Answers for Competency 1 Explanations15:49
The answer for comp 1 question 2 says B but on my presentation I say A. You are right. The answer should be B as you said. One of my friends was helping me about this. BTW I mentioned the answer in the questions. I said also if "more than, rather than, less than" are being used, the answer is generally wrong (if there is comparison between two students) but in the answer choice b talks about more than one point of view. It is a positive thing for students. I cannot change the video but at least I corrected it in the comment section. For next videos, I will be more careful. I hope you like this comment.

I explained the answer in the video but I said D for question number 10. Sorry about that. I will correct that one. I think you did your master's degree and you took the research class. When you do the research, you should put everything in the bibliography and make an outline. This is exactly organizational skill. I will remove that part in the video.

Question Number 10

The answer is A. We are not giving or assigning our role to anyone such as librarian. When you do the research, you should put everything in the bibliography and make an outline. This is exactly organizational skill.
Answers for Competency 2 Explanations18:36
Question Number 7

The answer is Obviously D. If a teacher gives written instructions the question is probably wrong there in PPR test because we don’t know if the students have Internet at their home or not. C is wrong. If a teacher says something for all students that means the answer choice is very close to the answer.

Description

Hi Dear teachers. I am mostly reading first videos especially and it could be boring for you. The most important part is Answers. There are so many useful hints for passing the test. Be patient.

I will put some comments from my teachers who took the test and passed

Cynthia Maltez2 weeks ago. I had 2 days to prepare for the PPR! During this stressful time due to the pandemic I had trouble staying focused but I prayed&prayed. I started by taking the $10 practice test on TeXes to see what I didn’t understand. I watched all of your videos and completed each quiz at the end of the videos. I also looked up definitions and examples of specific vocabulary. Then I took the exam in the manual and read the reasoning for each answer.. I studied Blooms Taxonomy. Slowly read the question and highlighted keywords and terms. Read the question 3-4 times. & PASSED THE TEST!! Thank you for your helpful videos!
Vanessa Tippol 1 year ago Thank you for doing this!
I watched all of your PPR videos and I took notes of your tips and advice! I passed my PPR from the first try! Thank you so much for sharing this important information and tips :D For anyone who is studying for the PPR, watch the videos, take notes, study every day for like one hour or it depends on your time limit, and find practice questions online. Always the best scenario perfect world and eliminate answer choices that don't make sense!
Jose Caceres1 year ago. Thank you for all the competencies you posted on here. I will be taking my PPR exam in a month.
Blessed Soul 3 months ago. I passed my PPR on my very 1st attempt last Saturday. I used 3.5 hours on the allocated time. Praise God!
Teebox 1 year ago. I had one week to prepare for the test and these videos pretty much covered everything I needed to know. Just one tip. The questions on the test are very literal so read the question, look at the choices and read the question again and think carefully about what it's asking. If you do that, there is only one answer that goes with the question. These videos were a life-saver.
Thank you :D It is a really great idea! Helped a lot :)
I was trying to take the test and I couldn’t find any resources then I promised to myself that I will prepare the videos to help everyone. Btw, it is very great to hear you passed first attempt.
