This article explains how teachers like myself can create and design science assessments that are beyond just memorizing facts. These assessments require students to apply their science knowledge in application-based questions, while also solving problems. The article highlights a clear process that combines knowledge, science and cross-cutting concepts. For example, Figure 2.1 is an assessment that models what the article highlights. This resource is really useful in ensuring that assessments are meaningful and fits the learning needs of the students.
