Personal Assessment System (PAS)

How PAS 1 works?

PAS 1 helps educators to connect their learning to what they teach and to incorporate new concepts into practice. There are three possibilities for classroom practice and learning task design:

Matching teaching style and learning task to individual learners' preferred style.
Providing a range of input styles and learning tasks so that learners will sometimes get a task in their preferred style, sometimes in a style that they must adapt to meet.
Helping learners to move from one less successful style to another by teaching strategies and thinking skills.

Teachers can vary the strategies they use to compliment a greater variety of learning styles.

Students can use what they know about their own learning style to guide the way they study.
