INTRODUCTION
Learning is necessary for each and every person because it assist in enhancing skills as
well as knowledge which result in accomplishing desired goals of life. In educational institutions
it is the responsibility of teachers to give proper information to the students as per their
specialism. Education is right of particular person as well as important for an individual because
it helps in giving superior knowledge and capability which results in building up confidence
level and help in taking correct future decision (Bellotti and et. al., 2013). This assignment will
help in developing as well as developing abilities and capabilities for presenting actual views or
opinions. Teaching plan and other practices are implemented as per the requirement of business
management student.
TASK 1
1.1 Application of pedagogical principles
Pedagogy is the approach related to interaction within teachers, student as well as the
learning environment and the learning task. There are several principles of good pedagogical
some of these are as follows :- Motivation – it is the important factor which is required while teaching student, in
business management there are several such practices which cannot be performed if
teacher is not motivating (Bellotti and et. al., 2013). Thus, motivation is the important
pedagogical principle required while teaching. Criticism – There is requirement of criticisms within teacher and student at the time of
teaching because several things happened in the classroom which is not liked by educator
or student.
 Direction of activity – Teacher is the one who give direction to the student related to
particular activity. Because without proper guidance things cannot be performed in
effective manner as per the requirement. Thus, it is important for teacher to give direction
to their learners.
1

1.2 Effectiveness of use of creative and innovative approaches
Creativity and innovation is important is the area of teaching because through these
things can become more easy to learn for student. Educator can bring several new techniques or
innovation in the existing so that it look attractive and easy to be learnt by learner.
Teaching creativity is not the only needed factor for expert, but it is a great deal of taking
initiative to bring something most creative in the classrooms as well as Creative innovator
creates an proper learning environment. Creative teacher must be capable to reconstruct the
accessible data and generate particular solution to the problem of student. Whereas, Innovative
culture related to the optimum cooperation within the teacher and students.
Behaviour :- It is a respond of a person or an individual or group on a action,
environment, person or stimulus. In simple term it can be said that, behaviour directly reflect
individual character and how he/she will do things.
By implementing respective theory i.e., William Glasser in the life of child several
changes take place in behaviour. Children started taking responsibilities of things belong to
him/her as well as take major or important decision of life. This is important in life of particular
person and should be taken by own.
TASK 2
2.1 Initial and diagnostic assessments to agree learners’ individual goals and learning preferences
For looking at these document for initial and diagnostic assessment, teacher have to
understand the major roles as well as responsibilities of diagnostic assessment in the process of
maintain suitability of particular person. Initial assessment is that tool or technique that is utilise
by learners to prior knowledge as well as allow the tutor who have ability to use these
information or data in the process of selection. The assessment must have to carry out chosen
qualification and examine the need of success in learners life. Strength and weakness of an
individual play an necessary role in the enhancement of skill as well as knowledge by the
utilisation of equality and diversity for making sure that each and every individual has equal
chance for getting success (Bellotti and et. al., 2013). Moreover, Initial and diagnostic appraisal
method get down from first application and also do non-stop assessment in effective or
appropriate manner. SMART goals as well as targets are managed in the life of learners so they
2

can accomplish these in given time period which render required objectives for the learners.
These same goals and objectives can be accomplished by the individual which can evolve and
advancement their own place.
2.2 Devise a scheme of work taking
There are some major points which must be taken into account by the teacher while
teaching their students. Some of them are as follows :- Need of learner – Each and every individual have several types of requirement as well
as desires and they want to complete them which is required proper teaching and learning
programmes. With the help of this, every learner can develop their skills as well as
knowledge for better performance and accomplishing desired goals. The delivery model – Their are many model which can be utilise by the teacher for
delivering required education by each and every learner.
 Internal and external requirement – External requirement is related to several types of
characteristic like procedures, staffing, group size, resourcing, curriculum model
timetabling and so on. All such activities related to teaching as well as learning must be
assign with appropriate sequence of staff members (Meiklejohn and et. al., 2012).
Whereas, external have different feature such as knowledge and skills content, awarding
the organisation or vocational standards, assessment schedule, moderation,
standardisation needs and so on. Educational institutions must be rewarded for their
better contribution of providing effective education to students.
2.3 Design teaching and learning plans
There are several type of teaching as well as learning plans or programmes that is
required to be utilise by teachers while teaching student so the individuals need can be fullfil. It
is necessary to improve or develop skills as well as abilities with the help of training process for
enhancing productivity of desirable aspects. Such efficacious teaching practices will make
individual capable for fulfilling their objectives and achieving growth in future.
 Individual needs or goals – Each and every learner have some requirement which must
be fulfilled by their educator only. Thus, teacher must have to implement such practices
which can be fulfil need of particular and person and result in accomplishing goals of
their life.
3

