Module 4, Activity 4

Previously we looked at assessment methods now in this assignment we looked at some assessment standards and which methods would be the best for gathering enough evidence. At first I did not really understand what was my objective in this activity however i got around to it and I really enjoyed this activity; maybe I didnt do enough but the that which I did it was quite useful. After this activity I must recheck my objectives and see if I am really using the write methods to assess. I read some of the members of the group's contribution and I learned a bit from that as well. very insightful activity I must say.

Module 4, activity 3

a quite  interesting and informative activity, the reading gave me  great insight on how children can be different and they dont always learn at the same level. i learned that we should cater for diversity with planning and assessment because one basic test cannot fairly assess all students at the same time, this can only happen if all students were exactly the same and learned in exactly the same ways.. planing and assessing works together in order to properly cater for our students with different learning abilities.

Module 4 activity 2

This activity was insightful, I looked at the comments from the other members of the group and realise the large amount of things I don't assess and probably should. We are so accustomed to assessing exercises and such items but things such as, participation, ability, willingness to learn, how students attempt problem solving and so forth are things that the teacher must also consider. I did gather a lot of information for my personal benefit and will use them in my teaching and learning in the future.

Module 4 Assignment 1

This assignment gave me soo much trouble, I had some technical difficulties and really had to rush to get this assignment done, i am not even sure if i did everything the way i should have but nevertheless it has been submitted and I hope for the best.  I learned a lot and was reminded of some of the things i have learned some years ago about assessment so this assignment really brought me back on track.

Module 4, activity 1

This activity introduced me to the module and i must say that it promises to be an interesting one, the survey I gave to my students and I did one also and my  number is -3,, i fell between the -13 to 4 bracket which states that my assessment strategies are very simiar from day to day. it feels like im way too traditional so i have to start thinking about my strategies and how to implement new ones. i look forward to good things in this module that would improve my teaching and learning.
