Constructive Alignment

This study was conducted for the purpose of developing an inventory which assess the implementation of constructive alignment in the teaching and learning system at the Teacher Education Institute (TEI). In this literature analysis, several concepts related to learning outcomes, teaching activities and assessment were discussed. This literature analysis also described in detail the concept of constructive alignment based on few theories and models. Besides, it was also supported by previous studies, assignments and assessments, syllabus, number of hours of student learning, factors that influenced the implementation of constructive alignment, assessment concepts, reliability, the validity and theory of measurement used as a guide and reference in the study. The development of the inventory was carried out in accordance with a basic procedure that involved 11 steps and it was divided into 3 stages, namely the actual stage of inventory development, validation and actual study. During the development stage of the inventory, the researcher divided it into 4 steps: conducting literature review, interviewing expert panels, conducting meta-analysis and producing items. Meanwhile, during the inventory validation stage, the researcher divided it into 5 steps: expert panel judgment, item review, pilot study, data analysis (reliability and validity) and final step of item review and final formatting. Then, at the actual study stage, 2 steps have been identified by conducting research on selected TEIs and analysing the data. This inventory will be used to build a profile of knowledge and practice of constructive alignment among lecturers of Teacher Education Institutes as well as a source of reference in strengthening the assessment system and teaching activities at the TEI in order to maintain the MQA Malaysian accreditation standards that require the assessment system to be based on learning outcomes (Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA), 2010). In addition, it is also a source of information for TEI in building the inventory to enhance the level of implementation of constructive alignment. Thus, it will help TEI in grasping the inspiration of the first shift of Malaysia Education Blueprint or PPPM in producing holistic, entrepreneur and balanced graduates.

It is well known and widely accepted that the integration of research and teaching in a problem-based setting helps to foster deep learning among students. In this paper, we describe how a patent of a rotary diesel engine, that had failed to work in practice, was used to link undergraduate research and teaching activities by orchestrating two design courses around this patent. Learning outcomes, course goals, content as well as assignments and projects were defined based on constructive alignment. Students’ performance was assessed using so-called assessment rubrics based on Bloom’s taxonomy, which were specifically developed for both courses. After introducing the educational framework for this approach to enhancing student learning, we explain how both courses were designed and delivered in order to meet the higher level educational outcomes envisaged. The paper closes with an overview of both our experiences and those of our students.

Improve Student Learning

 In this current age of highly competitive global environment, teachers are under tremendous pressure to assess student learning in the most effective manner. Two tools that teachers commonly utilize to assess students in their classes are formative and summative assessment. In formative assessment, teachers gather data in order to improve student learning and in summative assessment they use the data to assess students’ learning at the end of a specific course of study. The scores on both types of assessment should meet the minimum standards of both reliability and validity. In this article we highlight the differences between the two forms of assessment, discuss the theories pertaining to summative and formative assessment, identify how educators at tertiary level in Bangladesh commonly utilize the two types of assessment and disclose opinions of teachers regarding whether the current assessment system is appropriate or need any further improvements. Findings from the study indicate that most teachers have an incomplete and unharmonious understanding about assessment often failing to clearly distinguish between formative and summative assessments.

Purpose Education for Sustainability in Higher Education (ESHE) sits within and across disciplinary settings that share the need for a framework that provides a basis for pedagogy, assessment and learning outcomes (Kalsoom, 2019). ESHE strives to create transformative learning spaces that help students gain the knowledge and skills they need to understand and contribute to shaping a world based on communities living within the limits of earth’s resources. This paper aims to offer a novel solution to the challenge of teaching students from different disciplines struggling with the complexity of sustainability. Design/methodology/approach The paper explores the development of an interdisciplinary subject designed for undergraduate students from four faculties. It presents a case study of pedagogy that moves away from three pillars/concentric circles approaches towards practices based in systems thinking and interactive transformative learning. It describes the iterative process of developing and implementing an infographic: the “Sustainability Wheel of Fortune” (Wheel), to support constructive alignment of content, assessment tasks and learning outcomes. Findings The Wheel provides a holistic, interconnected and dynamic focus for framing content and teaching. The pedagogy aligns with sustainability competencies, builds in flexibility in response to changing times and student experiences and provides teachers and students with a common framework for interrogating the possibilities for sustainable futures. Originality/value The Wheel is a novel learning tool for contemporary sustainability education. It captures key elements of approaches to and concepts about sustainability, visually reinforces the idea of a holistic interconnected approach and provides a framework that supports the constructive pedagogy of an interdisciplinary sustainability subject.

Assessment Tasks

Assessment practices need to change in mathematics classrooms that adopt the curriculum standards recommended by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). An assessment system that focuses on broad learning outcomes, uses tasks that are aligned with instructional practices, involves students actively in the process, and informs teachers' instructional and curricular decisions is recommended. Such an assessment process requires teachers to identify important mathematical ideas, along with performance standards that describe what students must do to demonstrate that those ideas have been learned. Open-ended questions, observations, interviews, pre- and post-assessments, self- and peer-assessments are strategies that can be used to gather evidence of students learning. Documentation strategies are needed to help teachers organize and manage assessment data. NCTM has provided six standards for assessment that teachers can use as guidelines to help them evaluate the appropriateness of assessment tasks.

Higher Order Thinking Skill (HOTS) is a demanded strategy to be applied in any teaching activities, including English teaching and learning process. This HOTS application offers attainable learning outcomes to the teachers when conducting teaching activities. Teachers are able to see how far students can learn based on cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspect. However, there were problems which teachers found and challenged them to encounter the problems to keep the implementation of HOTS successful. This research was carried out to figure out teacher’s self-reflection on problems found and to determine decisions how to encounter them. In line to the research purpose, a qualitative research design was applied within interview and questionnaire. Furthermore, based on teacher’s reflection, it was revealed that during learning activities the students acted unmotivated and lack of confidence; they lacked English interest; and HOTs was not applied properly based on its stages. Then, decision making was established in terms of teaching strategies and lesson planning. In conclusion, despite the importance of creating HOTS to invite students to be creative and critical, problems still remained. Thus, self-reflection did assist teacher to analyze and figure out what teaching weaknesses are and imply to the HOTS application to improve teaching and learning process.
