Biography

Min Li is an academic with a strong focus on Measurement and Statistics, especially in the context of assessments in education. Her primary research centers around the 'assessment triangle,' which highlights the relationship between learning, assessment, and interpretation. Her earlier work involved comparing various concept-mapping techniques, while her recent research emphasizes analyzing large-scale test items like those in the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). Li aims to explore how assessment tools can better reflect cognitive factors linked to science education. In addition, she collaborates with teachers on a development project designed to enhance formative assessment practices through the use of science notebooks. Her future research plans include examining student responses to test items and improving assessment practices to foster student learning, which may include interdisciplinary collaborations with teachers and scientists.
