DIPLOMA FOR TEACHERS AND TRAINERS
Sample Assignments
INTRODUCTION
We have created the following four sample assignments to give you a better idea about:
•
•
•
the kind of evidence which is presented in Diploma assignments the way the assignment templates are completed the relationship of the assessment framework (eg the sequence of steps and prompts) to the practice and experience of the candidate, through the complete teaching cycle.
The candidate ‘Robert Richardson’ is a fictional candidate. His context and testimony is a reflection of the experiences of many real candidates. Robert is a subject teacher of students on a pre-university course.
Robert has completed the assignment steps and the reflective report using the assignment template provided by CIE. Every candidate must use the assignment template. It is an easy to use Word document. Candidates need to be reasonably comfortable with word processing.
Many candidates for the Diploma are using English or another language which is not their first language. We do not assess use of language in this Diploma - as long as the examiners can understand the sense of what you are saying to us, then this is the essence for our assessment.
Many different teachers and trainers enter for the Diploma, teaching all ages and ability levels in all sorts of contexts. The Diploma assignments enables each candidate to report on his/her experience in his/her own teaching context.
The Diploma is equally accessible to all teachers and trainers – ie it provides a ‘level playing field’ for assessment of teaching practice and performance.
