FCI+Data

If you give the FCI to your students, please upload your data (without student names). Please include any additional data that you can. Personally, I plan to start collecting FCI scores in excel with the following data:

Instruction || Interactive Lecture Demos || Ranking Tasks || Modeling Methods || Workshop Physics || Multiple Representations || Of course, I won't include an actual student name, and I am not sure how I will include socioeconomic status. The rest of the data should be pretty easy to include as a check mark deal. The FCI is a handy tool to use to check our own methods of instruction. If we collect a reasonable amount of data, some PER researchers might want to use it. I plan to upload my files in excel.
 * ||  ||   ||   ||   ||   ||   ||   ||   ||   |||||||||||| During mechanics instruction did you use: ||
 * Student || Course Level || pre-score || post-score || gender || # student drops || Socioeconomic Status || attendance rate || # physics courses completed || hs science sequence || Peer

Have a good one. plulai.

these pages are accessed by students and corrupt the learning process. they are also against the modeling teachers acceptable use policy. please remove = [|http://modelinginstruction.org] = = Modeling Instruction Acceptable Use Policy = You are free to use the curriculum materials in this manual or found on the Modeling Instruction website in their current form or modify them to meet your instructional needs. Should you choose to share your own versions of these materials with colleagues, you must give fair attribution as to their source. Many teachers find it valuable to post documents and/or solutions for their students to access. However, AMTA does not have the fiscal or human resources to rewrite worksheets every few years simply because the current ones have been distributed in a way that allows them to become a part of the public domain. Unless you can put solutions to worksheets for your students on a membership/password protected website (e.g. Moodle, Edmodo), you are expressly forbidden to do so. //Under no circumstances// should you put quizzes, tests or solutions to these on any website. The integrity of our evaluation instruments depends on students not having access to them beforehand. If you wish to share tests and/or test solutions with your students, we suggest you post a hard-copy in your classroom. Please keep in mind the following guidelines for posting anywhere on the web:

 Worksheets
Worksheets may be posted as desired on a password protected website as indicated above, but do not remove the copyright statement from the footer of any page.

 Worksheet solutions
Worksheets with solutions included should only be posted for a limited amount of time. Remove them within a few days/weeks of posting (and perhaps inform your students that they will not be there when finals roll around). Again, do not remove the copyright statement from the footer of any page.

 Tests and/or tests with solutions
 Do not ever post quizzes/tests/solutions to the web. Remember that once posted electronically, it is very easy for students to re-post these documents to other file-sharing sites. The integrity of our evaluation instruments depends on students not having access to them beforehand. If you wish to share tests and/or test solutions with your students, we suggest you post a hard-copy in your classroom.

You can copy the data and the Excel file will analyze it for you. There are instructions on the first sheet of the Excel file. Let me know if there are any questions. ~ Mike Maloney (mister.maloney@gmail.com)
