Abstract
Assessment researchers at SRI International in Menlo Park, CA, designed a prototype scenario-based assessment to measure how well college students learn the big ideas of biology and economics and how to apply those ideas in their everyday lives. The assessment was designed to measure this skill after postsecondary or community college students had completed 2 years of general education courses.
This presentation focuses on a scenario-based assessment to measure how well college students learn.
