This week we welcome Fred Ende back to the show.

    I enjoyed reading Fred’s article in Science Scope and it inspired me to give story assessments a try on my last quiz (I teach 7th grade life science). The student response was quite positive overall so I am looking forward to exploring this type of assessment more as the year goes on. Some of the students said the story made it feel like they weren’t even taking a test! Thanks for the idea Fred!
