Can You Pass an Eighth Grade Science Quiz?

CSEF · 2015 Cognitive Science (Junior Division Only)

Tara L. Cole · San Juan Elementary School, San Juan Bautista, San Benito County

Overview

Objectives/Goals To find out if adults with different levels of education could pass an 8th grade science quiz with a score of 70% or better. Methods/Materials I used a basic 8th grade science quiz I found online Results Adults with higher levels of education generally did better on the quiz Conclusions/Discussion Not one person was able to score 100% on the quiz. It was very difficult to find adults that were willing to take the quiz. I found out that even adults are nervous to take a pop quiz. Many were actually embarrassed that they did not pass.

Summary statement

Did higher level of education make a difference in passing an 8th grade science quiz

Help received
