Assessment Tools in Informal Science

Program in Education, Afterschool and Resiliency (PEAR)

March 03, 2010 by Gil Noam

The Program in Education, Afterschool and Resiliency (PEAR), a Mclean Hospital-Harvard Medical School joint initiative, led by Dr. Gil G. Noam, developed a searchable online database- Assessment Tools in Informal Science (ATIS). Based on an evaluative framework by NSF (Alan Friedman et al), this is a one-stop venue if you want to evaluate your informal science programming from kindergarten to high school. Choose from 16 posted tools, assess a wide array of dimensions, read and write tool reviews, link ATIS to your website, get in touch with tool authors and colleagues, and much more!!!
