In recent years there has been a rapid expansion of interest in
inquiry-based science education (IBSE). Classroom and laboratory
practices and materials which encourage students to take an active
part in making sense of events and phenomena in the world around
are being promoted and developed through pilot projects in
countries across the globe. Embracing IBSE recognises its potential
to enable students to develop the concepts, skills, attitudes and
interests needed for life in societies increasingly dependent on
applications of science. IBSE also engenders reflection on the
thinking processes and learning strategies that are necessary for
continued learning throughout life. There are, however, many
challenges in implementing IBSE. Central among these is the
assessment of students' learning since this has a strong influence
on what is taught and how it is taught. This book aims to ensure
that assessment practices reflect the principles and goals of IBSE
and serve to help as well as to report learning.
