Hi Rita- Thanks for your post to the forum. You are using a very appropriate mix of assessment types. Bet wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
Hi Robert - When students self assess they also seem to take a more active role in their learning. Best wishes! Susan
Hi Petulah - Thanks for your post to the forum. Having students relate concepts that they are learning to their own personal experiences is always very effective. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
You are very welcome, Romeo! (I liked your idea of using them in the future - maybe also as a tutor?) Susan
Hi Talina - You are obviously a very empathetic teacher! You might want to try preparing the shy student to answer a question in the full classroom. Take some time to personally discuss some small bit of a topic with the student. Be sure that they absoulutely understand the concept. Perhaps try to tie it to some personal experience that the student may have had. Then, ask the student a question that you know they will be able to answer. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
Hi Gina- Thanks for your post to the forum. In addition, learning to effectively self-assess will be valuable in the future as students will often be asked to do this in their careers. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
Hi Gina- thanks for your post to the forum. Artwork, especially if it has been created by your students, is a wonderful touch! Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
Hi Kay - Thanks for your post to the forum. Allowing your students to be involved in test development is a wonderful idea. As you say - it makes them feel more a part of their own learning. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
Hi Sharon - Thanks for your post to the forum. Re-evaluating tests is a great practice! Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
Hi Michelle- Thanks for your post to the forum. As you stated, much depends on what we are teaching, but I also like to use a mix of written and hands on assessments whenever possible and approriate. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career. Susan
