, BPT1501 Assignment 4: Teaching and learning strategies
QUESTION 1
1. As an educator, what type of assessment would you use to identify a learner
with learning difficulties? Explain the importance of this type of assessment.
- Type of assessment: Screening assessment (with the understanding that a
subsequent diagnostic assessment would follow if concerns are flagged).
- Why this is important:
- It allows early identification of learners who may be at risk for learning difficulties,
so supports can begin promptly.
- It provides initial data to guide targeted interventions and differentiation in the
classroom.
- It helps monitor progress over time and determine whether additional, more in-
depth evaluation is needed.
- It informs decisions about accommodations and supports, facilitating inclusive
instruction.
2. What strategies would you use to differentiate instructions accordingly for
the 3 learners that are mentioned in Mr Jones' classroom? Why would you use
those strategies, and how would those strategies assist the above-mentioned
learners in Mr Jones' classroom? (Strategies (3 marks), explanation (why and
how) 12 marks)
