Case Studies: Sample Teaching, Learning and Assessment Sequences

St Teresa Secondary School

St Teresa Secondary School is a CMI girls' school located in Ho Man Tin. The three English teachers, Miss Janus Chan, Miss Joan Chan and Miss Mary Thorp (a NET), wanted to improve their students’ extensive reading and oral presentations. They planned, implemented and evaluated, in the pre-assessment activities and the assessment tasks collaboratively in order to cater for the needs and interests of three different classes. Students were allowed to choose their own assessment tasks from a number of assessment activities. They could also choose to do their presentations in pairs or individually.

A range of warm-up activities were conducted and some specific oral presentation skills were taught. Two of the classes also conducted self-assessment and / or peer-assessment of a practice presentation where students had the opportunities to video-tape and evaluate their own presentations and those of their friends prior to the assessment. Evaluation forms were provided to students for reference.
