5 Getting Started SkillsTutor Science I is a comprehensive resource for diagnosing and remediating students basic skills in Middle School Science. The SkillsTutor management system (OTS) provides several important features: Tests students skills, providing both pretests and posttests to make initial assessments and gauge student progress Makes assignments, based on students pretest results Monitors student scores and completion of activities Produces reports for individual students Provides online documentation This guide outlines the content and activities of SkillsTutor Science I. Information on the management system (OTS) is provided under separate cover in the SkillsTutor User s Guide
6 Science I Lessons Each lesson begins with one or more tutorial screens that review a concept. Lessons continue with a number of multiple-choice questions to reinforce the student s understanding of the topic, as illustrated below. These instructions will help the student take full advantage of the features of SkillsTutor lessons: Use the mouse to answer questions: click on the correct answer. Click Hint for help in answering a question. If a question is missed, the student will be told why the answer is wrong. The student should read the response carefully, and try again. The student cannot move to the next question until the current question is answered correctly, so reading and answering carefully will save time. The student may review the instructional material at any time during the lesson by clicking Review. By clicking Review, students are taken to the first tutorial screen. From there, students can go step-by-step through the tutorial screens. To go back to previous tutorial screens one at a time, click Go Back. Clicking Return allows students to return to the page where they originally began. After reviewing the tutorial screens, the student returns to the question that was being answered before the review. The student may return to the question before completing the review by clicking Resume. There may be times when the student needs to exit the program before completing an activity. To end an activity, close the activity window. When the student finishes answering all of the questions in an activity, a score is displayed. The score, expressed as a percent, is the number of questions answered correctly out of all the questions attempted. Quizzes Quizzes operate similarly to lessons. However, quizzes have no introductory instructional material, and they do not require you to answer each question correctly before moving to the next question. Questions are presented in multiple-choice format. Detailed feedback is provided for all questions. Tests SkillsTutor offers content-area pretests and posttests modeled on standardized tests. Pretests and posttests have no introductory instructional material. Like the questions for quizzes, the test questions are presented in multiple-choice format to give students practice in answering standardized-test questions. After each test, students have the opportunity to review the questions they missed. Feedback is provided for each missed question
7 Science I Lesson Summaries SkillsTutor Science I contains 27 lessons, 3 quizzes, and 6 tests in a hierarchical arrangement designed to continually reinforce the concepts presented. On the following pages, there is a description and example for each basic skills lesson. The lessons are arranged in the following content areas: Life Science Physical Science Earth Science 6 3 6
