Narrative:
Conducted traffic pattern operations with a student in preparation for a checkride; conducting touch and goes performing forward slips to landings. On left downwind leg preparing for the fifth and last landing the student is seeing an airplane landing. We did not hear any communication from this airplane; and proceeded with our landing pattern. In turning base the airplane has landed long and [I] am expecting the airplane to be clear by the time we arrive to final. We make our final call and realize the airplane is back taxiing for the delta exit about half way down the runway. Our runway is 8;800 feet long and in that we are doing forward slip practice I am continuing the approach and landing. We landed in the beginning of the runway and [were] back taxiing for taxiway charlie exit in the beginning of the landing runway 17. The airplane is an eclipse jet; and we never heard him or any communications from this airplane. On the post flight briefing I advised my student that any time there is an airplane on the runway; to not land and conduct the go-around procedure. On the next flight the following day we verified that our radio is working properly where we can transmit and receive.as we are leaving the airplane parking area a passenger from the jet is asking what happened; and I told him I do not know as we were transmitting and they could hear us; however; we never heard them. My immediate opinion is that the eclipse's transmitter was not selected to our CTAF.in retrospect; this incident should have been used as a teachable moment to the student; and I should have performed a go-around. However; I did call the student later this evening and emphasized this.
