Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences In Crystal (2003) the statement "English Rules" is said to present a scenario wherein the English language spreads continuously and becomes universal. This is a real possibility in the next century, as the technological and socio-economic developments are improving the quality of life and are enhancing the way we live and learn.

The following is my own experience, but every ALT's (assistant language teacher) experience on the JET Programme is vastly different.

Mark Crocker Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas Although evaluation and testing are considered to be a 'necessary evil' by some teachers and students, it is quite absurd to call them so. Evaluation and testing should never be seen as 'evil', although they are certainly 'necessary' within a properly functioning educational system. It can be argued that no serious study is possible without evaluation and testing as they are surely the best way of judging the capabilities and progress of a student, and a serious motivation for reaching new goals. Distinctions Between Evaluation and Testing The Purpose of Evaluation and Testing The Importance of Planning and Instructions Common Types of Tests The Outcomes of Testing and Evaluation Are you ready to teach English abroad?

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Twenty years ago as an elementary school principal in a large inner-city school district, the staff and I took great pride in creating what we considered to be an exemplary high-technology school. We believed that technology could serve as an excellent tool for children to develop critical thinking and deductive reasoning skills, deeper conceptual understanding, and the ability to communicate their understanding to others.

Of the many new initiatives, we started at this elementary school was a "Writing to Read" lab in K-1, a full-time...  [Read more]
