The Assessment Of Teaching Practice : What Criteria Should We Choose?, C. P. Hodgson

Australian Journal of Teacher Education

For a number of years now, the practical element of pre-service teacher education has been taken in primary and secondary schools under the guidance of members of the school staff, and tutors from the college or university department of education. The tutor may also be called upon to give an assessment of the student's ability to teach. Despite various attempts to break away from assessments by grading, the fact remains that the majority of student-teachers practise are assessed this way. The recurrent problem, then, is on what criteria should the assessment be based?

Visual English: A Method Of Language Education For The Deaf, Adapted For The Esl Classroom, Dennis Sayers

MA TESOL Collection

This report details an adaptation for the ESL classroom of the Fitzergerald Key, a method of language education for the deaf which utilizes question words to organize vocabulary development and to visualize the regularities of word order in English.
