Part 1 Rick Hebert Introduction to Teaching Cases * Teaching cases are real life examples of possible problems faced by teachers and school staffs. Written in narrative form, they are used to connect theory to practice. * Teaching cases enable teachers to virtually live a particular experience. They are then able to critically think about possible responses and actions. Building a bank of “what if” scenarios is a valuable tool in building a solid teaching philosophy.
• Assessment activity - to determine this, the method could be assessorled like completing questioning or student-led like gathering evidence of competence. • Assessment discussion and feedback - an explanation to my students, a breakdown of their achievements and feedback. • Reviewing their progress - an overview, update and amend if necessary, until my students have full understand of the lesson. During this process, progress is recorded throughout all aspects of the assessment cycle. 1 UNIT 012 Principles of assessment in lifelong learning Furthermore the assessment could be formal (with constraints and validation of knowledge) or informal (any time by oral questions to know how much learning is taking place) depending on area being assessed.
Compare and contrast the reading assignments for this module with the above discussions and summarize the difficulty of categorizing the definitions for, and the challenges of, working with students with EBD. Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required. You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin. Refer to the directions in the Student Success Center.
One of the key responsibilities I feel for a teacher is to provide information, wisdom. In order to share their knowledge and understanding of a subject or topic a teacher needs to have a deep understanding of the topic that they are teaching. However alongside this a teacher should not claim to know it all, and be willing to learn from their students. ‘Knowledge may be seen as a level of awareness, consciousness or familiarity gained by experience, learning or thinking.’ (Jarvis 1987). It is important that the teacher appreciate any input from their students, whether the answer is correct or not.
a) Quick Credit Framework b) Quality Course Framework c) Qualifications and Credit Framework 2. How is the QCF assessed? a) Through exams b) Through assignment briefs, emails and observation c) In a classroom 3. Who will the assessment documentation be signed off by? a) The Learner and the Assessor b) The Doctor c) Another member of staff at your place of work Section 2 - Questions | Multiple-choice questions and answers (Please circle or highlight one answer for each question) 1. “I can use previous work that I have undertaken if the Assessor can see the original documentation.” a) True b) False 2.
It allows the teacher, student, course leader and even governing bodies to look back and reflect of the information they require. It is vital that the teacher retains records on the subject they are going to teach. This documentation should include the syllabus, scheme of work, lesson plans, handouts and activities for the learner. Holding records of this type would allow another colleague to cover your session if for any reason you were unable to
As a teaching assistant I have to ensure that the appropriate resources are available, also with working with SEN students as appropriate, I need to ensure that there is differential work available as all work set in lessons is usually to a generic standard. I would achieve this by prior discussion with the teacher that will be delivering the lesson. It is my job to know which students need supporting in different areas of the work, for example numeracy or literacy support. I can achieve this by using an in house computer system to research each individual student I would be working with. I would need to know if I will be working on a 1:1 basis or with a group so I can plan accordingly.
Unit one in this class first involved the class picking values we thought were important to make a caring learning environment. As we shared our reasons for picking the values on a discussion board, the class was involved in cooperative learning. In other words, we helped others evaluate their own values by providing input and suggestions. In this way, I believe this section in particular of Unit one and the discussion boards in general addressed our continuing professional development: TPE 13. Another aspect of Unit one was identifying and categorizing our intelligences.
The use of journals assisted them tracking their thoughts which led to their behaviors in the classroom. The teachers realized pre and post thoughts were different. Cognitive coaching includes skills that are necessary for our future leaders. When teachers can learn from each other the impact on the student’s is priceless. The best way to learn is to teach.
Effective Assessment Practices Trisha Robinson HSN/552 Assessment and Evaluation of Learning June 2, 2014 Susan Dolinar An important part of teaching and learning is the assessment process. To help students and educators understand where they are headed, where they have been and where they are right now is having a good assessment practice. There is no one assessment practice that can give sufficient information to learning and teaching that help plan. The use of different assessment types as part of the instruction will result in helpful information about a learners understanding and progress. Teachers can use the data to help guide in their practice and partner with the learner to reflect on their learning and set goals for the future.
