Welcome to the FIRST Assessment Repository.
|
|
61
|
The repository contains detailed information on assessment tools used
|
|
62
|
[primarily] in biological and ecological science courses.
|
|
63
|
Records herein adhere to a standard educational metadata specification
|
|
64
|
and enable educators to explore effective teaching models and techniques.
|
|
65
|
</p>
|
|
66
|
<p class="intro">
|
|
67
|
The aim is to associate outcome measures (i.e. student test scores) with the particular concepts
|
|
68
|
on which the student is being tested and also associate the specific instructional techniques employed
|
|
69
|
when presenting that material to the student.
|
|
70
|
</p>
|
|
71
|
|
|
72
|
<p class="intro">
|
|
73
|
The repository relies primarily on data collected from and submitted by
|
|
74
|
professors and instructors. While this system is still in active development,
|
|
75
|
a quick search should reveal the depth, flexibility, and utility of the model.
|
|
76
|
And, of course, feedback is strongly encouraged and greatly appreciated.

|
