation Collecting and Presenting Data Analyzing and Interpreting Results Four Dimensions:

Scoring Guide Achievement Scale

Important Issues “Preponderance of Evidence” means… the evidence from the student work most closely aligns with the bullets at a specific level. Evidence from throughout the work sample can be used to score each dimension.

Words of Wisdom Assessment is only truly successful when results are used to improve instruction for individual students. -Johnson, 1987

Using the Scoring Guide to Provide Feedback Research suggests: FEEDBACK is MORE important than earning a grade or points because feedback informs… --student performance and --teacher instruction. (Butler, R and 1988)

Using the Scoring Guide for Formative Assessment The Scoring Guide is meant to be used as more than a summative assessment tool. The Scoring Guide can be used to improve scientific inquiry teaching and learning.
