Reflection 7
We already discuss the topic 7 & 8 with the lecturer in the class. Besides, the lecturer also discuss about assignment two with us in the class. The lecturer teach us how to fill the table in the questions paper of the assignment two. Next, the lecturer also ask us to imagine that we are the teacher based on the major of early childhood subject, how does the assessment help in teaching?
In my opinion, assessment help me teaching through the way that I can do to help the children's. Based on the assessment, I will looking for their strength and weaknesses so that I can help them become more understand about the topic that they did not understand. For example, I will show them the videos to help them understand about something that I want to teach them in the class.
Through the assessment also I can know the performance of my children's in the class. I can compare their mark and see their exam paper. I will fine out the part that the children's always getting wrong to answer the questions. This is important so that I can help them to improve the part that they did not know the most. I will show them images for example so that they can become more interesting to study and be focused during the learning process in the class.
Assessment also can help to find a suitable methods and materials for the teaching and learning process in the class. It is important to find any methods and materials so that I can improve my teaching styles in the class to teach the children's. For example, if before I just use the presentation slides to teach the children's, now I will improve to use presentation slides and videos to teach the children's. I choose videos because the children's will become more interesting with the movement image and have sounds. This situation directly help the children's easy to remember and can learn faster in the teaching and learning process.
I am strongly agreed with your opinions about the importance of assessment. Indeed it is so important for use to use several types of assessment to evaluate our students, or even younger siblings, according to their ability and level of knowledge. For me, the assessment is should be an open-ended materials which the children can use their interest in doing something accordingly to the topic that are already been selected for them.
