Testing; there has to be a base line of evaluation. Without evaluation we may not determine if the student has the understanding of the material needed to move forth. Although some times the testing might need to be more of hands on test verse a written test because of learning styles. Learning style and testing style do carry hand in hand.

By pretesting, the student and instructor can find a base line of knowledge and a starting point for learning. This will also tell the strengths and weaknesses for improvement.

When selecting media for class, one must remember that the learning style of each student differs. i.e. When using power points, make sure that the student can inter act with the presentation presented. By doing this the student will not loose interest on the subject at hand that is being taught.

When testing a student one needs to keep in mind of the comprehension. How well will the student comprehend the questions that one may ask? Do not give a test that is above the student level. Always make sure that the student has a good feeling about themselves after a test is given. This is very important, because this gives reinsurance to the student so they may move forward with pride.
Sometimes I think I am a little unorthodox in the way I assess students. I break rules like reviewing a test after it is given. I use this for a learning tool. I do have strict rules about how the test will be reviewed. If the student can prove a answer that I have marked incorrect I will award the points back to the student.
