Since signing of Washington accord by many countries the accreditation of the programs offered by higher educational institution is becoming mandatory. The accreditation process requires lot of documentation either in hardcopy or in digital format. Entire curriculum design cycle is a regular process for improvement in the Higher education but with a great effort. This takes lot of time and effort at the level of faculty which can be put to more effective utilization in research and teaching learning process.
Long back we had extraordinary teachers who were teaching with brilliant ideas, and they were never trained with teaching learning theory in higher education. However, schoolteachers were undergoing training with pedagogies theories.
The concept is good at the level of school education and development of all domains of Bloom's taxonomy for a student.
What is the view of expert in this group with regard to this development in higher education.
The measurement of teaching performance of learners can be reliably and validly evaluated (Mohajan, 2017). The fact that learners' evaluations of teaching are accessible and reliable indicators of teacher effectiveness suggests that they value teaching-on-teaching accordingly. This suggests that learners are the most reliable method to evaluate the extent to which teaching is informative, productive, and meaningful (Hattie & Ze). Teachings from most textbooks incline to yield passive acceptance of mathematics in the abstract and a slight connection being made by students between what they learn and everyday life experience e.g. pronunciations of fractions as outlined in the intermediate phase mathematics (DBE, 2011). The culture of the mathematics classroom is that the learner's role and activities hinge mainly on the interpretation of the mathematics syllabus by the teacher. Teachers with a blended conceptual understanding of mathematics are inclined to organize their classrooms as well as learning activities that inspire learners to take part and work together with the abstract features of mathematics (Malatjie & Machaba, 2019). Moreover, the gravity of the mathematics taught relates highly with the gravity of the mathematical knowledge of teachers with the active participation of learners.
Well the assessment is done to find out whether learning has taken place. There are several ways to find out learning. However, as Eric Mazur has said " assessment is a silent killer of learning" that is if we do not do proper assessment then students will Orient themselves for grades and not for learning. Students invariably have preferences for marks and degree and therefore the proper assessment practices becomes important.
