Teachers' job is to lift the spirit of each student to give them a positive vision. This is an educator's mission, whose success will be measured on this as a basic.

Mr. Ross
Academic Principal
Al Ansar Int. School,Sharjah

Due to the current covid situation, there are many challanges in assessing the students during the distance learning. Few of the main challenges identified in remote assessment were academic dishonesty, infrastructure, coverage of learning outcomes, and commitment of students to submit assessments per instructions. So to minimize academic dishonesty during the assessment, preparing different questions to each student was found to be the best approach but still it is challanging. Online presentation / oral assessment was also found to be good option to control academic integrity violations. Combining various assessment methods, for instance report submission with online presentation, helps to minimize academic dishonesty since the examiner would have a chance to confirm whether the submitted work is the work of the student or not.

Using the Google form to conduct the assessment and using the option of shuffling the questions / options is also a good idea to control the assessment procedure.

Components of curriculum

Cambridge Professional Development Qualifications (PDQs) provide a strong framework to support the effective continuing professional development of the teachers.
They help teachers to:
1 - engage critically with relevant concepts, principles, theories and best practices from around the world
2 - apply new ideas and approaches in reflective practice in their own teaching and learning context
3 - formatively evaluate experiences to plan further development
4 - transform the quality of teaching and school leadership to improve the outcomes of students.

Our greatest effort is to be sure there is a teacher in every classroom physically and mentally involved with their learners, who tries that every student, every day, learns, grows and feels like a real human being in a comfortable environment.
