Construction of Evaluation Model for High School Biology Scientific Inquiry Literacy
Literacy of scientific inquiry is foundational to the study of biology. It embodies the discipline’s characteristics and values deeper engagement with the biology curriculum. In order to evaluate inquiry practices in biology more accurately and to further develop students’ scientific inquiry literacy level, we construct a three-dimensional assessment model of scientific inquiry literacy utilizing biological knowledge, scientific inquiry skills, emotional attitudes and values based on the three-dimensional structural model of Gilfert’s intelligence.

The Effects of Behavioral Skills Training (BST) with Peer models on Interactive Play with Students with Moderate to Severe Disabilities
The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of Behavioral Skills Training (BST) with peer models on the interactive play with students with moderate to severe disabilities in the classroom. Four students with disabilities and four typically developing students participated in this study. Two separate multiple baseline designs across participants were used in this study. The first multiple baseline design focused on the accuracy of peer models’ implementation of the play intervention steps, and the second focused on the students with multiple disabilities and the percent of intervals of interactive play. In the first intervention phase, experimenters used BST to teach peer models to implement three interactive play activities with target students. During the second intervention phase, peer models implemented the previously mastered procedural steps using picture task analyses as cues to teach target students to engage in interactive play activities. The results of the study indicated that BST is effective in training peer models to initiate and maintain interactive play with students with disabilities. Also, the peer models can generalize their skills to different subjects and with different activities. The target students’ interactive play behavior increased extensively in the intervention and generalization sessions.
