Equitable, Effective Early Childhood Education for All: Policy and Advocacy to Get Us There
Research shows that effective, equitable early childhood education means a confluence of well-compensated, fully supported educators who are knowledgeable and skilled in practices for all children.
In this article, I discuss how learning to use authentic assessment strategies starts with learning to see and observe children in their environments and continues with a teacher’s evaluation and reflection.
Functional analysis is a tool that allows educators to figure out the purpose or function of challenging behavior as well as the events that trigger and maintain it.
Now, in a study funded by the Brady Education Foundation, researchers are testing a culturally flexible tool that will support agency in classrooms so that more children will be offered dynamic and sophisticated learning experiences.
