Answer 1

1. An educator will exhibit solid topic matter understanding as well as numerous principles, methodologies, and resources relevant to teaching in a country's setting as a learning mediator. The educator will mediate learning in a way that is sensitive to the different needs of learners, including those with learning difficulties; create learning environments that are adequately contextualized and inspirational; and communicate effectively, acknowledging and respecting others' differences. In addition, an educator must show a thorough understanding of topic content as well as diverse ideas, methodologies, and resources relevant to teaching in a particular country's setting.

2. The educator will understand and interpret provided learning programs, design original learning programs, identify the requirements for a specific context of learning, and select and prepare appropriate textual and visual resources for learning as an interpreter and designer of learning programs and materials. In addition, the educator will choose, sequence, and pace the learning in a way that is responsive to the demands of the subject learning area and the learners.

3. The educator will act as a leader, administrator, and manager, making judgments that are appropriate for the level, managing learning in the classroom, efficiently carrying out classroom administrative duties, and participating in school decision-making processes. These skills will be demonstrated in ways that are democratic, supportive of learners and colleagues, and sensitive to changing circumstances and needs.

4. Scholar, researcher, and learner for the rest of my life. Through introspective study and research in their learning area, in larger professional and educational topics, and in other connected domains, the educator will attain continual personal, intellectual, occupational, and professional improvement.

5. Community, citizenship, and pastoral responsibilities are all important. In order to build a sense of respect and responsibility for others, the educator will exercise and promote a critical, committed, and ethical attitude. In schools and society, the educator will support the constitution and promote democratic principles and practices. Within the school, the educator will exhibit the ability to provide a supportive and empowering atmosphere for the learner, as well as respond to educational and other needs of students and colleagues. Furthermore, based on a critical awareness of community and environmental development, the educator will create supportive relationships with parents and other essential individuals and organizations.

6. Assessor. The educator will recognize that assessment is an important part of the teaching and learning process and will know how to incorporate it. The educator will be able to provide useful feedback to students by knowing the aims, methods, and impacts of assessment. Both formative and summative assessment will be designed and managed by the educator in ways that are suitable to the level and purpose of the learning and meet the requirements of accrediting organizations. The instructor will retain meticulous and diagnostic evaluation records. The educator will know how to analyze and apply assessment outcomes in order to improve learning processes.

7. The educator will be well-versed in the knowledge, skills, values, principles, methods, and processes applicable to the discipline, subject, learning area, phase of study, or professional or occupational practice. Different approaches to teaching and learning (and, when necessary, research and administration) will be familiar to the educator, as well as how to use them in ways that are acceptable for the learners and the situation.