 Curriculum needs - People are able to build their curriculum vitae more effective or
impressive to get any kind of reputed designation or position. Various kind of training
and learning procedures build a person to acquire about practical skills, opportunities,
wider abilities and knowledge content (Baldwin, 2016). It facilitates to build the
personality more enough to get valuable position in career.
2.4 Opportunities for learners and others to provide feedback to inform inclusive practice
Feedbacks is important because it give chance to know about goodness as well as danger
of teaching programmes and also help professor in improving these if required in future. This
method is facilitative to determine opportunities and threats of several types of learning
procedures. Explanation of these area as follows :-
Informal learner feedback -Sometimes, it is ascertained that an leaner want to ask some
question or may be have various problems related to particular topic. But in these situation
officially the professor does not provide such chance to learners (Saunders, 2012). In that case,
students try to ask about their queries by using informal way due to their curiousness about it.
Planned learner feedback - Many of educational institutions have specific criteria for
conducting several formal sessions and course reviews. This will assist learner in giving their
feedbacks for solving their problem or issues.
2.5 Explain how own practice in planning inclusive teaching and learning has taken account of
theories, principles and models of learning, communication and assessment
Planning is a most effective approach that assist in determine guidelines of individual's
learning for the knowledge enhancement practices.
For the effective classroom development practices, I am striving to apply the numerous
approaches as plan, deliver, assess and evaluate. For me it is required to implements appropriate
theory and models that assist me in building positive relationship with my learner. I am basically
implement relationship facilitator model that defined as a process model for developing link
between student and tutor. I also manage my behaviour toward students that assist them applied
independent learning practices.
In addition I am manage high quality facilities for my students that promotes a healthy
and safe learning environment. In this, learners are treated as individually in a positive way that
suits their learning styles, motivation and aspirations.
4

TASK 3
3.1 Analyse theories of behaviour management
At the learning place, teacher needs to analyse different methods and theories that assist
them in denoting how to learn and how we should teach. There are some key theories determines
below that influenced the discipline of an education process as -
Fredrick Jones – This theory basically denotes non-adversarial method that help teacher
to develop self control practices in students (Schmeck, 2013). These kind of activities are based
on employing body language, effective use of incentive system and so on. In these kind of
approaches, teachers helps students to control themselves for further development practices.
William Glasser – This theory basically helps to students in determining awareness
about their responsibility for making their own decision towards them. These kind of approaches
influence student's learning practices that can maximise their knowledge towards positive
thoughts. These kind of practices assist in enchaining self confidence in individuals towards
classroom management approaches.
Mary Parker Follett – This theory says that teachers could be viewed from the perspective
of particular children as well as group of behaviour. So they will behave properly and learn
things as teaching them.
3.2 Establish and sustain a safe, inclusive learning environment
At the learning, it is the responsibility of educator to take place in order to sustain a safe,
inclusive and learning environment for the students. On the basis of these kind of activities they
can easily builds long term relationship with them as well as can maximising their knowledge
criteria for future development practices. There are numerous tactic determines that assist in
developing safe an inclusive environments as -
 Differentiating – For a teacher it is required to understand that each and every individual
learn differently. Therefore they needs to analyse student's learning criteria and
approaches for providing them effective education easily. They needs to implement,
scaffolding, reinforcement, books, magazine and video learning that imp0act directly on
sub-conscious memory of students (Schmeck, 2013).
 Healthy grading – In an educations process, it is required for teacher to implement
positive grading practices that assist in motivating students towards career development
5

