In this respect, the ultimate aim is to enable learners to understand how to take responsibility for their own development. Teachers can do this by planning and preparing teaching and learning activities that take account of the needs and well-being of individual learners as well as groups of learners. Some key aspects of a role as a teacher may be: carrying out initial and/or diagnostic assessments; clear communication with your learners, other professionals and stakeholders; promoting appropriate behaviour and respect for others; identifying and meeting individual learners’ needs; being aware of the support mechanisms available; being organised; being reflective, which means learning from successes as well as mistakes. What are my responsibilities as a teacher? As a teacher, my primary responsibility is to ensure that learners are enrolled onto the correct course, in terms of meeting their needs, abilities and aspirations.
Effective teaching strategies that promote student learning will be examined. Various lesson plan designs will be explored, and students will create an original lesson plan. (3 credits) Prerequisite: EDU 301. Required Course of

Understanding the principles & practices of assessment Unit 1 1:1 Explain the function of assessment in learning and development The main function of an assessment is to ascertain if learning has taken place and that the learner has obtained the required knowledge, skills and understanding. Assessment needs to be a constant process which should take place every time you see the learner, either by watching what they are doing, asking questions or carrying out short coaching or training sessions. It should also focus on improving, re-enforcing learning and measuring achievement showing how the learner is developing and areas they need to improve on. Assessment can be formal which is when you use assessments, assignments, tests and workplace observation to assess learning and informal which can be by asking a few questions. When assessing learning it is important to have an understanding of initial assessment, formative assessment and summative assessment.

PTLLS: Roles, responsibilities and relationships in lifelong learning 1.1 Summarise key aspects of legislation, regulatory requirements and codes of practice relating to own role and responsibilities 1.2 Analyse own responsibilities for promoting equality and diversity 1.3 Evaluate own role and responsibilities in lifelong learning 1.4 Review own role and responsibilities in identifying and meeting the needs of learners PTLLS: 1.1 Summarise key aspects of legislation, regulatory requirements and codes of practice relating to own role and responsibilities PTLLS: 1.2 Analyse own responsibilities for promoting equality and diversity Summarise, in 1.1, suggests that a paragraph will be sufficient for describing each key aspect of legislation, regulations and codes of practice. Analyse, in 1.2, means that you should also ‘extract’ aspects of legislation, regulations and codes of practice that focus on equality and diversity issues. PTLLS: 1.3 Evaluate own role and responsibilities in lifelong learning Evaluate in this criterion means that you should be able to explain the ‘value’, or contribution, to society of being a teacher in the lifelong learning sector. PTLLS: 1.4 Review own role and responsibilities in identifying and meeting the needs of learners Before reviewing your role and responsibilities, for 1.4, you will need to be clear about what is meant by ‘the needs of learners’. Once you are clear about
