Phone: Office Hours: Address: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST Monday - Friday darcie_donegan@virtualeduc.com Virtual Education Software E Indiana Ave, Suite 1450 Spokane, WA Technical Support: support@virtualeduc.com Introduction Welcome to Early Childhood: Observation & Assessment, an interactive distance learning course which explores observation and assessment instruments, as well as recommended practices and available resources for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Content includes an emphasis on observing young
2 children and assessing their early childhood learning environments. This computer-based instruction course is a self-supporting program that provides instruction, structured practice, and evaluation all on your home or school computer. Technical support information can be found, in the Help section of your course. Course Materials Title: Author: Early Childhood: Observation & Assessment Darcie Donegan, MA/Ed. Publisher: Virtual Education Software, inc Academic Integrity Statement The structure and format of most distance-learning courses presume a high level of personal and academic integrity in completion and submission of coursework. Individuals enrolled in a CBI distancelearning course are expected to adhere to the following standards of academic conduct. Academic Work Academic work submitted by the individual (such as papers, assignments, reports, tests) shall be the student s own work or appropriately attributed, in part or in whole, to its correct source. Submission of commercially prepared (or group prepared) materials as if they are one s own work is unacceptable. Aiding Honesty in Others The individual will encourage honesty in others by refraining from providing materials or information to another person with knowledge that these materials or information will be used improperly. Violations of these academic standards will result in the assignment of a failing grade and subsequent loss of credit for the course.
3 Level of Application This course is designed as one part of a five-part series on early childhood education. Upon completion of all five courses you will have covered all of the CDA Competencies to earn a CDA Credential (applicable in certain states). This course specifically covers CDA Competencies 1-9, 12, and 13 (Check your individual state requirements), which all relate to the establishment of well-run, purposeful programs for young children that are responsive to individual needs and advance the development of the whole child. This course is designed for anyone planning programs for young children--child-care providers, early childhood educators, and health care or social services providers, to name a few. Course Objectives Reflect on your own biases and learn best practice for observation and assessment of young children. Describe the cycle and functions of observation and assessment in early childhood settings. Identify a variety of observation recording instruments associated for developmental screening and program assessment. Learn advantages and disadvantages of each instrument in order to identify the most appropriate choice for different goals. Understand how to summarize and interpret observation data to assess children and programs. Apply observation data to planning for individual children and programs. Develop formats for documenting, sharing and explaining observation and assessment practices and information to parents and colleagues. Design a personal strategy for gathering information and keeping records in a specific early childhood setting. Course Description This course is designed to help educators, para-professionals and child caregivers observe and assess various aspects of children s development and programs. Participants will learn the components necessary for strong observation skills, such as self-awareness, objectivity, confidentiality and ethical guidelines. The course will then discuss various types of observation and recording tools, as well as the advantages and disadvantages associated with each. Students will learn how to set goals, plan, and choose the best instrument for specific situations. Included will be tools for assessing environments, developmental milestones and programming. The why, when, where, what and how of conducting appropriate observations and authentic assessments will be covered. Participants will gain techniques for organizing, analyzing and interpreting observation data. This course will teach how to apply assessment information to improve program quality and to best meet the needs of individual children.
4 Students will discuss proper methods for displaying observations and sharing assessments. Included will be portfolio development and other documentation methods that make children s experiences visible. The course will then show ways to communicate observation and assessment information to parents and other appropriate adults. Finally, students will apply course concepts by creating an observation and assessment plan for their own classroom environment. Student Expectations As a student, you will be expected to: Complete all information chapters covering Observation & Assessment, showing a competent understanding of the material presented. Complete all chapter exams covering Observation & Assessment, showing a competent understanding of the material presented. Complete a review of any chapter on which your examination score was below 70%. Retake any chapter examination, after completing an information review, to increase that final examination score to a minimum of 70% (maximum of three attempts). Complete a course evaluation form at the end of the course. Course Topics General Overview of Chapters One through Four Topics: 1) Introduction to Observation & Assessment: What and Why? 2) Definitions, History & Trends in Early Childhood Assessment 3) Personal Ethical & Legal Guidelines: Best Practices 4) Observing & Recording Tools: Using & Choosing 5) Authentic Assessment of Children & Environments 6) Interpreting for Meaning: Analyzing & Applying Data 7) Documentations & Communication: Showing & Sharing
5 8) Course Summary and Conclusion Examinations At the end of each chapter, you will be expected to complete an examination designed to assess your knowledge. You may take these exams a total of three times. Your last score will save, not the highest score. After your third attempt, each examination will lock and not allow further access. Your final grade for the course will be determined by calculating an average score of all exams. This score will be printed on your final certificate. As this is a self-paced computerized instruction program, you may review course information as often as necessary. You will not be able to exit any examinations until you have answered all questions. If you try to exit the exam before you complete all questions, your information will be lost. You are expected to complete the entire exam in one sitting.
