Emphasize skill mastery over task mastery: • Physical skills (psychomotor domain) • bilateral coordination • gross vs. fine motor skills • Intellectual skills (cognitive domain) • classification • seriation • class inclusion • absolutevs. relative thinking • overlapping categories • hierarchical organization • rehearsal • Social skills (affective domain) • prosocial behavior • aggression • coping with fears • delaying gratification
Using directbehavioral observation (avoiding observer bias): • play-based assessment • sensorimotor play = environmental stimulation • unoccupied play = random & purposeless • solitary play = playing alone (independent play) • onlooker play = observing others at play • parallel play = play alongside, but not sharing • associative play = common activity & interacting (cooperative play) • exploratory play =intended purpose of object • dramatic play = imagination & pretend (symbolic play) • rough-and-tumble play = physical contact • anecdotal record= incident report • time sampling= behavior frequency over time • event sampling= context of behavior
Using checklists: • developmental checklists (preschoolers): • physical skills (psychomotor) • intellectual skills (cognitive) • social skills (affective) • checklists for school-age children Checklist example: Class record sheet
Using rating scales: • numerical rating scales • graphic rating scales
