During this course, we focus on understanding the whole child through observation and assessment techniques for teachers. It delves into alternative methods of evaluating student success beyond traditional exams. The course covers various assessment types, including continuous assessment, observations, formative assessment, self-reflection, real-world success, student feedback/conferences, and parent-teacher conferences.
Teachers learn how to effectively observe their students in natural working states and assess not only their academic skills but also their essential/soft skills and values. The course emphasizes the importance of self-reflection and provides tools for students to reflect on their own learning experiences. It also highlights the significance of collaborative parent-teacher conferences to assess the whole child’s development.
By completing this course, teachers gain valuable techniques and strategies to enhance their observation and assessment practices, ultimately fostering a holistic understanding of their students’ progress and supporting their overall development.
