3 Assessment is not about evaluation but about getting info True authentic based assessment would occur in a natural setting over a period of time by means of systematic observation The intent is to know a child s development, learning styles and skills so we can determine what the child can do and be able to provide learning experiences for the next set of skills ResultsMatter,Video library Early Intervention-Authentic Assessment in Early Intervention Best Practice: Seeing the Child in the context of Family 3

5 Early On Comprehensive Evaluation What is Early On? The delivery of services in Michigan for children from birth to three years of age who have developmental delays and or established conditions Michigan s comprehensive plan for Part C of Public Law IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Developmental delay Established Conditions Eligibility for Early On _Bulletins/Reference_Bulletin_10_Eligibility%20Determination.pdf Developmental Delay Children from birth through 2 years of age whose development is delayed by 20% in one or more of the following areas: 1.

7 Evaluations/Reports Limited in how we follow recommended practices for Infant Toddler Assessment when we are looking for eligibility for Early On 1. Diagnostic nature requires standardization 2.

8 Integrative Report Descriptive info re: agency, child and evaluator Referral/ Evaluation info re: who, what, where and why Developmental & Health History Observational discoveries Developmental levels & descriptions Summary Recommendations re: eligibility including parental concerns etc. Signatures and titles of evaluators Integrative Reports Template.doc Informed Clinical Opinion Informed opinion (e.g. clinical judgment)is a recommended practice authorized in the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) to (1) document the often unrecognized capabilities and subtle dimensions of the development and behavior infants and toddlers with special needs (Neisworth,Bagnato 2011) Guidelines for ICO Used for determining eligibility based on developmental delay regarding difficult to measure aspects of current developmental status and the potential need for early intervention 8
9 ICO is used for Children whose age is under 2 months and therefore a 20% delay is difficult to measure Children over 2 months when delay is suspected but traditional tools do not show the delay. ICO Is not a means to circumvent the eligibility criteria for Early On A multidisciplinary team must synthesize and interpret information from 1. Clinical Interview with parents 2. Evaluation of the child at play 3. Observation of the parent-child interaction 4. Information of the caregivers that spend significant time with the child 5. Neurodevelopmental and other physical examinations 6. Additional psychometric and diagnostic data ICO An ICO must: 1. Be compiled into a written integrative report 2. Identify what sources of information were used 3. Identify who provided the information 4. Identify the estimated % of delay 5. Contain recommendations related to the IFSP 6. Be attached to the IFSP(to ensure it is captured as part of the IFSP development) 9
