Educational Methods and Theories

Some potential disadvantages of portfolio assessment include subjectivity in evaluation, time-consuming nature of reviewing multiple artifacts, and inconsistency in terms of organization and presentation among students.

Community resources used in teaching can include guest speakers, field trips, local experts, libraries, museums, and community organizations. These resources help students connect learning to real-life experiences and provide a deeper understanding of the subject matter. By utilizing these resources, educators can create engaging and interactive learning opportunities for students.

Fine motor skills involve the small muscles of the body that enable such functions as writing, grasping small objects, and fastening clothing. Fine motor skills involve strength,fine motor control, and dexterity.

The curriculum must be in a form that can be communicated to those associated with the learning institution, should be open to critique, and should be able to be readily transformed into practice. The curriculum exists at 3 levels: what is planned for the students, what is delivered to the students and what the students experience

A manager's strengths include leadership skills, decision-making abilities, and effective communication. Weaknesses may include difficulty delegating tasks, poor conflict resolution skills, or ineffective time management.

An interactive model curriculum is an educational approach that emphasizes hands-on learning activities, collaboration, and engagement between students and the content being taught. It typically involves using technology and interactive tools to enhance the learning experience and promote active participation from students. This model allows for personalized learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills to be developed in a more dynamic and engaging way.

The Battelle Developmental Inventory is typically administered every 6-12 months to monitor a child's development progress. The Developmental Assessment Screening Inventory II can be administered as needed for screening or monitoring purposes, but it is generally recommended to reevaluate every 6-12 months for ongoing assessment.

Ethnic variations in the development of gross motor skills can be influenced by a combination of genetic factors, cultural practices, socio-economic status, access to quality healthcare, and environmental influences. These factors can impact opportunities for physical activity, nutrition, and overall wellbeing, affecting the acquisition and progression of gross motor skills in different ethnic groups.

Using different assessment methods allows for a more well-rounded evaluation of student learning. Different methods can capture different aspects of student performance and provide a more comprehensive picture of their understanding and abilities. It also helps to cater to diverse learning styles and preferences, promoting fairness and accuracy in assessment.

1. Delivery. Providing a variety of tones (rather than a drone) helps people listen. If you are using powerpoint, don't have every word that you are saying on the screen--just the highlights.

2. Eye contact. Powerpoint may keep you on track, but be sure to keep your eyes on the audience and connect.

3. Wait. If you ask a question, wait 20 seconds for an answer. If the person is long winded, wait until they take a breath and then jump right back in. No one really wants to hear from the audience.

4. Move around. Not necessarily pacing, but give them something different to look at.

5. Watch your mannerisms--they can be distracting.

To ensure the content validity of a test, you need to ensure that you are covering all of the factors that the test seeks to analyze. If your test does not factor in the importance of a particular facet of the issue, your test will lack content validity.

Blended learning was not invented by one specific person. It has evolved over time as educators integrated technology into their teaching methods, combining traditional in-person instruction with online learning resources.

Film Review

How a teenage life in the hood does affect his life in adulthood?

The film adulthood is a drama about life on the streets; it was released in the month of June, it is presented to the audience of people age 15- 20 also it complies to both gender and all sort of race, also it teaches teens in gangs; sells drugs, prostitutes, and also kids who try to impress people by doing things like smoking buying illegal drugs. Etc. This film would be really enjoyable and interesting because it teaches people how life is on the streets and when to act like an adult and do responsible things.

The director of the film is Noel Clarke which starts in the film as Sam. Also Adam Deacon starts in the film as jay which also brings more conflict in the films because they had a conflict him and Sam.

Adulthood is a film about a young man Sam who thought he was a 'bad man and killed Trevor at the end of kidulthood and went jail for six months and also flash back was shown in films of when he was in prison where he saw Trevor's uncle and he got beaten up their and tortured, the first day back the people who he has hurt wants revenge for all he had done to them.

There is of Corse many great scenes in the film but my personal best is when noel Clarke who plays Sam and Adam Deacon who play Jay had a fight which was due to Sam killing Trevor jays best friend at the end of kidulthood. Jay wanted to get revenge and kill Sam for the sorrow he had caused hi. The director really used good techniques like close up to their face which really shows the face expression also the soundtrack that was used made you really think that, is he going to die, what's going to happen this was good it caused lots of suspense. Also Sam showed jay scares that he got from prison that he done to himself so he could kill himslef cause of the pain and sorrow he got in prison. Out of the quotes jay aid to Sam was that "am gonna take your life Sam, like you took trevs like you took mine". This really makes you think that what he means that he took his.

