Playing games in class with the students is a fun way to learn a language. As part of the ProELT Programme, teachers are required to participate in weekly individual presentations for a minimum of 30 minutes. The teachers design, create and demonstrate a language learning activity to the class including:
a. Level of the game
b. Objective of the game
c. Materials needed
d. Procedure
e. Feedback form
After three months of presentation, all activities were compiled into one document to encourage teachers to use these activities with their students in class.
Assessment has for a long time been recognized as a powerful driver of learning, and therefore something that teachers could leverage on to ensure students achieve desired objectives. This belief that assessment drives learning focused on the external value of learning has helped to sustain simplistic conceptions of learning and assessment. In an outcome based system focused on the external value of learning what has become important is the performance on the test rather than the learning that facilitates doing well on a test. However, there are alternative views of learning and along with these views a commitment to re-defining of the role of assessment in learning: Assessment is the process of gathering and discussing information from multiple and diverse sources in order to develop a deep understanding of what students know, understand and can do with their knowledge as a result of their educational experiences; the process culminates when assessment results are used to improve subsequent learning.

RE: Public Records Act Request #16-0336
Dear Ms. Parker,
On 4/8/2016, you submitted a series of Public Records Act request for OC Animal Care records. Please be advised that due to your numerous requests, it will require a significant amount of time for records to be identified, collected and reviewed. The Custodian of Records Unit and OC Animal Care will proceed with all due diligence and respond to your series of requests on a rolling basis. This response is related to the above-referenced request. In your request, you requested records on Animal ID A1386314. At this time, we are prepared to produce responsive records. The attached records are the only responsive records OC Animal Care possesses with regard to this particular request. The information redacted in the original responsive records is exempt from release
under the Public Records Act. That information has been redacted pursuant to California Government Code Sections 6254(c) and (k) and 6255, Health and Safety Code 121690(h) and the California Constitution Article 1, Section 1. Additionally, we note that the redacted information is personal contact information. If personal contact information were made available, citizens would be reluctant to provide this
information to OC Animal Care which could impede their ability to protect public safety and prevent the spread of rabies. The decision to redact this information was made by the undersigned.
Sincerely,
David Kim

Imagine you are climbing the Himalayas. The weather is extremely cold. With the heavy backpack you are struggling to climb the peak of the mountain. You go through a lot of obstacles but you never give up. Finally you are at the peak of the mountain. You have achieved your dream which others can’t imagine. Now you are a celebrity and everyone is proud of you!
You and your friends went for a luxurious cruise. After a few days of sailing, the cruise stopped at the most beautiful island you have ever seen.You and your friends are relaxing on a rubber raft and enjoying the sea breeze and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Suddenly all of you fell asleep. After a few hours of being drifted in the rubber raft, you and your friends are stranded on a beach. You and your friends start to wander around the place and you see many buildings.

You’re in the dungeon with all the hideous furniture which has been rotten through for some time and all the spider webs are sticking all over you. As you are walking through the passage towards the next room, there is a promise that you can find a precious treasure. Your precious treasure is a preposterous creature.
