Describe how in the transfer of training that good program design requires consideration of identical elements, stimulus generalization, and cognitive theories. Explain each element separately). A. Transfer of training is more likely to occur when the trainees works on tasks during training (e.g., knowledge, equipment, of processes) that are very similar, if not identical, to the work environment (near transfer).
1.3 Explain the characteristics of assessment for learning 1.4 Explain the importance and benefits of assessment for learning 1.5 Explain how assessment for learning can contribute to planning for future learning carried out by: a) the teacher b) the learners c) the learning support practitioner A description from the Assessment Reform Group “Assessment for Learning is the process of seeking and interpreting evidence for use by learners and their teachers to decide where the learners are in their learning, where they need to go and how best to get there” (2002) Characteristics of Assessment for Learning Assessment for learning is part of the teaching and learning process. It is essential for achieving a quality and productive teaching and learning experience. Providing the students with their WALT’s – We are learning today and WILF’s – What I’m looking for….. is a strategy that allows teachers to share the learning goals with students. Sharing learning goals with pupils will enable the student to get involved in their progress. By explaining to students what the learning objectives are provides an aim.
