When the teacher has the knowledge and details about the learner, referrals to specialist support areas can be processed if required. Information about the learner’s personality along with any diagnosed conditions for example, ADHD and Autism should also be picked up at the IA stage.

When it comes to reading whether it is for pleasurable or learning students should understand what they are reading. During my Gen 105 class we discuss how the Sq3r can help students comprehend what they have read. The SQ3R is a technique used to develop reader from passive to active readers.

Feedback from pupils enables the teacher to assess whether the pupils completely understand what they have been learning. Teachers can analyse performance using tests or questioning the pupils after completing an activity.

One of my goals in this class is to explore new ideas, review established thoughts, and approach information technology in a critical, thoughtful manner. Another goal I have set for my self in this class is to refine writing style for more strategic clarity, concision, coherence, cohesion, and emphasis.
