Yes, not only does he or she possess the technical expertise, but they also have the ability to evaluate the following materials submitted by their students, either virtually or in person, for some unique situations, such as using a digital camera to record a play or performing procedural tasks:
1. Print
a collection of drawings, photographs, magazine clippings, and other items arranged in order of importance or importance could be excellent learning evidence. Yes, a kind of motion or mode of verification (student version) where students’ mastered skills could be compared to rubrics.
2. Non-print
means like voice clips, recorded audio, or video of the task or tasks that were given to the learner could be a great way to see how much they know. They not only get the chance to show off their voice and video production and recording abilities, but they can also show off their speaking, acting, and scriptwriting abilities.
3. Digital – output
like a skit video, a process for making something, and the like can be uploaded to YouTube and other web servers. A teacher or someone assigned to do so can also evaluate it at any time.
Yes, there are materials that can be uploaded as audio or video files or stored on a memory stick or disk for quick evaluation. Teachers also have the same experience ensuring that everyone has submitted and can receive the appropriate assessment based on the established rubric prior to the term or quarter, despite the fact that the process of creating those could be both enjoyable and challenging for students.

A conscientious educator is capable of going beyond the classroom, either virtually or physically, and knows how to provide the necessary support, even to the point of challenging students to discover their talents in relation to the skill or skills being developed.
Only a select few individuals comprehend the significance of effective mentoring for improved student and teacher performance: the first for providing the appropriate resources, and the second for providing the necessary boost so that they can continue to discover their strengths and eventually become active learners and users of appropriate information.
For both of them, this kind of endeavor may mark the beginning of more meaningful and enjoyable resource sharing in order to gain wisdom from lessons learned by both parties. As long as both teachers and students are willing and able to put in their best effort toward achieving their objectives, virtual or online classes can result in effective and efficient engagement.
Yes, there is always a need for authentic learning that is evaluated by qualified teachers who understand the impact of providing feedback to eager students who are developing skills toward self-actualization.
That’s it for now. As we work together to become competent enough to provide our students with the skills they need to become free and skilled information users for their own magnificent growth and development, more wisdom will be coming your way. Cheers!
