A paper inspired by the Summit on Assessment of Informal and Afterschool Science Learning organized by the National Research Council and the Program in Education, Afterschool, and Resiliency (PEAR) at Harvard University. This paper reflects the many ideas that emerged during the Summit and the further work and discussions we have had since with leaders in the field. While this report does not include a transcript nor attribute particular ideas to individuals, it does attempt to share ideas and perspectives that were presented at the Summit. We intended to create a paper that would be most useful for a diverse audience, including evaluators, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers.
