The modern curriculum is based upon the learner as the
subject of teaching. We as teachers are set to follow a
number of rules in order to provide a good education.
Teaching is done in a various manner. Nowadays we use
alternative methods more often.
You will seldom assist a lesson where modern methods and
techniques are not used. Such complementary methods as
portfolio, project, report, interview have become actual in
teachers’ conversation.
Thus, as teachers use a variety of teaching methods, the way
they evaluate is still the same. Many teachers make up tests
based on their intuition more than on the requests of the
modern curriculum.
Therefore, this seminar is intended to develop the skills of
developing a test based on the modern curriculum.
