Description

A suite of eight assessment tools proposed by the National Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (CRESST) to measure learning processes and performance through concept mapping, simulation, outlining, problem solving, and related tasks.

Components

  • Eight proposed CRESST assessment tools with specifications and scalability outlooks: The report specifies eight proposed tools: Collaborative Concept Mapper, Flowcharter, Idea Generator and Evaluator, Model Simulator, Networked Team Simulator, Multimedia Concept Mapper, Outliner, and Problem Solver. Each specification lists its CRESST learning families, task, performance and process measures, scoring, development cycle, and scalability. Most are rated "Completely scalable", while the Model Simulator and Networked Team Simulator are "Scalable but use is limited by simulation content" and the Multimedia Concept Mapper is "Dependent upon user hardware". (Chung et al. (1997))