practices. These gradings can be depend on talking attitude, communication practices,
lateness and task attempt abilities.
3.3 Explain how own practice in creating and maintaining a safe, inclusive teaching and learning
environment
In learning practices safe and secure environment take a specific place that assist in
engaging students towards educational practices. I am always implement these kind of
approaches because it directly impacts the effectiveness of learning modules by gaining student's
curiosity and knowledge criteria as well. Safe environment basically implemented by me through
appropriate and ethical policies or practices that determine health and safety, legal meeting and
so on. On the basis of these kind of practices I am provides desired and appropriate working as
well as learning environments to my students for the betterment of their career growth. Inclusive
practices are the education methodology that assist in negotiating negative behaviour of
individual to make them move forward toward positive and optimistic attitude. These kind of
activities takes place while educator providing appropriate response to students and engaging
them in challenging tasks (Kirkwood and Price, 2013). Appreciation and reward takes a specific
place in these kind of learning that assist in motivating students towards their career goals and
future objectives.
TASK 4
4.1 Design resources that:
Actively promote equality and value diversity
These are them most specific approaches that assist in managing and promoting equality
and diversity in education practices. The practices of these aspects can be -
 Actively engage with all learners which is a important aspect for learners that take part in
all education and training activities at educational workplace. In this procedure, all the
educator and learners provides their own contribution in effective manner.
Meet the identified needs of specific learners
 Utilisation of various learning styles is a effective approach in which different learning
styles are implemented by tutor for developing as well as improving students requirement
effectively. This style is majorly applied to enchaining learning as well as developing
skills of individuals (Simonson, Smaldino and Zvacek, 2014).
6

 Usage of e-learning practices are basically implements to increasing knowledge of
learners through electronic learning programmes for continuous learning. On the basis of
these kind of practices individual can easily analyse use of advance technology in the
terms of education (Kilpatrick, 2014).
4.2 Demonstrate flexibility and adaptability in the use of inclusive teaching and learning
approaches
For the flexibility and adaptability it is required to implementing new and effective ideas
as-
Engaging different learning styles- For a learner, it is required to having effective
approaches that assist in determining different learning approaches that assist them in managing
knowledge criteria on desired level.
Adaptable to meet different learner needs – For tutor it is required to analyse their
students needs and requirement for the grabbing information. Through this they can easily
implement new ideas and techniques of teaching (Breen, 2014)..
Inclusiveness of resources
 Stimulating and engaging – For teacher, it is required to engaging students properly by
managing new ideas in learning practices.
 Use of internet and intranet – Internet having a drastic impact upon students that assist
them in providing new module of learning by implementing new approaches.
4.3 Demonstrate ways to promote equality and value diversity in own teaching
Equality and value diversity is important for every for teaching to improve learner
performance at workplace (Kukulska-Hulme, 2012). In this context, there are some factors that
may help in promoting equality and diversity:
 Effectively engage with all the leaders: It is one of the important way to promote equality
at workplace. In this, educator is responsible for connecting as well as engaging their
leaders so that they can easily improve their abilities and capabilities as well.
 Managing peer activities: Individuals needs to provide better training and development
programs to manage as well as organise all the activities of leaders with the aim of
attaining set goals and objectives (DeMonte, 2013). For this they also responsible for
maintaining better training and development programs so that they can easily enhance
their skills and knowledge.
7

