Abstract: | A practical test instrument was developed to assess students' attainment of skills associated with problem analysis and planning
experiments, collecting information, organising and interpreting information, and concluding. Students verbalised their thoughts
as they worked on the task and their performance was videotaped for analysis. Data collected from Year 7, 10 and 12 science
students illustrate the development of investigation skills and reveal important areas of student weakness.
