8.5 DISSEMINATION
Committing to adopt useful testing practices to improve teaching and learning
Given the testing practices you have learned from your interview of the teachers, write
down which practices you will adopt.
AS FUTURE TEACHERS to improve your teaching:

As a future teacher, the practices I will adopt to improve my teaching are:

encouraging students who need attention, assisting them in correcting their mistakes, and

discussing the reasons for their incompetence. I'll figure out the reasons myself, and finding

FIELD STUDY 1  

the solutions will help the students memorize the concept as well as develop a sense of self-

confidence in them, motivating them to tackle even more complex problems with

enthusiasm. When a teacher assists students in identifying the root cause of their errors, it

helps them change their thought process and prevents them from making further errors.

FOR YOUR FUTURE LEARNERS to improve their leaning

We all understand that not every child will benefit equally from the instruction

and curriculum, and that some might need a little extra assistance or a different

learning strategy. Making everything pertinent to each individual student is all that is

required of us in order to accomplish the goals of the curriculum and uphold our duty

as educators. I should learn strategies that will make my students more engaged

while also being aware of their interests because teaching from memory makes a

dreamer's soul soar higher. Real-world examples, applying fresh strategies, and

incorporating evaluation tools into the exercises to identify the activities' virtues and

shortcomings. You can educate people more effectively by making an effort to meet

their needs.
