Valid, Reliable, and Authentic Assessment
to Individualize and Improve Instruction
Ongoing, observation-based assessment is critical to children’s success for
many reasons. Authentic assessment enables teachers to truly get to know
each child and plan intentional, individualized learning experiences for them.
Knowing and understanding each child’s
strengths and needs and what progress they’re
likely to make next in each area of development
and learning, teachers can provide the kind of
support that is needed to ensure that each child
can be successful.
