[Kerala University English Teacher Educator’s Forum - KUETEF]
The members arrived at the following consensus regarding curriculum transaction during the eighth meeting:
* Questions for Diagnostic Test should preferably be Multiple Choice type
* For the Diagnostic Test, instead of Paragraph Writing, there should be five questions to test Writing ability.
* There should be a minimum of five questions each to test the following five areas in the Diagnostic Test:
1. Vocabulary
2. Spelling
3. Grammar
4. Writing (Questions to ability to check 1. ability to communicate 2. Choice of
vocabulary 3. Punctuation)
5.Comprehension
* Blue Print for Achievement test should be retained though the SCERT now discourages its use.
* It is necessary to familiarize novice teacher trainees with the concept of Blue Print of a question paper. But its old format as a three-dimensional chart should be modified to include Mental Processes instead of Objectives related to Blooms taxonomy.
* The Blue Print format prepared during the workshop held in August 2005 and was later supplied by SCERT should be the format that teacher educators should make use of.
