New paper from @dianamfranklin1 -- the correlation between student *use* of a @scratch programming construct is only weakly correlated with their *understanding* of that construct. Artifact analysis isn't enough to measure learning. https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3341525.3387379 …
I really wonder if these results would change if the assessment wasn't pen/paper. The curriculum seems to be centered around live experimentation (e.g. as shown). Run, observe, remix, repeat. Should a child's understanding be judged by standalone, non-interactive tasks?pic.twitter.com/IitS0F7SsX
Imagine a physics class, where kids are taught scientific method and how to run experiments. Curriculum focuses on making hypotheses, interpreting observations, so on. If the exam is just word problems about using physics formulas, does that test understanding?
In this question, how would a child actually solve it at a computer? They would probably run the code and observe. I feel like we should ask questions that more closely build on students' skills.
