This study explores the role of conceptual coherence in science teacher learning of science‐specific formative assessment. Conceptual coherence refers to the alignment of ideas about teaching and learning and may be difficult with certain teaching practices, like formative assessment, that have a central role in accountability mechanisms in schools. The case study analyzes how one department of science teachers surfaced and managed issues of coherence as they developed and implemented science‐specific formative assessments during a 3‐year, job‐embedded professional development program. The issues of coherence shifted over the course of the 3 years of professional development as organizational changes happened at the district and the school. These shifting sources of incoherence resulted in varied uptake and use of the resources provided through professional development. When the source of incoherence was with changes introduced by the district or the school administration, the teachers did not leverage the resources provided by the professional development team. However, when the teachers surfaced issues of coherence in their classroom instruction, the science teachers relied on the professional development resources in their sensemaking. The results of this study have implications for the design of science teacher professional learning to provide teachers opportunities to manage sources of incoherence as they work to implement new instructional practices in their classrooms.

探索连贯性在理科教师对专业发展的科学特定形成性评估的理解中的作用

本研究探讨了概念连贯性在科学教师学习科学特定的形成性评估中的作用。概念上的一致性是指有关教与学的思想的统一,在某些教学实践(例如形成性评估)中可能很难做到,这在学校的问责机制中起着核心作用。案例研究分析了一个科学系教师如何在为期三年的,基于职业的专业发展计划中制定和实施针对特定科学的形成性评估时,如何浮现和管理连贯性问题。在三年的专业发展过程中,随着学区和学校组织结构的变化,一致性的问题也发生了变化。这些不连贯的变化来源导致对专业发展提供的资源的吸收和使用方式不同。当不一致的根源在于学区或学校行政管理部门引入的变化时,教师没有利用专业发展团队提供的资源。但是,当教师在课堂教学中出现连贯性问题时,理科教师在其感官上依靠专业发展资源。这项研究的结果对理科教师专业学习的设计具有启示意义,从而为教师提供了机会,在他们努力在教室中实施新的教学实践时,管理不连贯的来源。当不一致的根源在于学区或学校行政管理部门引入的变化时,教师没有利用专业发展团队提供的资源。但是,当教师在课堂教学中出现连贯性问题时,理科教师在其感官上依靠专业发展资源。这项研究的结果对理科教师专业学习的设计具有启示意义,从而为教师提供了机会,在他们努力在教室中实施新的教学实践时,管理他们的不连贯性。当不一致的根源在于学区或学校行政管理部门引入的变化时,教师没有利用专业发展团队提供的资源。但是,当教师在课堂教学中出现连贯性问题时,理科教师在其感官上依靠专业发展资源。这项研究的结果对理科教师专业学习的设计具有启示意义,从而为教师提供了机会,在他们努力在教室中实施新的教学实践时,管理他们的不连贯性。理科老师在其感官上依靠专业发展资源。这项研究的结果对理科教师专业学习的设计具有启示意义,从而为教师提供了机会,在他们努力在教室中实施新的教学实践时,管理他们的不连贯性。理科老师在其感官上依靠专业发展资源。这项研究的结果对理科教师专业学习的设计具有启示意义,从而为教师提供了机会,在他们努力在教室中实施新的教学实践时,管理他们的不连贯性。
