SUMMARY:Elementary Science Assessments: New Landscape Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Computational thinking is increasingly recognized as foundational to science learning — but finding validated tools to measure it in early grades is harder than it should be. \nIt’s one of the topics our webinar speakers are uniquely positioned to address. On Wednesday\, July 29 from 1–2 ET\, Dr. Bill Penuel will facilitate a webinar with Drs. Megan Silander\, Sania Zaidi\, and Lukas Winfield from EDC.org — the leads behind the Elementary Science Collection\, housed as an Annenberg Institute’s EdInstruments collection. Together they’ll cover: \n\nWhat assessments currently exist for measuring early elementary science learning\nHow science assessment has evolved alongside NGSS and three-dimensional learning\nKey gaps and debates in the field\nHow to use the collection to find the right tools for your work\n\nMegan is a Principal Research Scientist at EDC and leads national and international initiatives advancing pre-K–12 education policy and programs. Sania is a Senior Research Scientist at EDC and an expert in assessment design and K–12 STEM instructional literacy. Lukas is an experienced mixed-methods researcher and evaluator of STEM education. \nPlease join us\, whether you’re a researcher\, district or state leader\, teacher leader\, or science supervisor.
