The Assessment-Learning Process
As you read in Chapter 1 of your course text, the assessment-learning process consists of a continuous cycle of assessment, planning, and teaching. It is important to consider that the cycle both begins and ends with assessment. "In between assessment there is continuous planning, teaching, and learning" (Howard, V. F., & Aiken, E., 2015, p. 16). In order to be effective caregivers and educators, we must first understand the purpose of assessment. Once we understand the "why," we can then focus on the "how." For this discussion you will reflect on the why, and begin to plan how to move forward in the assessment-learning process.
To prepare for your first discussion, view the Early Childhood Assessment Purposes video. For a transcript of the video, please click HERE. Include the following in your discussion post:
• According to Pretti-Frontczak (2015), there are six main purposes of assessment: Developmental and Behavioral Screening, Eligibility under IDEA, Planning Instruction, Revising Instruction, Program Evaluation, and Accountability. For this discussion you will choose one of these six purposes of assessment and locate a scholarly resource that provides a rationale for this purpose of assessment.
• Discuss why your chosen assessment purpose is important for young children and what some of the detriments or problems are, if any. Support this portion of your post with the scholarly resource you located in the step above.
• Identify how you know where to begin when using assessments with children. Provide specific examples.
• Analyze the importance of goal setting. What are the implications for improper goal-setting?
• Explain what the next steps are if an assessment does not yield comprehensive results.
• Defend why using multiple measures of assessment is considered a best practice. Include at least two reasons and support your rationale with the text and at least one scholarly resource.