This film is one in a million and it would be advisable for you to go and see it because there's lot of morals in it and also educates you about the advantages and disadvantages of the streets, if you like film like kidulthood, bullet boy and films like that you will love adulthood .

Disadvantages of using the archival method include limited control over the data collected, potential biases in the archival records, difficulties in accessing and interpreting archival materials, and challenges in verifying the accuracy and reliability of the data.

Hundreds and thousands of B.A.'s and M.A.'s are turned be every year out of the universities of our country. They run after petty jobs. But all of them do not even get such low paid services.

As a result, the problem of unemployment daily grows more acute. Besides having these defects, the present system of education is proving harmful in other ways also. It is quite unsuitable for the needs of modern India.

Our country is quite rich in natural resources. But still our people are very poor. We do not know how to make the best use of our natural gifts. We do not have enough young men properly trained to exploit these resources. Only Technical and Vocational Education can give us expert engineers, technicians and mechanics. They are needed in large number in our country. So there is great need of such education.

Large number of educated young men to-day are fit only for office work. This is the fault of their defective education. The increasing number of educated young men every year makes the problem of unemployment very serious. If, during their education period, they are taught to do so many things with their own hands, many of them will not like to enter service. It is necessary, therefore, that young men should be trained in different vocations of their choice. This will enable them to start their own business. They will become independent workers. They will no longer run after petty jobs. The problem of unemployment will be solved.

Untrained workers cannot do their work efficiently. An untrained teacher cannot teach with the same efficiency as a trained teacher does. So is the case with all other workers. We want efficient and skilled workers in all vocations. This can be possible only if they are given vocational and technical training.

This is the age of large scale industries. Large factories are necessary for economic development. We cannot make much progress in the industrial field without a sufficient number of technically trained hands. Without efficient and trained experts we can not compete with other countries. For rapid industrialization of the country, more and more young men must be given technical education. It is the need of the hour. We cannot ignore it.

If we look towards other countries, we find that only those countries are great which are scientifically and technically advanced. Many of the powerful and great countries are not rich in natural resources like our own country, yet they are known throughout the world for their might and progress. Only technical education has placed them in such an honorable position. Our own country can easily surpass them, if we begin to give technical and vocational training to more and more young men. IT is thus clear, that the need of such training in our country is very great. Our progress depends solely upon it.

It is a happy sign that the government is fully alive to this problem. Since independence many technical and vocational institutions have been established throughout the country. There is a net-work of Medical colleges, Engineering institutions, and Agricultural colleges. There are also Industrial Training Institutes for those who have passed only Junior High School or Higher Secondary Examinations.

However, technical education alone cannot solve the problem of unemployment. Family planning and population control are also a must for the purpose.

1. Lower level managers may make decisions without fully understanding the "big picture." While top level managers typically have less detailed information about local operations than the lower level managers, they usually have more information about the company as a whole and should have a better understanding of the company's strategy.
2. In a truly decentralized organization, there may be a lack of coordination among autonomous managers. This problem can be reduced by clearly defining the company's strategy and communicating it effectively throughout the organization.
3. Lower-level managers may have objectives that are different from the objectives of the entire organization. For example, some managers may be more interested in increasing the sizes of their departments than in increasing the profits of the company. To some degree, this problem can be overcome by designing performance evaluation system that motivate managers to make decisions that are in the best interests of the organization.
4. In a strongly decentralized organization, it may be more difficult to effectively spread innovative ideas. Someone in one part of the organization may have a traffic idea that would benefit other parts of the organizations, but without strong central direction the idea may not be shared with, and adopted by other parts of the organization.

Development administration traditionally focuses on implementation of government policies and programs, while development management takes a more holistic approach, incorporating strategic planning, monitoring, evaluation, and stakeholder engagement to achieve sustainable development goals. Development management also emphasizes efficient resource allocation, innovation, and adaptability in responding to changing development challenges.

The Buddhist system of education focused on personal experience and understanding through introspection and meditation, while the Vedic system emphasized memorization, recitation, and rituals. Buddhist education also promoted questioning and challenging of teachings, whereas the Vedic system largely followed traditional texts and practices without much room for questioning.

Irrespective of the catalogue of laudable merits of the use of drama as a teaching methodology, it has areas of weaknesses amongst which are

-Drama method is time consuming. It is evidently clear that it takes dramatists valuale time to rehearse and perfect the roles assigned to them.

- insufficiency of costume to bring drama to its desired level is yet another point of consideration

- the method is very expensive with regards providing costumes needed for the teaching -learning situation

- the fun characterized by the use of role play sometimes make both the facilitator and the learner to deviate from the actual message for which the drama was designed.
