The relationships between communicative ability and learning process are developed. Through practical exercises, each student demonstrates effective communicative ability and identifies significant relationships between communicative skills and the teaching-learning process. Each student selects the teaching methods appropriate for various learning objectives, organizes materials, prepares useful written plans, and teaches to reach the stated objective. Students use and see demonstrated instructional television, audiovisual aids, and other materials available in the learning center. Each student identifies school and lesson objectives that can be better achieved through the use of available media technology and applies these techniques in the classroom.
Students learn basic principles and techniques of educational evaluation and their application.
Each student receives actual experience in applying performance rating, test construction and analysis, and grading methods. The students construct, use, and analyze appropriate evaluation instruments and make valid educational decisions based on the results. Students learn the ISD process and the domains of learning. Each student plans and delivers instruction using instructional objectives developed from the cognitive and affective domains.