 Sharing positive relation and perception: It is important for individual to effectively share
their views and opinion with their learners and team members as well. With the
assistance of this they can easily improve their skills and knowledge in most effective
manner.
4.4 Communicate with learners, learning professionals and others to meet individual learning
needs and encourage progression
It is important for every educator to communicate with learners and professional to meet
their learning needs. As it directly contribute in improving their progress. For attaining the same
they use some effective ways are as follows:
Creating interest: Meeting and identifying learners needs is effective for teacher to
encourage them to improve their subject skills. This is possible by supporting them and creating
their interest in learning.
Planning class room activities: It is important for a teacher to familiar with the personal
needs of their learner in which they set their day to day activities (Brown, Bull and Pendlebury,
2013). This will help them in making them able to improve their skills and knowledge to meet
learning needs.
4.5 Explain how own delivery of inclusive teaching and learning has taken account of theories,
principles and models of learning and communication
As a teacher, it is important for me to deliver teaching ad learning to their learners. In
this, there are some Principe of leaning like modelling, from observing others , and many more.
All these are appropriate for me to provide better learning activities to the learners in which they
easily enhance their skills and knowledge (O'Neil and Perez, 2013). Behavioural, cognitive,
developmental, social cognitive and constructivist perspectives are the important principle of
learning which provide better support to leader to improve their performance.
In addition of this there are some model of communication which used by team within
the class room for delivering better and inclusive learning to the learners. Shannon and Weaver,
David Berlo, Schramm, Barnlund, Psychology of communication and Constructionist model. All
these are more effective for leader to enhance their skills.
8

TASK 5
5.1 Design assessments that meet the individual needs of learners
It is important for professional to design an effective assessment which help in meeting
individual needs of learners. Assessment can be formal for example holistic in which teacher
needs to use naturally occurring evidence related with the subject areas. By this they can easily
measure skills and knowledge level of the learners (Moore, 2013). This will help in meeting the
individual needs in most effective manner. Assessment is also includes the performance criteria
through which professional can easily provide better leaning programmes. Along with this, it can
be informal also which includes opportunities for self and peer assessment. It may contribute in
determining the link between learning and assessment. With the assistance of this, learner can
easily meet their needs and also improve their performance as well.
5.2 Demonstrate flexibility and adaptability in using types and methods of assessment to meet
individual learning needs and assessment requirements
Assessment is consider as an important aspect which help individual to improve their
skills and knowledge related with specific areas. In this context there are three type of
assessment through which tutor can easily provide learning programs to learners:
Assessment for learning (Formative assessment): It is ongoing assessment which allow
the tutor of evaluate as well as monitor day to day activities of learners with the aim of
providing them better learning (Rose and Martin, 2012). With the use of this assessment, teacher
can easily provide specific feedback on the basis of their performance.
Assessment of learning (Summative assessment): It is related with the snapshot in which
learners and their classmates share their views and opinion with the purpose of understanding
each other (Mayes and Moon, 2013). By this, they can easily complete their task and activities.
Mainly, it provide information towards the students performance and achievement. That directly
effect on the learning activities of the students.
Assessment as learning: It is also an effective type of assessment which develop as well
as support learners meta cognitive skills. Mainly it play vital role in supporting learning to
become lifelong learners. In this, they engage in peer and self-assessment through which they
make valid information for their new learning. This will directly improve the overall
performance and skills as well.
9

5.3 Use of assessment data
Assessment data is play important role in evaluating the student learning with specific
level and area as well. With the use of this, tutor can easily evaluate as well as monitor the
achievement. For example, tracking against criteria, recorded skills, observation records and self
statementing as well. By this teacher can easily improve the understand the actual progress of
the students (Knight, 2012). On the other side, planning and subsequent session is also an
effective way in which tutor adapted session plan, set alternative approaches, extension
activities and many more to attain positive outcomes.
5.4 Communicate assessment information to other professionals with an interest in learner
achievement
There are various assessment information for learning achievement which are described
as under: Student requirement and needs – It is necessary for them is to develop and design
learning program that will assist in acquiring additional data and information in effective
manner. Inform quality assurance – This is required for learner is to examine and inform the
quality assurance in order to determine real and actual needs and requirement in proper
way (Simonson, Smaldino and Zvacek, 2014).
Different professional learning are described as follows: Teams and peer members – In this section, members are adopting appropriate learning
programmes in order to analyse desired goals and targets that are required for learners.
 Team leader liable for learning programmes – For a person, manager is responsible for
all their activities and functions while conducting different training and development
sessions in effective manner.
5.5 Explain how own assessment practice has taken account of theories, models and principles of
assessment
There are various assessment practices which are taken into account of different models,
theories and principles that are mentioned as under:
Holistic and integrated – It is required for learner is to being holistic and integrated
where they can easily perform their role regarding learning new skills and knowledge in better
manner (Kirkwood and Price, 2013).
10

