2.2 The strengths and limitations of a range of assessment methods in relation to the individual learner needs:

The following are the types of information that should be made available to learners and others involved in the assessment process:

The assessor needs to gather information that is personal from the learner in order to adapt and provide special needs that they might have. Also the assessor will need to treat all learners equally, ensuring that equality and diversity issue are met. Once this information has been gained, the assessor can then produce an action plan for the learner which is both realistic and achievable so they are comfortable to achieve the best possible results.

By linking different aspects of learning through holistic assessment you can get a clearer picture of student ability. This will also highlight student’s strengths and weaknesses.

3.3 Explain how to plan an holistic approach to assessment When able to breakdown the components of an environment using evidence seen and heard, which includes the learner, as a matter of habit the assessor is applying Holism. My believe is that many support supplied by service providers have become complacent and disheartened by falling standards because of the bad practice’s employed by the few. Which will, during there period of assessment, by observation and feedback give the learner a better understanding by raising there awareness of the surroundings which contribute

Assessment is a process through which we gauge a learners level and progression, ensuring learning is taking place and the learner is developing their skills and knowledge. Susan Wallace recognises the importance of assessment as more than a means of determining learner achievement but also “as an indicator of the quality of learning.” (2007: 119) discussing the need for ‘ongoing assessment’ to evaluate how receptive learners are to the lessons.

Assessment as learning for students will occur mainly in their interactions with other students. As students listen to what their peers are saying, they will learn new ideas. This engagement and participation will be good learning experiences that the students have throughout this unit. Students can use personal knowledge to construct meaning and monitor what they don’t understand something. Student’s routines reflect their work and I can make judgments about what they have already read. Student will use rubric to assess their journal. The student

The assessment process in a teaching environment is a necessary requirement to enable you to be able to measure a student’s knowledge and understanding. Assessments come in many different forms and use many different methods, each are important in obtaining an outcome to which the tutor can obtain positive outcomes.

Assessment is a tool that begins and ends successful teaching. At the beginning it establishes what is currently known and at the end it establishes what has been learnt as the result of the planned curriculum.

Assessment, is important since the mentor’s first meeting with the learner, as like this he can identify the student’s learning needs, his previous experience and his expectations, but the registered practitioner has to assess the student through whole the learning process thus he can provide feedback to the learner and help to

The practitioner should consider that the assessments that they are using are accessible to all of the children and that they are all able show what they know. Also they need to consider that the adapted materials that they use in all their lessons are individualized to meet both student needs and

The assessment should also be practical and efficient which will be determined on how students understood clearly the goal of the assessment and how are these helpful in their lives

Assessment for many years has been used in a summative manor to quantify student’s abilities to compare students and schools performances. Although necessary to some degree this assessment of learning is using assessment ineffectively as assessment when used properly is a very effective learning tool. Assessment for Learning is defined as “ the process of seeking and interpreting evidence for use by learners and their teachers to decide where learners are the their learning, where they need to go and how best to get there” (Assessment Reform Group, 2002).
