Before assigning a new type of assignment, a teacher must tell her students

Options

A. about her expectation from students in terms of learning from doing the assignment
B. about the requisite previous experience students must possess for doing this assignment
C. that the forthcoming assessment will be/will not be based on this assignment
D. about the weighting of this assignment in their final result

Answer

A

Explanation

Assignment refers to a piece of work allocated to students as a part of the course of study. Before assigning a new type of assignment, the teacher must tell her students about her expectations from students in terms of learning from working on the assignment.

It will motivate students to take personal responsibility and enhance learning by making them work effectively to meet the teacher's realistic expectations.

Discussing the forthcoming assessment’s bases doesn't help in learning
Discussion about weightage in the final exam will be termed as biasing, also, students won’t work efficiently on them.
Discussion about requisite previous knowledge may help a few students but can break the confidence of the students lacking it and they may not work efficiently on it with interest.
