The fundamental forms of science assessment that result in learning addressed by the assessment component include the following student outcomes: (a) identifying, constructing, or distinguishing between of
examples illustrating the presence or absence of a concept in
everyday scenarios, (b) predicting or describing how to produce a specific outcome in
everyday scenarios, based upon knowledge of concept relationship (s), and (c) explaining plausible reasons for an occurrence based upon prior knowledge of relevant concept relationships (i.e., abductive reasoning).
