Research Of Performance Assessment To General Biology Experimental Teaching

Performance assessment is one of the most focused areas in educational measurement. In brief, performance assessment is to assess students' knowledge and skills through answers, products or procedures that students present themselves.It becomes the most focused area because of the negative effects of the standardized test. The multiple-choice test items only can evaluate what the students know, but can not evaluate what the students can do.In fact, because of the clear criteria, flexible approaches and effective results, performance assessment has become more and more important in the international science teaching, especially in the experiment teaching.This study discussed the feasibility on the application of performance assessment towards students in the experimental operation process from the current situation and shortcomings of college biological experimental teaching assessment ; explained performance assessment, history and theoretical foundation; analyzed the reasons for the use of performance assessment and the differences between performance assessment and authentic assessment and alternative assessment; discussed the mission display and assessment tools for the assignment of performance assessment; displayed several application examples of...
