PAGE 1 CROP OVER FESTIVAL – BARBADOS

Crop over is a festival which is celebrated in Barbados. It is from June to August. Crop over is a five week summer festival and one of the islands most popular events. Its origins can be traced back to a time when Barbados was the world’s largest producer of sugar. At the end of the sugar season, there was always a huge celebration to mark the end of another successful cane harvest.

    Assessment is the process of measuring the achievement of learners. It is an obvious way of checking that learning has taken place and is a good way of measuring the learner’s knowledge and practical skills that they have learnt. It is important for the assessor to initially establish whether the learner has any specific learning needs so that they can prepare to support the learner in whichever way they feel necessary. Learning and development are closely connected. The learner needs guidance in order to understand what it is they are required to learn, also to check that they are on track and also ways in which they can improve. This is generally where formative assessment comes into play.…

    Diagnostic tests are used to identify the needs of students that may need extra guided instruction by testing specific skills. Standardized tests are a type of diagnostic tests that are used to diagnose individual learning problems or strengths of the students. The most commonly used forms of standardized testing are when they are used to evaluate students’ progress and teachers’ and schools’ effectiveness (Slavin, 2015, p.385,386). Benchmark assessments are another way schools will assess students usually in reading and math. These assessments are used to give schools useful information on students’ progress to benefit them in the future (Slavin, 2015, p.404).…

    6. The role of women in western society has changed drastically over the past three hundred years, and like most paradigm shifts, it happened in bursts. The 1920’s were one such time of great cultural change. Teenagers, as is common, felt the greatest amount of change in this time. For example, smoking and drinking among women became common in this period. What, a few years prior, simply didn’t happen, became a norm among the young. Fashion is another prime example. Young women, no longer forced to maintain somewhat prudish styles of dress, saw the skirt rise from the ankle to the knee. Short hair was also in vogue, the bob being the most popular at the time. Both of these showed a preference for more utilitarian styles, as well as an increase…

    Religion is intimately bound up with the history of Caribbean civilization. The neo-Indians practiced their religions in the region before the arrival of the Europeans with Catholicism and other Eurocentric Christian forms of worship. The Africans, before and after the arrival of the Europeans, also practiced their many religions. The existence and symbolic worship of a deity or deities was common to all religions that impacted the Caribbean region. While the deities, symbols, rites and rituals may vary from one religion to the next, they were always present in the theology practiced by the adherents.…
