Becoming an emergency medical technician (EMT) or paramedic can take anywhere from one to three years, depending on a studentâs choice of career and educational path. EMT training focuses on life support techniques in first-response situations, including CPR, tourniquet application, and treatment of wounds.MT basic training (EMT-B) takes anywhere from six months to two years to complete, depending on the institution. These programs are offered at technical institutes and community colleges and typically include 120 to 150 hours of coursework.
When educators spend precious instructional time administering and scoring assessments, the utility of the results should be worth the time and effort spent. They want to understand the results and use them to meaningfully adjust instruction and better support student learning. This is what consequential relevance is.
Every educator guides each child to fulfill his or her potential and be a lifelong learner. Educators should hold high expectations for students, model daily learning, and guide students to set standards-based learning goals. Ongoing multiple assessments drive instruction. Assessments should be accurate, varied, and relevant to students'. strengths and challenges and to standards-based learning goals. Educators should help students develop skills, attitudes, and habits which will aid current and future success.
