Assessment in A HAnds-On envirOnment
Assessment in a hands-on environment should provide opportunities for students to manipulate
materials. For the K’NEX DNA, Replication and Transcription kits, such activities might include:
building structures, transcribing DNA, or simulating mutation events. Throughout this Teacher’s Guide,
there will be activities labeled “Create/Assess” that provide ideas for inquiry-based extensions of the
basic lesson. These activities will both challenge and reinforce student understanding of the basic
concepts and, therefore, are suitable for use in assessment.
nAtiOnAl science educAtiOn stAndArds Alignment
The structure and function of DNA and RNA involve core concepts that are essential to fields of study
ranging from medicine to forensics. Legal and ethical decisions that require an understanding of basic
DNA-RNA concepts and related technology are made daily in our society, making this content an
essential part of science education.
The K’NEX DNA, Replication and Transcription kit and Teacher’s Guide can be used to support
science curricula at Grades 5-8 and 9-12 levels with hands-on, inquiry-based instruction. This
instruction aligns with the National Science Education Standards as shown in Table 1 below.
Students and teachers are also encouraged to use the U.S. Department of Energy’s genome
web site at http://www.doegenomes.org/ for easy access to a wealth of additional information
and teaching resources on DNA, genomics and proteomics.
