Identifying non attendance could indicate a problem external to the teaching setting which may benefit from referral to other professionals or could point to students’ dissatisfaction with the teaching style which could be addressed by reassessing the teaching methods used in order to promote more inclusive practice. Assessment on the course forms an ongoing weekly record of how students are grasping lesson plan objectives and provides valuable feedback for both students and myself as their trainer. Monitoring student achievements, skills, abilities and progress through ongoing assessment, tracks their progress with feedback given to confirm that learning objectives have been met. Assessment also enables identification of any special needs that require more attention through setting targets for improvement in order to progress more effectively with the course. Recording special needs allows for assessment of the effectiveness of interventions implemented and gives students a measure of appropriate progress towards
You develop a perception that the fog’s danger becomes a part of the experience of its beauty. Another example of Edward Bullough’s notion of “physical distance” can be seen when discussing the topic of culture in a classroom filled with thought-provoking college students (such as our own). Students feel inspired to discuss the matter and are challenged to reflect on different points of view for its appreciation. “Temporal distance, remoteness from us in a point in time, though often a cause of misconceptions, has been declared to be a factor in our appreciation” (I, 243). This means that in order to fully appreciate the artwork in front of you, you must separate yourself from your current outlook on life.

In order to gain a better understanding of how an individual can attain educational success, one has to examine other social constructs such as class, race and gender. This essay aims to discuss the theory of cultural capital in determining an individual’s chances of obtaining education success by reference to the notions of race, class and gender. Education is a type of socialisation, and institutions such as schools and universities play a key role in the socialisation process. Through socialisation, individuals learn and internalise knowledge, values, norms and other aspects of culture, which would prepare them for their roles in the society (Thirumaran, 2014). However, many individuals possess cultural capital before they even begin their educational journey.
