1. Explain the purpose of the following types of assessment in learning and development • Initial Assessment • Formative Assessment • Summative Assessment Formative Assessment Initial assessment provides the information needed to plan an individual’s learning and improve their chances of learning effectively. Without it, there are only assumptions. It’s always possible to make some predictions about learners from an application form or selection test, but it’s an insecure basis for planning. Learners themselves bring assumptions about learning based on the past, and some of these may get in the way of looking ahead to a new way of learning.
• Use real examples and practical experiences. • Keep activities short. • Encourage active participation in discussion. • Provide more stimuli for learning activities. • Help the pupils to develop skills in accessing information.
The important influence of behaviors on learning can be studied by the behavior that occurs after learning has been initiated or stored. Behavior and learning are codependent on each other. Behavior is observable, and this makes the process of learning more easily observable as well. The two types of behavioral learning have aided in understanding the concepts involved in improved learning through conditioning. These new realizations have been converted into the classrooms to better educate students.
What type of nonverbal communication codes are being used to deliver the messages? What effect does each message have on the other people in the image? What nonverbal communication skills and strategies could be used to communicate effectively in this situation? What cultural barriers are seen in this image? What type of nonverbal communication codes are being used to deliver the messages?
Barriers to Effective Communication Language Barriers. Obviously, communication between people who do not speak the same language is a barrier. Even when communicating in the same language, accents and the terminology used may act as a barrier if it is not fully understood by the receiver. For example, a message that includes a lot of specialist jargon, abbreviations and/or regional expressions will not be understood by the receiver who is not familiar with the terminology used. It is also important to note that body language plays a large role in communication and may become a barrier, depending on a person’s perception.
Different people adjust to different strategies. Most people adjust to more than one strategy. We just need to identify which ones through assessment. How the Awareness of Learning Strategies Influence Teaching and Learning It is important for teachers to understand what a student is going through in their process of learning new information. If you know the learning style of the student, it is easier to convey the message you are trying to convey.
As a teacher, one of the main roles is to motivate your learners to develop their ability and aspiration to learn. Some may read about delivering training and facilitating learning , but in reality a teacher does much more than that. A teaching role is not just about teaching your subject or preparing learners for assessment. The focus of a teaching role relates very much to inspiring learners to change and develop their personal, social and professional skills to the best of their ability. In this respect, the ultimate aim is to enable learners to understand how to take responsibility for their own development.
Language Paper Lisa Draxler PSY/360 February 7, 2011 E.W.Newlin Abstract The primary focus of this paper is language and how it relates to cognition. This paper will define language and lexicon and provide the similarities and differences of each. This paper will evaluate the key features of language, describe the four levels of language structure and processing, and analyze the role of language processing in cognitive psychology. Language Paper Language in itself is a complex concept in itself. Language is defined to be a communication of thoughts and feelings through a system of random signals.
Language is an important part of each person life and is used as one’s everyday as a part of communication between two or more individuals. Humans have the unusual skills to benefit the use of native language are an essential tool to communicate with others, which is the basic part from humans to animals. However, the structural features of human language, in accordance to Chomsky , it is creative nature (by Aaron Stark). Arbitrary can first defined as the context and connection among specific parts within language. Therefore, the characters are believed to be the main characteristic in arbitrary and the sound or fundamental imitate the context.
1:1 Reflective practice is a technique which you stop and think about your actions, carefully think through your decision making and relate it to what you do when in practice. Focus on the areas that could be improved on and evaluate your practice and learn new skills and ideas. For example: thinking about the development of your learning, thinking about your own behaviour, what could have been improved, coming up with an alternative from the evaluation, asking yourself this happened because, it would have been better if and next I will. Doing all of these actions cn help us learn from our mistakes and do better next time. 1:2 The importance of reflective practice is learning from previous experiences and improving from them.
