Innovation in Math and Science Assessment in a Digital World

This session explored how innovative digital tools can move math and science assessment from prototype to scalable practice. As education becomes increasingly digitized, students need more than traditional subject knowledge — they must develop skills such as modeling, problem-solving, reasoning, and applied thinking. However, these skills have often been difficult to measure accurately with traditional multiple-choice formats. To address this challenge, the team collaborated with GeoGebra to develop an open-source Portable Custom Interaction (PCI) for QTI, enabling interactive, simulation-based math and science tasks to be embedded directly into online assessments. The presentation showcased the GeoGebra PCI in action, sharing lessons learned from development through large-scale implementation. The speakers also examined how these immersive item types influence student engagement, assessment effectiveness, and the measurement of essential STEM problem-solving skills. Attendees left with insights into how open standards and collaboration can help transform innovative assessment design from small pilot projects into classroom-ready practice, advancing both engagement and measurement in STEM learning.