Use to promote learning – This is another assessment practice in which learner need to
boost and promote their learning skills and abilities effectively. It is the best method which help
learner in enhancing their knowledge and information in better manner.
TASK 6
6.1 Analyse ways in which minimum core elements can be demonstrated in planning, delivering
and assessing inclusive teaching and learning
At the time of learn some lesson plan, I deliver that it is essential to endeavour which
includes all the minimum core elements in better manner. For instance, I found that usage of
numeracy has been quite which is hard one for fit in the lesson plan specially with the subject
that can manage and maintain in better manner (Schmeck, 2013). There are various selection of
ways which I need to included minimum core in my personal lesson planning that are described
as follows:
 Literacy is used for hand outs and it is set for written home work where learner can easily
gain required knowledge and information about specific subject.
 This is initial techniques and method where a learner required to develop effective
discussion, planning, present group task or work, making unique projects and maintain all
the necessary data in better manner. This will assist in enhancing learner skill and
knowledge for dealing with such type such core elements.
 With the help of accurate language, it is clearly demonstrate that a person work for
developing discussion, group presentation in order to adopt correct language.
 In this, the method or tool for evaluating and measuring the right facts and figures for
recording learners details or information in proper way.
6.2 Apply minimum core elements in planning, delivering and assessing inclusive teaching and
learning
There are different core elements in delivering, assessing and many other learning factors
are described as under:
 Presentation – This is the core element that can assist in enhancing an individual ability
and skills for assessing their learning and teaching skills in better manner (Kirkwood and
Price, 2014). In this, as a leaner I need to show my inner strength and ability by
presenting their skill in front of audience.
11

 Research report – It is required for learner is to develop and make appropriate research
for analysing and interpreting all essential facts and figures in effective manner. As a
learner, it is very simple and easy for them is to evaluate and understand their required
skills and knowledge at the time of gaining learning. I need to research report which are
help me in delivery, assessing and planning inclusive teaching and learning skills
effectively.
TASK 7
7.1 Use theories and models of reflection to evaluate the effectiveness of own practice in
planning, delivering and assessing
In this, there are different models, theories of reflection which I need to evaluate the
advantages of own practices in the context of planning, delivering and assessing teaching. The
learning cycle is the common concept in which they evaluate how people learn from their
experience. It is used to explore and discover the learning criteria that will helpful in gaining
additional learning (Havnes, Smith, Dysthe and Ludvigsen, 2012). In this, learner can use Swot
analysis which help them in examining an individual strength, weakness, opportunities and
threats that can create issue for them. With the help of this model, a learner can identify major
areas where they need to make proper improvement and modification in their behaviour, attitude
or perception.
Along with this, for determine the effectiveness, learner required to evaluate their training
session where they gain additional knowledge and information in order to enhance their ability.
In addition to this, tutor are taken their formal self appraisal which assist in analysing each
student or learner current abilities or capabilities on the basis of performance. Also they are taken
external reviews and feedbacks from other individual who gain in order to increasing
information and knowledge.
7.2 Analyse ways to improve own practice in planning, delivering and assessing inclusive
teaching and learning
There are different ways through which learner can improve their own practices in proper
manner that are described as under:
12

 For asking question with student that how they perform their functions in different areas
and how to enhance their performance level within an organisation. They are given them
opportunities for learn and gain knowledge regarding planning and assessing.
 They can give presentation in front of large number of audience through they will
increasing confidence and building good communication skills. (Havnes, Smith, Dysthe
and Ludvigsen, 2012).
 Lastly, learner can attend seminars and conferences which help them in developing
accurate listening skill in proper manner so they can listen their junior person issues or
problems effectively.
CONCLUSION
As per the above report it has been summarised that learning is a most important aspect in
a students life that assist them in managing information for a long run practices. In this process
teacher provide their own contribution by enchaining interpersonal as well as learning skills of
their students with the help of new and effective ideas. In this process new ideas takes a
important places that determine numerous modules of learning for the betterment of student's
career.
