The [|Astronomy Diagnostic Test] was designed to determine the level of understanding that students have before the topic begins. When answers to particular questions were analysed and found to indicate deep understanding, those students were not required to do certain activities in the Space Odyssey unit. This added to the students belief that their prior knowledge was valued and respected.
