| Research Abstract |
The purposes of our research were to formulate measurement tasks and analytic frameworks to assess the quality of scientific arguments written by Japanese elementary school students, and to develop instructional units for science classes that dealt with the construction of scientific arguments. We formulated an overall analytic framework and rubrics for specific written arguments. We then developed two science lessons in which students practiced constructing arguments regarding the results of their experiments. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our lessons, students performed the measurement tasks of scientific arguments before and after the unit. Through an analysis of the students' performance, we revised classroom practice for both lessons, and tested the effectiveness of the revisions. We then further elaborated the rubrics based on the features of the actual arguments written by the students.
