> Assessment- could do better?
> BA Science Education Conference
> 17-18 November 2003
> British Museum, London
>
> The conference is aimed at anyone interested in science
>education and assessment from the classroom to the workplace. It will
>be a unique opportunity to meet and hear the key stakeholders engaged
>in science learning. The seminar is set against the following background:
>
>* The QCA 14-19 curriculum review
>* The Tomlinson working group on 14-19 reform
>* The Nuffield Foundation beyond 2000
>* The DfES key stage 3 strategy in England
>* The DfES announcement for a new National Centre for Excellence
>in Science and Teaching
>
> Speakers have been invited from among those already involved
>in innovative schemes such as 21st Century Science at the University of
>York, and the AS Public Understanding of Science course. The purposes
>of testing and assessment will be challenged and discussed through Open
>meetings presented and chaired by King's College London. A number of
>informal learning research projects, based within zoos, field centres
>and science museums, as well as contributions from higher education,
>where teams are used to solve problems, will also feature. These
>contributions will look particularly how students' knowledge,
>understanding and skills are assessed, and how this helps students and
>teachers to identify what students have learned. How trainees are
>assessed within industry and how assessment is used to develop
>employees will also be addressed.
>
> A limited number of free places are available on Monday 17
>November to practising teachers in maintained schools and students.
>Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. A
>supported rate is available to teachers, researchers and PGCE students.
