The diagnostic tools aim to gauge prior knowledge of specific concepts in this unit that will allow the educator to adjust their lessons accordingly. Students will have the opportunity to assess their background knowledge through interactive simulations, quizzes, forms, and discussions through Padlet.

A few traditional formative assessment tools are included in this toolkit such as quizzes and worksheets. There are also more engaging formative assessments including online and in-person lab experiments that students will be guided through with a detailed procedure. Students will practice their lab techniques and ability to apply theory learned in class to real-life examples through the online and in-person lab experiments.

The two summative assessments will assess student understanding of multiple outcomes after the concepts were scaffolded through lessons, diagnostic, and formative assessments up to that point. These larger assessments will allow students to demonstrate their learning through a Google Forms assignment and titration lab experiment.

Students will also be provided with exemplars of a lab report, which outlines; poor, good, and excellent lab reports.
