Education is given high priority in modern times. In addition to know-ledge, education is one of the most important themes that show and help the progress and development of the countries today. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is one of the countries that are developing the educational system in its long-term plans.
In a period of economic development, Abu Dhabi has initiated a compre-hensive plan for economic diversification. The education system is involved in this as it is one of the key pillars that will enable the Emirate to reach the stan-dards of excellence it strives for in all fields (Al- Khaili, 2009). Abu Dhabi Edu-cation Council has embarked on a complete transformation of the education system through a 10-year strategic plan from

Andrade &Valtcheva (2009,12) define self-assessment as a process during which students assess their own performance or progress; compare it to clearly stated criteria, objectives, or standards; and revise accordingly. Teacher and parents can help students develop their understanding of learning objectives and successes criteria. The educational benefits of student self-assessment are recognized and its use is increasing gradually (Andrade &Valtcheva2009, 12.) The goals of self-assessment are numerous and the assessment process can affect the whole school organization, teachers and the students. ADEC’s pedagogical approach in the NSM includes a requirement for children to be encouraged to reflect on their learning which is essential for SE. The nature of learning opportunities is meaningful and encourages active involvement (ADEC 2009, …show more content…
Be-havioral and Emotional Rating Scale 2 (BERS-2) is a strength-based approach and it is a norm referenced, standardized test, valid and reliable instrument which measure the behavioral and the emotional strengths of the child(Epstein 1999, 258).Introducing self, parent and teacher evaluation in a school has posi-tive implications and seems to enhance home-school collaboration(Epstein 2000, 250). BERS-2is beneficial in understanding children's behavior and in planning supporting programs for the students (Epstein1999,
Great post and Thank you for sharing your AACN Self-Assessment score. I totally agreed with you “Nurses must be active participants in the design of automated documentation to ensure that information is recorded appropriately and in a format that can be accessed and useful to all healthcare providers” (Hebda & Czar 2013). Nursing has evolved into a world of electronic records. It is no longer only important that your nursing skills be excellent, but your ability to use a computer to document, give medicines, send specimens, check patients’ status, submit orders, and access data. “The tools and technology that nurses need to perform their work efficiently are changing in such a way that informatics competencies play a greater role” (Hebda &
I can relate to your struggle in identifying the differences between the three terms, although being in the health care field my entire professional career. Analyzing the differences can take a while to process as referring to such terms has become systematic. It is fascinating hearing about your organization as I have not been exposed to the mental health sector of healthcare in my career. It is interesting that your organization provides anonymous self-assessment screenings, I assume it is anonymous due to the stigma associated with mental health issues. It seems as though health care is the focus of your organization, by pursuing overall societal health through the use of health services such as the self-assessments and outpatient clinics.
Figure 1 is a summary of the students’ learning throughout the learning segment. I administrated this test as a pre-assessment prior to the lesson one and administered it again after the completion of lesson 3. This test is a compilation of students’ learning and it demonstration how they met the standards and objectives that were set out for them to achieve. The evaluation criteria in which this assessment and all other assessment in the individual lessons did was not altered. Even though the students have different learning needs, the assessment met all of the needs for all learners.
Imagine this: You and your classmates are asked to lift ‘x’ amount of weight, ‘x’ amount of times, or for ‘x’ period of time. During these lifts, you will be analyzed and assessed based off performance. The assessment will begin during or after instructions are given and will continue throughout the semester. Steady build of progress is expected and select milestones must be obtained in order to perform well in the class. After the instructions are given, you and your classmates are to begin performing the required criteria.
Further, the larger United Arab Emirates has over 8 million people, making it favourable for business,
Additionally, the tasks need to be constructive and interlinked and provide a challenge to the students while also acting as a motivation factor. The adopting of effective teaching to match the personal strengths of the students ensures that a student’s learning outcome is achieved Holistic assessment should be encouraged to understand what the learner has captured on a learning
Me, Myself and I (A self-evaluation on my performance in AP Literature) The first day I sat in McGee 's class was at the beginning of junior year. I was so terrified by the immense amount of work facing me that I panicked and dropped the class. Walking into McGee 's again for my senior year was even more intimidating, though I embraced the fear instead of running from it. The first text with that shook my foundations was Plato 's Republic.
1. Describe the skills or attributes you believe are necessary to be an outstanding teacher. Being an outstanding teacher goes beyond acquiring the competence and knowledge to deliver rigorous academic instruction to a diverse group of students. Outstanding teachers possess a multitude of qualities making them unique and unforgettable to the children they serve. I believe that outstanding teachers are passionate, inspired, creative, compassionate, patient and understanding.
Self-Evaluation on Counselling Session (One) Session start with a warmth greeting, by asking client ‘How can I address you?”, to be honest I felt nervous at the beginning of the session, too focus or particular on the name of client, client actually felt uncomfortable. I can just follow the flow and address whatever name client point out and start with small talk will be a good idea such as asking about his experience of travelling to the centre for his counselling session. Thereupon, I briefly explained the length of time of the session, confidentiality and the limitation. I believe that I deliver a clear message to the client.
Education is interconnected with every single strand of the economy, laws, jobs, research… I believe that education is not only one of the most important factors in a development of a country but instead, it has a greater significance than other factors. First and Foremost, Education is the foundation of our society. It gives us the power of knowledge and the power of assisting others. Nelson Mandela once said: “Education is the most powerful weapons which you can use to change the world – The Former
It is generally accepted that testing encourages and gauges students’ learning, although most students would agree that education would be a little bit more enjoyable if they took fewer tests, given that the tests contain a lot of marks at stake (Dunlosky et al., 2013). Hence, the idea of self-testing as a form of practice testing is a reasonable idea. When students do self-testing, they test their memory, what they have learned, what have they revised; anything they can recall from memory. Through this, they can gauge their own performance and where they stand in terms of comprehension and understanding, much like how teachers do when testing students. Hartwig and Dunlosky (2012) believe that “self-testing by recalling the target information boosts performance on subsequent recall and multiple-choice tests of the target information, and it also boosts performance on tests of comprehension” (p. 131).
More and more countries are emerging on the economic as well as the educational level. As Nelson MANDELA said “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world”. Many countries have understood that fact. Mostly African countries start realizing that their economy depend on young, educated young. IN SENEGAL, education began one of the most domain to invest in.
Education will help you to decide what is good and what is bad for you. A person who has good education will be a good citizen and more responsible worker. Without education a person is incomplete. So education makes a man right thinker and a correct decision-maker. This topic is about the education in UAE.
Education is a significant part of everyone’s life and a priority for people. Urban areas have a high quality of education. Cities have modern private and free schools, colleges,
Malcolm X once said “Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepared for it today.” In the western world education plays a vital role in shaping our future; it determines if we will survive or fail in the world we created for ourselves. Our world is constantly changing and it requires a society that is well versed in understanding the problems deriving from cultural differences and tolerance of one another’s beliefs and perceptions. With the power of education we are able to deal with the problems of economic, government, religion and culture differences.
