          Constructivists view assessment as a process that involves both the instructor and the student. Educators who prefer to use constructivist methods and principles in evaluating student work have several different avenues to choose from that can help enhance the learning experience of students.
         The learner must be allowed to construct their own understanding. The educator will contribute towards the development of the learner's higher cognitive skill.

            Project-based learning is a model which distinguishes from traditional teaching since the focus is put on the learner and his project. Learners have the opportunity to work more autonomously and build their knowledge.
           In effective project-based learning it should have a clarifying goals and objectives.And have much time consuming in making decision involve with the students.It is also important with this is the material to be use is available.And the students should know the technology using.

           Ahmm..I don't understand fully in this chapter. But as I research in the net,this is the definition.By project-based learning, we mean a teaching method in which students acquire new knowledge and skills in the course of designing, planning, and producing some product or performance. By multimedia, we mean the integration of media objects such as text, graphics, video, animation, and sound to represent and convey information. Project-based multimedia learning is a method of teaching in which students acquire new knowledge and skills in the course of designing, planning, and producing a multimedia product.
       What I understand  in this chapter is the teacher should know how to teach his/her learner using the technology.And he/she should be creative enough in teaching.These presentations will include evidence that your students have mastered key concepts and processes you need to teach and will be a source of great pride for them and for you.

             Well,projector and chalkboard is the same educational technology.They are both visual aid using in  teaching.Projector is a new educational technology uses as a visual aid for teaching.While the chalkboard is old fashioned visual aid but still using now.

             The overhead projector has a lot of advantages compared to other teaching aid. A teacher can use projector the same way using the chalkboard, but the advantage their in using projector, the teacher can  get to face the whole class and maintain eye contact all times with their students instead of having to turn around and write.As a teacher, you would know that eye contact plays a big role in teaching.

             In using chalkboard also have advantages.Using chalkboards in teaching improves teaching effectiveness, classroom management and student academic success.Writing on a chalkboard makes it easier to control the pace of a lecture because it encourages writing while talking---a task that requires instruction at a moderate speed.

  Symbols provide a visual representation of an idea or word. Children who find difficulty in reading can be helped to visualize the meanings of words by seeing a symbol.

Symbols can give these children a voice to express themselves when words fail them.Symbols can help a student to learn and recall information. Symbols can help to remind students of a concept. The symbol itself cannot teach the concept, but once a concept has been understood, symbols can reinforce that understanding and help make the comprehension more permanent.
