It’s all about a magic word : Assessment

                In this reflection journal, I wrote about the last activities of PETA. Actually the topic on that day was all about assessment. In the opening Miss Ine gave us some pieces of blank paper and then she asked us to draw our emoticon on that paper after she told us a magic word. The magic word was “test”. Knowing that word made me confuse and I drew a sad emoticon to represented my emotion trough that word.

                In the next activity, she divided us into some groups and asked us to discuss about some questions that had been provided by her. It’s again all about assessment, but there were some questions that asked about the assessment of PETA subject. Some of us gave comments about it. Actually the assessments of PETA subject were quite effective for us especially to improve our writing skills, but in my opinion these assessments were too much for us.
                As a teacher candidate I realize that whatever the subjects or materials that we teach to our students someday, we have to finish it all by assessment. It means that we have to prepare ourselves to design a good assessment which is not only assess our students capability but also consider their  needs and wants.
