Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 1:
Areas where learning is required are identified.
The most suitable situation/environment for learning is constructed.
Learning within diverse education contexts is facilitated.
Working with colleagues and the broader community in an independent way is demonstrated.
Change in the broader education context and society is contributed to and acted on.
Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 2:
Principles and procedures relevant to FET Mathematics Literacy Teaching are demonstrated.
Inclusivity and barriers to learning, and principles and practices of effective teaching and learning are demonstrated.
Teaching strategies and assessment approaches are applied.
Application of ICT skills to FET Mathematics Literacy Teaching is demonstrated.
Associated Assessment Criteria for Exit Level Outcome 3:
Own subject competence is transformed into conceptual learning experiences.
Professional practice based on an integrated knowledge base is reflected on.
Acting with integrity by maintaining the highest level of professional work ethics is demonstrated.
Integrated Assessment:
Applied competence will be demonstrated through a variety of formative assessment methods. Summative assessment will be examinations. Various assessment activities that are constructively aligned to the programme and module outcomes and teaching and learning activities will seek to integrate theory and practice. Assessment will be in line with the University’s Assessment Policy assessment.
Assessment is seen as central to the teaching and learning process, providing both formative and summative assessment opportunities as well as requiring an element of holistic, integrated assessment in line with the overall purpose of the qualification. Integrated assessment gives an opportunity to the students to demonstrate their achievement holistically across the exit-level outcomes of the programme.
Each module has a specific assessment strategy that complies with the institutional rules and policies regarding assessment and examination. The teachers’ competence in the modules will be assessed through assignments and tests as well as examinations, or examination equivalent tasks. The type of assessment will however depend on the nature of the module and/or the lecturers involved in the module. Continuous assessment activities in the AdvCert (FET Mathematics Literacy Teaching) will include tests, assignments, projects, lesson presentations, posters, presentations; critique of lessons; group assignments, portfolios and practical work.
Assessment of experiential learning (if applicable):
Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) is integrated in the teaching modules and includes opportunities for learning from practice and learning in practice. It is expected that the students will be able to carry out activities in their classrooms and reflect critically on their own practice. Practical assessment activities, assignments and a reflective journal forms part of all the modules with the aim to develop the students’ sense of agency as teachers.
