Child Progress Assessment Tools | HighScope Preschool Curriculum. How Does HighScope Assess Children's Progress? HighScope's research-validated child assessment tools serve multiple purposes. They are designed to: Look at meaningful educational outcomes Gather information in ways that are natural and comfortable for children and adults Provide accurate data that can be used for individual child planning and policy-level decision making And, because HighScope is an advocate for sound early childhood practices in general, our assessment tools are designed for use by non-HighScope programs as well as by those that do use the HighScope Curriculum.
Benefits of Authentic Assessment Educators assess young children to see how they are developing and to measure how the programs children attend contribute to the children's growth. Traditional testing (for example, a series of multiple-choice questions) is one way to measure; however, this type of test provides only limited information. Authentic assessments are more natural.

Professional Positions & Policies. Preparation and Use of Personnel[1] Chapter 02 Professional Standards, Rights, and Responsibilities CEC Resolutions and Positions Paragraph 1 Right to Quality Instruction The quality of educational services for children and youth with exceptionalities resides in the abilities, qualifications, and competencies of the personnel who provide the services.

Knowing what to address in an AT Assessment is similar to other assessments that are done. We'd like to share with you a helpful framework for team-based AT assessment. It's called the SETT framework and is a guideline for gathering data to make effective AT decisions. You always begin by collecting information about the student. S for the Student E for the Environment T for the Tasks T for the Tools needed for the student to address the tasks.
Here's the rationale: To get the best shot at putting together a system of "useable" tools, the team needs to explore the student, the environments in which the student is expected to use the tools, and the tasks which are an inherent part of communicating, participating and being productive in those environments! SETT's questions are designed to generate thoughts and discussion.
