Abstract

In principle, educators can use writing to scaffold students’ understanding of increasingly complex science ideas. In practice, formative assessment of students’ science writing is very labor intensive. We present PyrEval+CR, an automated tool for formative assessment of middle school students’ science essays. It identifies each idea in a student’s science essay, and its importance in the curriculum.
