Santa Ana, CA, April 5, 2005 - MaxKnowledge and Career College Association today announced the availability of a new online training course for career college instructors.
Student Learning & Assessment in Career Education is facilitated by MaxKnowledge faculty, Susan Polick. "This course will help you to identify the different learning styles of your students so that you can adjust your instruction to better accommodate them," said Dr. Gary Meers, MaxKnowledge Director of Education.
"Good teachers regularly monitor the effectiveness of their instruction by assessing their students' learning. This course will examine several aspects of assessment including how to create good tests, how to ask effective questions and how to get your students to actively participate in their learning by asking questions themselves," said Susan Polick.
