Assessment Tools
How do we assess our students? The most common tools used in most schools is a written test. Here we are only able to test a students understanding of the lessons taught. How do we assess behavior in the classroom and outside the classroom? How do we assess the student's learning skills such as reading, comprehension, writing, thinking and speaking. What about the students ability to express one's self. His ability to deduces and his findings. His ability to express his feelings and thoughts. His ability to identify problems and solve them. These are the most important part of education. It is from here that a child will be able to survive and achieve his goal in life. This is where we teachers play our part and role. We have the difficult task of molding a child to become a useful person in his future. The success and failure of these kids are in our hands as their educator and counselor. We are not only responsible in making sure that they achieve good grades academically. Hi
