This document discusses various teaching and assessment techniques for evaluating student learning. It provides examples of true/false questions to test principles of teaching and learning. Different types of discussion stoppers that can hinder learning are identified. The document also categorizes different types of student readiness to learn and provides matching and question construction exercises to measure different levels of learning according to Bloom's taxonomy. The goal is to help educators design effective evaluation methods to improve the learning process.
Questionnaires Provide Insights into Teaching and Learning
1. Questionnaires
Health Education
Concept: Learning & teaching principles; Discussion method; Readiness to learn; Teaching evaluation
(questioning method; types of assessment); Objective costruction by Bloom
Test 1: True or False: (Concept: Teaching-Learning Principles). Write TRUE if the statement is correct; and writes
FALSE if the statement is incorrect. Write your answer on the blank provided before the number.
_____1. Facts, concepts and skills are learned in different ways.
_____2. Learners must be provided allowable time for reflection; for learning to be processed and assimilated.
_____3. Effective learning does not always depends on realistic, objective and constructive feedback.
_____4. The students must have a sense of progress in learning; so the teachers must update them.
_____5. Learning should not be related to and use the learner’s experience and knowledge; for they may acquire wrong
practiced and lots of misconception.
_____6. Getting ideas wrong can still be a valuable aid to developing new understanding.
_____7. Learning lies not on learners alone; the responsibility to learn must be a main part of function by the teacher.

learning environment.
_____16. Active, hands-on, concrete experiences are highly effective; specifically in related learning experiences by
nursing students.
_____17. Problem-based learning involves higher order thinking skills such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.

interest.

in inaccurate or random ways,
_____23. A negative climate may impede learning and performance, but a positive climate can energize students’
learning.
