Along with using checklists, rating scales, and rubrics as informal assessment tools, teacher-designed assessments are a common choice for many early childhood educators. “Teacher-designed assessments support other evaluation measures, enabling the teacher to make more accurate decisions for the instruction of individual students” (Wortham & Hardin, 2015, p. 188). As a leader, you will likely be involved in helping your colleagues develop teacher-designed assessments that will provide them with the information they need to make informed decisions about how to meet the needs of the children they work with.
For your assignment this week, imagine that you have asked each member of your staff to develop a teacher-designed assessment to use with students. Before each member can use it, she needs to submit it to you so that you can ensure it meets the requirements of a quality teacher-designed assessment. After reviewing the assessment, you will provide each member with feedback about the assessment and how she can use it to inform her instruction.
Follow the steps below to complete your assignment:
Step 1: Choose a Teacher-Designed Assessment to Evaluate: Choose one assessment from the list below to evaluate for this assignment. You are encouraged to choose an assessment that is aligned with the age (infants/toddlers, preschoolers, school-aged) of children you are currently working with or plan on working with.
Step 3: Provide Feedback: After evaluating your chosen teacher-designed assessment in Step 3, provide written feedback for the teacher that includes the following:
State the objective of the assessment. Use the guidelines on pages 196-201 of your course text, Assessment in Early Childhood Education, as a guide.
Explain how the teacher-designed assessment does or does not meet the characteristics of a quality teacher-designed assessment. Make sure to include specific evidence from either the Teacher-Designed Assessment Checklist or the Teacher-Designed Assessment Rubric to support your decision. In addition, support your explanation with at least one scholarly or credible source.
Describe how the assessment is appropriate for the intended age group
Analyze how the assessment does or does not align with the purposes of teacher-designed assessments.
Explain at least two ways the assessment could be used to inform instruction
When submitting your assignment, make sure to include either the completed Teacher-Designed Assessment Checklist or the completed Teacher-Designed Assessment Rubric you used in Step 2 with your written feedback as one document.

Climate and Learning Environment< Each of the positions or jobs listed in Week 1 take place in a specific location within the Multigenerational Center. As a future employee of one of these spaces, you will be designing the environment in which you will work. Depending on your field of study and/or your job role, the questions you might ask yourself and the environmental factors you may consider could vary. For example: •As a librarian what are the things that will be important to consider? Integration of technology, lighting, available resources, and so forth will all be important to the design of each environment. Learning environment design for both children and adults has been shown to have tremendous impact on learning. •As an instructional designer, consider the different elements that should be considered when presenting material digitally or when creating an online classroom. How will your clients interact? What will their environment need to be like? Sometimes the environment in which instruction will take place will influence the design of the learning materials or activities. If you have selected to work with the senior center, there are even more considerations for an environment that is suitable for seniors. Young children also have unique needs. •And so on for each program… To prepare for this post: •Think about the ideal environment that you will create for your role (that you applied for and were hired for) in the learning center. •Check out these resources for ideas and suggestions. ◦Renovated Learning: Building a Culture of Creativity + Discovery in Education (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. ◦The Art of Innovation: Designing Learning Spaces for a Creative, Collaborative Future (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Consider thinking of outside-the-box opportunities for creativity and innovation in the space that you are designing such as collaborative learning space, interactive social environments, noise, and supervision of clients. In your initial post, •Include the position and environment in which you will be working in the learning center. •Describe the ideal environment that includes ◦The physical setup ◦Any special considerations as well as an explanation of why you have selected to set things up the way that you are.
