2013 Call for Geoscience Literacy Exam (GLE) Assessment Assistance

Fill out this short form to express an interest in helping with the InTeGrate GLE assessment efforts.

The Geoscience Literacy Exam (GLE) probes concepts elucidated in recently released Earth, ocean, atmosphere, and climate science literacy documents. It includes a suite of questions that address the core content areas at the understand- or apply-level that would normally be covered in introductory classes. The exam set also includes an equal number of more challenging questions at the understanding- through analyzing- cognitive levels.

We seek faculty who are willing to use existing GLE questions in their classroom as a pre-/post- test, who can assist the team in developing new GLE questions, and/or who will help the team in building a computer-gradable essay question database by scoring essay responses.
