...& Practices of Assessment ------------------------------------------------- Principles and Requirements of Assessment The Functions of Assessment Varieties of Assessment It's been said that in life, timing is everything. As in life, assessments performed at crucial times in the learning process can spell the difference between gathering data to evaluate students and using assessments to enhance learning. Based on timing and purpose, four functions of assessment data are: * Formative Assessment provides diagnostic feedback to students and instructors at short-term intervals (e.g., during a class or on a weekly basis) * Summative assessment provides a description of students' level of attainment upon completion of an activity, module, or course * Evaluative assessment provides instructors with curricular feedback (e.g., the value of a field trip or oral presentation technique) * Educative assessment Integrated within learning activities themselves, educative assessment builds student (and faculty) insight and understandings about their own learning and teaching. In short, assessment IS a form of learning. At its most useful, educative assessment (sometimes termed active assessment) is an episode in the learning process; part of reflection and autobiographical understanding of student progress. Diagnostic and Formative Assessment Diagnostic Pre-Assessments Diagnostic assessments (also known as pre-assessments) provide instructors...

I teach English Home Language to Grades Ten, Eleven and Twelve. The school is relatively well – resourced and provides the necessary infrastructure to facilitate learning. Classrooms are equipped with the sufficient number of desks and chairs. All learners and educators are issued with the appropriate resources such as textbooks and study guides to achieve the outcomes of the curriculum as determined by the Department of Basic Education. Periods are 40 minutes long. A total of four hours per cycle is dedicated to the learning of the home language. The majority of learners are from a lower to medium economic background. The school’s language of teaching and learning is English. Consequently, all learners are registered as English Home Language learners. In reality and for most learners, English is their second or even third language. Many of the learners had their actual mother – tongue as medium of instruction at a primary education level. After two years of secondary education ( Grades 8 and 9 ) this aspect of...

...Unit 13: Unit code: QCF Level 3: Credit value: Recruitment and Selection in Business A/502/5434 BTEC National 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose The aim of this unit is to introduce learners to recruitment and the importance of ensuring that the best people are selected to work in organisations. Learners will study selection and recruitment techniques and will set up, and take part in, a selection interview. Unit introduction Recruiting the right people is the key to the success of many organisations. These organisations ensure that the processes and procedures involved in recruitment and selection meet their needs and are legal. In this unit, learners will develop an understanding of the impact of the regulatory framework on the recruitment process. Potential applicants may decide to apply for a post based on the quality of information that they receive. Details of the post will usually be the first communication they have with the organisation. It is important that the organisation makes a good first impression on potential applicants to ensure that they attract sufficient applicants of the right calibre. Learners will develop their knowledge of the types of documentation used in an interview process. A structured and planned selection procedure is crucial to the success of the selection process. The impression a business makes may determine an applicant’s decision to accept an offer of appointment. Staff conducting the interview will also be forming their impressions...
