Research On The Application Of Performance Assessment In Science Curriculum In Junior Middle School

Teaching assessment is an important part of teaching activities.The current educational philosophy advocates the cultivation of students with comprehensive development,so traditional final assessments such as paper-and-pen tests are no longer sufficient.The key point of performance assessment is reflected in the authenticity and contextuality of the assessment process,which mainly evaluates the abilities of the students in the process of completing tasks.At present,performance assessment in junior high school science courses is often used for experimental teaching,so is it also feasible in theoretical science courses.The purpose of this research aims to use investigation and quasi-experimental research to explore the application of performance assessment in conventional science classrooms,but also the feasibility and effectiveness of performance assessment in it.On the one hand,this research compiles questionnaires to investigate the understanding and application of science teachers to performance evaluation.On the other hand,a three-month quasi-experimental study was carried out.In the experimental class carried out three performance evaluation activities.The control class carried out traditional teaching methods.Experimental results are as follows:1.Performance assessment has high recognition among teachers,but the application rate is relatively low;2.Performance assessment has a positive effect on the improvement of students' interests in science;3.Performance assessment has a certain effect on the improvement of students' science scores.
