Introduction to the Searchable Tools
While the CATs represent broadly applicable assessment techniques, the tools are discipline-specific instruments that are "nested" within CATs (e.g., Conceptual Diagnostic Tests represents a general category of assessment technique; The Astronomy Diagnostic Test is a specific tool for use in an introductory astronomy course). Since some instructors may be looking for convenient, time-saving, discipline-specific tools or instruments that may be implemented directly with only a modicum of additional effort, we have devised a database of appropriate tools. The database can be sorted by discipline or CAT, or searched by discipline, purpose or CAT.
Contributions to the FLAG
| Currently the staff of FLAG is accumulating a growing number of such tools, however at present we have only a representative number of exemplary offerings. Please help us add to our menu of exemplary tools! Send your suggestions and tools to FLAG administrator, Dr. Tony Jacob at: atjacob@facstaff.wisc.edu. Your suggestions and tools will be reviewed by the FLAG Editorial Board for possible inclusion in our database. We appreciate your willingness to share your work with a rapidly expanding, international group of committed SMET instructors. |
