Credit(s): 3
This course introduces students to the role of assessment in early childhood and elementary education. Types of formal and informal assessment for classroom purposes will be discussed as well as standardized assessments at the school, district and state level. Assessment for English Language Learners (ELLs) will be a focus of the course. Assessments for determining English language proficiency in the identification of ELLs will be an element of the course. Standard and nonstandard types of assessment will be explored for the purpose of informing planning and instruction for ELLs as well as program development. Discussion will focus on reducing bias and the need for linguistic and culturally relevant assessment for ELLs. Linguistic and cultural considerations will also be discussed in the identification of ELLs for special education.
