Dear colleagues, 

the time for our next HUPE Slavonski Brod Branch meeting has come. It will be held on February 29, 2024 at 5 pm at OŠ Dradutin Tadijanović.

Agenda: 

1. Sandra Halt-Ćuže, prof.mentor: „SOLDIER OF LOVE – TIME MACHINE“
   As an opener to the lecture a few musical numbers will be presented within quizzes and/or exercises. The topic itself is a report on a video making challenge in organization of HUPE, Croatia and the languages United – boutique school of English (Bath, England).There will be a short presentation of students who have won and their work and contribution in similar projects up to date. Next, we will touch upon the synopsis and the scenery of the film, as well as the shooting process itself. We will talk about the positive outcomes of the process as well as some drawbacks. The subsequent workshop will consist of array of helpful tools used in editing videos, with the stress on finding a good way in outlining the story and reaching the final product: maintaining the creative impulse, transmitting the message while respecting the language input given.

2. Lidija Čorni, prof. izvrsni savjetnik i Kornelija Šebalj, prof. savjetnik: “Item Writing: Objectives for Objective Tests.”
   Assessment has been an integral part of any learning process. More often than not, it doesn't serve its main purpose but poses problems for both the examinee and the teacher, or in this case an item-writer. So, what is its main purpose? It is establishing or measuring the level of achievement in knowledge or ability. Why are tests sometimes problematic? For students, they are intimidating because of the risk of failing or not achieving the necessary standards, especially with high-risk tests, and for teachers as item-writers, the difficulties may arise when designing a valid and reliable test that serves the teacher's purpose. This workshop will try to tackle some of the questions mentioned above.
