Today we started a new module: Innovative pedagogical methods and assessment tools. It was a very interesting and attractive topic. I was very impressed with this module. The lecture excited me because I learned a lot of new information about different skills and how I can apply these methods and tools in my future academic career. I'm very optimistic about this module because it contains new tools and information that will expand my knowledge as a lecturer. The lecture started smoothly, and every student got the chance to introduce themselves and their academic careers. We discussed the material and topics in a small group, and everyone got a chance to express their opinion. I learned a lot of new information from the discussion with my colleagues and the lecturer. By the end of the lecture, I was very optimistic about the entire topic of this module and even the remaining days of this module.

The broad principles, techniques, and leadership strategies applied during classroom education are referred to as teaching methods.
Activities are the many ways in which teaching methods are put into practice. Teaching methods are the more general strategies utilized to assist students in achieving learning outcomes. Students benefit from teaching methods in ways that improve the course content and learn how to use the information in specific situations. The selection of teaching method relies on different factors which include your educational notion, the students in your class, the subjects, and the commission statement of your institution. There are several forms of teaching that fall into two general categories. These include student-centered and teacher-centered methods. Here are some commonly used teaching methods that are well discussed in the class: lectures, discussion construction of summaries by students, problem-based learning, flipped classroom, inquire based learning, small group instruction, demonstration and cooperative learning.
The first theme is about teaching methods that are very impressive, and applicable in a scientific academic career.

The current presentation attempted to look into how student instruction, practices, and knowledge of the teaching strategy affect their actual teaching. In this theme, the students were unable to use the teaching strategies in which they were knowledgeable and effective.

We were eight subgroups and each group got a chance to select a novel teaching method. Every subgroup could present a novel teaching method that was fantastic. These presentations were very applicable with great outcomes. I really get very useful information and knowledge during the entire presentation.
I have learned novel presenting methods that I could apply with my students in my future academic career. As a lecturer, these presentations were very impressive and gave me creative thinking about different teaching methods in the future. We presented an excellent teaching method which was the construction of summaries by students. Our presentation contained a practical example of how we could apply this method practically. Every student in a class gets a chance to practice this method. This method could be applied in almost all areas of education

Assessments that have undergone pedagogical transformation have changed in structure and to better performance in teaching and learning strategies. We have discussed a few types of pedagogical assessment.
Formative assessment: Throughout the learning process, formative assessment emphasizes providing students with constant feedback and motivation.
Summative assessment: It is used at the end of the course to evaluate the students’ outcomes.
Confirmative assessment: Confirmative assessment is frequently used to monitor of students' continued development and comprehension during a learning period.
Diagnostic assessment: A series of written questions that test a learner's current understanding of or opinions on a subject or issue covered in the course (with multiple choice or short answer options).
Interim/ Benchmark assessment: To evaluate the student’s performance within a specific time interval (every 6-8 weeks).
A student's knowledge, skills, abilities, or other pertinent features can be evaluated and measured using assessment methods. Assessment methods are used to evaluate learning outcomes, performance, and progress, they are utilized in a variety of educational and research settings. If a student is learning new so it will fall into three different categories (knowledge, skills and performance). We can evaluate the students learning by using knowledge, skills and attitude assessments.

The quality of a given activity, project, or performance is assessed and evaluated using a rubric, which is a grading tool. In education, rubrics are frequently used, especially for grading assignments, projects, and tests.
Rubrics benefit both the evaluator and the person being evaluated. Additionally, they can improve learning by giving a clear knowledge of what is expected of them and how they might do better. The rubric can be used for clear communications, objective assessment, structural planning, self-assessment, feedback and improvement.
In education, rubrics are frequently used, especially for grading assignments, projects, and tests. Analytic rubrics and holistic rubrics are the most common types of rubrics assessment grading evaluation.

We were divided into seven subgroups and each group got 15 min to present their topic. These presentations were conducive and gave me a new idea about the construction of rubrics in an academic way.
I have learned the construction of rubrics by using Google Classroom which was very applicable and gave me a new idea in academic creativity. Here were listed the topics for each subgroup presentation.
PBL rubric
Lab experiment rubric
Project based learning rubric
Case study rubric
Graduation project rubric
Field trip rubric
Mind mapping rubric

Theme 3 ( Learning Environments and Learning Outcomes )

# data[].attributes.body
An environment that promotes creativity, critical thinking, cooperation, and active learning is referred to as an innovative learning environment. The learning environment includes the physical environment around the students in the classroom, their role and their feeling of involvement in the class.
The trust between the instructor and students is an important part of the learning environment in a class. Active listening to the students with honesty and respect will attempt them to self-confident. It's very important to answer the students’ questions in their emails. The instructor must always try to push and support the students so that they feel involved in the class. Encouraging active learning and building the bridge between theory and practice empowers students and connects them to their education. To improve the learning experience, it goes beyond the typical educational setting and combines modern technology, adaptable rooms, and innovative teaching techniques.
These are some characteristics of highly effective learning environments (diversity, clear learning goals, active learning, collaboration and cooperation, positive learning atmosphere, use of technology, critical thinking and problem-solving).

Learning outcomes are the particular knowledge, skills, abilities, or attitudes that students are anticipated to pick up or exhibit as a result of participating in a learning experience or educational program. They are often created before the start of lessons or classes and act as an outline for creating syllabuses, creating assessments, and assessing the success of the learning experience. Depending on the level of information sought, learning outcomes may be general or particular.
Learning outcomes should be precise, quantitative, and easy to grasp. They offer a framework for planning instruction, evaluating student development, and reviewing a learning program's efficacy.
Learning outcomes should be Precise and visible that apply to the learning objectives and required knowledge or skills. Focusing on the essential skills or competencies that students should understand, being simple and clear within the limits of the available and consistent with the learning plan or curriculum. Learning outcomes encourage active participation and excitement for learning through engagement and motivation that are expressed effectively to students, teachers, and other learning process participants.
