Assesment Questions and Data
Here you will find free access to more than 600 items. The items:
Are appropriate for middle and early high school students.
Test student understanding in the earth, life, physical sciences, and the nature of science.
Test for common misconceptions as well as correct ideas.
This website also includes:
Data on how well U.S. students are doing in science and where they are having difficulties, broken out by gender, English language learner status, and whether the students are in middle school or high school.
“My Item Bank,” a feature that allows you to select, save, and print items and answer keys (requires site registration).
A feature that allows you to create and take tests online using items from the item collection (requires site registration).
Thank you to Margie HIll for compiling this amazing list of resources
Check out the info on the Standards for Mathematical

Although DELICIOUS is great for saving- this is also a place you can refer people to to show them collections of articles or resources you may have accumulated on a topic.
(Delicious stacks can be made public or private)
Although blogs may not be the best way to share information when you're just starting out, studies have shown that blogs are a great way to remember and learn things while you're teaching.
If you have a teacher blog, post it here and hopefully we can get more people blogging and following!
