Explain legal issues, policies and procedures relevant to assessment, including those for confidentiality, health, safety and welfare

Haydn (2009 cited in Capel et al 2009 page 329) defines assessment as "all those activities which are undertaken by teachers, and others, to measure the effectiveness of teaching and learning".

Economic development can be defined generally as involving an improvement in economic welfare, measured using a variety of indices, such as the Human Development Index (HDI). A developing country is described as a nation with a lower standard of living, underdeveloped industrial base, and a low HDI relative to other countries. There are several factors which may have the effect of limiting economic development in such countries. Factors such as these include: primary product dependency, the savings gap and political instability.

Economic Development: Growth is associated with structural, social change and change in the important institutions of the economy.

The roles of the assessor may not be strictly that of a teacher but more of a mentor guiding a Learner to there eventual goal of gaining the qualification by giving appropriate feedback.

Hospitals are on continuous mission for quality improvement; utilizing new technology, techniques, and research on what works and what does not, as well as persistently training new personnel and meeting the needs of patients. Still, hospitals are devoted to quality improvement but follow different courses, which support increasing observance to treatment etiquette and improve patient outcomes. Hospitals make the most of different approaches and models of quality improvement, such as the use of Lean, Six Sigma (Johns Hopkins Medicine, 2008/2016), and the PlanDo-Study-Act (Ibach, 2009) models for improvement. Usually quality improvement efforts are a five step process which

To begin the planning, teaching and assessment process, it must start with discovering what children know and understand, this can be done through assessment and, therefore, is where to initiate the cycle according to Webster (2009). However, some practitioners start the cycle by planning for lessons based on the curriculum content of the previous year (Fisher, 2013). The practitioner may then start teaching according to the predicted lack or extended knowledge, and, therefore, confuse and fail to progress their learning stated by Fisher (2013). An example of this would be presuming that the children had completed and felt confident in using halves and quarters, and, therefore, starting an activity on writing fractions or using bigger fractions. Completing an activity like the example would only cause more confusion and could end up being a more difficult task than it had originally begun. Therefore teachers should start with assessment, and plans should remain flexible until the information of all the learners is collected (Fisher, 2013). One way of assessing children is through formative assessment, this is by obtaining information within a teaching unit that is then adjusted for future educational scenarios (Antoniou and James, 2014). Formative assessment can help to identify both weaknesses, strengths and help enhance the student’s motivation (Yan and Cheng, 2015).

The Canadian health care system is often compared to the US system. In 2007 a systematic review concluded that outcomes may be superior in Canada versus the United States. The US system spends the most in the world per capita, and was ranked 37th in the world by the World Health Organization in 2000, while Canada's health system was ranked 30th (Guyatt, 2007).

In this portion of the evaluative assignments, there will be an analysis to assess the role and function of evaluations and processes with the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS). ADHS is a large and complex agency which encompasses many departments, divisions, and offices. As a result, each component and program collects different data and evaluates their capacities differently. Therefore, for this evaluation capacity analysis, the program that will be focused on is, the High Risk Perinatal Program/ Newborn Intensive Care Program (HRPP/NICP) within the Bureau of Women and Children’s Health (BWCH), Office of Children’s Health (OCH). This capacity analysis draws on data collected from previous evaluations, as well as data compiled from conversations with agency staff. With this data, the paper will discuss forms of data collected, the processes used to collect data, key players, reporting procedures, a discussion of how data is used within the agency, and a discussion of previous evaluations undertaken to assess the HRPP/NICP program. The purpose of the overall

The article “What Is Development “was written by Hugo Slim and published by Taylor and Francis. Ltd. on behalf of Oxfam GB .The paper emphasized on the ideal of genuine development and the principles of diversity and originality as essentials element of genuine development.

Development is defined as “the process of change operating over time- the process by which countries and societies advance and become richer’’. The modern 20th century defines development as” the process of change which allows all the basic needs of a region to be met, thereby achieving greater social justice and quality of life and encouraging people to fulfill their potential’’. Todaro defines development as “the process of improving the quality of all human lives through raising people’s living standards, their incomes, consumption levels of food, medical services, education, raising people’s self-esteem through the establishment of social, political and economic systems and institutions that promote dignity and respect and increasing people’s

Development is not a synonym for infrastructure. Yet, these two words are often used in interchangeably. Halifax, a small city in the province of Nova Scotia, Canada is currently taking on the project of building a new convention center to replace the old and derelict convention center. This project has been widely accepted and praised by many local government officials and business people as a tremendous step forward and a driver for the city’s growth. While this project can be defined as new infrastructure, this alone does not justify its denotement as a development. What allows infrastructure to also be defined as development is its ability to create positive change, or put more simply: improvement. Likewise, undevelopment will be

Development is a term that can be used in many different contexts whether it is social, economical, political etc. However generally development refers to an improvement in certain areas:
