What I experienced about learning by baby sitting my 3 year old niece for onl...leadchangeagent
The document describes the author's experience babysitting their 3-year-old niece for 6 hours. They engaged in various learning activities using technology like iPads, iPhones, and Kindles. The niece intuitively used the devices and was able to flip pages and type. They also did hands-on learning outside by fishing and drawing on the sidewalk. The author reflects on how adults can learn from this experience, noting that adults prefer active, engaged learning through real-world activities and events rather than passive memorization. Technology now allows for more interactive, collaborative learning styles.
This document summarizes key concepts in socioemotional development in infancy. It discusses emotional expressions in infants, stranger anxiety, separation anxiety, social smiling, different types of cries, temperament, attachment styles, trust and attachment theory, the development of self, gender roles/identity, and influences on childcare and parenting.
Checklists rating scales Rubrics for PreschoolCleo Leuterio
This document discusses checklists, their purposes, uses, and design. Checklists are made up of learning objectives or developmental indicators. They are used to understand development, provide a framework for curriculum, and assess learning. Checklists for infants/toddlers track physical, cognitive, and social development, while those for older children focus more on academics. Checklists can also assess children with delays. Well-designed checklists clearly identify skills, list behaviors separately, organize items by difficulty, and provide a method for recording results.
This document discusses the difference between observations and inferences. An observation is a factual statement describing what can be seen through the senses. An inference is a conclusion or judgment made based on observations, but which cannot be directly observed itself. The document provides examples of quantitative and qualitative observations, and how scientists extend their senses through tools. It also gives examples of observations versus inferences related to a wilted plant, a stopped car, and a baseball team's division lead.
This document provides an assessment of typical infant development from 0-12 months across several domains: cognitive, physical, social-emotional, and language. It outlines developmental milestones and behaviors expected at different age ranges in each domain. For example, cognitively infants may imitate sounds by 3 months and search for hidden objects by 6 months. Physically, infants may roll from back to front by 4 months and sit unsupported by 8 months. Socially and emotionally, infants begin to recognize familiar people by 5 months and check with caregivers for needs by 10 months. In language, infants may coo and babble by 3 months and say first words by 12 months.

Francisco de Goya fue un pintor español que nació en 1746. Tuvo una carrera artística que abarcó varias etapas, incluyendo obtener encargos reales y ser nombrado pintor de cámara. En 1792 enfermó gravemente y quedó sordo, lo que marcó un cambio en su estilo pictórico. Durante la guerra de independencia española contra Napoleón, Goya documentó los horrores de la guerra en su serie de grabados Los desastres de la guerra. Más tarde, pintó
The Irish experience of developing and implementing a national qualifications framework is documented. A particular emphasis is placed on the evolution of the institutional structures maintaining the framework.
1. The document discusses curriculum planning, observation, and documentation for infant and toddler care. It emphasizes the importance of play, interactions, caregiving routines, and relationships as the core components of the curriculum.
2. Teachers are encouraged to closely observe infants through engagement and all senses to understand their development, needs, and interests in order to be highly responsive and support attachment.
3. Curriculum planning is an ongoing reflective process of observing, documenting, assessing, and discussing with families to continuously adapt to each child's unique learning and development.
Family systems theory views the family as an interconnected system where each member and relationship affects the whole. It focuses on interactions rather than individuals. Key aspects of family systems include boundaries, rules, roles, power dynamics, and communication patterns. Munichin identified four parenting styles - authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and uninvolved - that have different impacts on children's development, with authoritative parenting tending to produce the best outcomes.
The document discusses the goals, objectives, and methods of evaluation in early childhood education. It explains that goals provide an overall view of what children will gain, while objectives are more specific. There are different types of objectives like developmental, content, and behavioral. Regular observation of children through daily activities is important for assessment, with the goal of understanding children's development and improving teaching. Valid observations do not interfere with natural learning experiences. Evaluation monitors progress and helps with planning, and integrated assessment and curriculum are important.
Observation and assessment eye wk 1 and 2HCEfareham
The document provides guidance for observations and assessments of children in early education settings. It discusses the importance of ongoing, formative assessment to understand children's progress, interests and learning styles. Assessments should not require excessive paperwork and should involve sharing information with parents. The document also outlines different statutory assessments, skills needed for objective observation, and factors to consider such as gaining permission, confidentiality, and avoiding bias.
This document outlines typical developmental milestones from birth to 18 months. It discusses evaluating developmental progress through parental interviews about achievements. A child's developmental quotient can be calculated from these interviews, with a score less than 70% indicating a developmental delay requiring further assessment. The document then lists expected gross motor, visual-motor, language, and social/adaptive skills by month.

"Because once u dont knw whts normal, u cant knw n differentiate between an abnormal"
This document discusses children's rights to play according to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and how early years settings support these rights. It explains that the UNCRC established the basic human rights all children have, including the right to play. It also discusses the UK government's Play Strategy which aims to improve play spaces. Early years settings support children's right to play by providing varied play opportunities both indoors and outdoors to accommodate different ages and development levels.
Records and reports at the community level provide important health information. Records include individual health cards, family folders, community folders, and national health program records. They are categorized by type (e.g. periodic, unit-based), subject (e.g. medical, social), and collection place (e.g. health centers, with individuals). Important records kept at health centers include family folders, MCH cards, and treatment/referral records. Records kept with patients include health cards and medicine stock registers. Maintaining accurate, organized records and reports is essential for assessing community health, collecting data, planning, and conducting research.

The document provides guidance for assessing the development of children aged 6 months to 5 years during a 9 minute station. It outlines the key areas to assess including motor, language, social, and behavioral development. Sample milestones are provided for different ages. The approach involves introducing yourself, observing the child, then focusing the assessment on one area such as fine motor or language skills. The goal is to demonstrate understanding of developmental milestones and how to summarize findings and management plans for children with delays.
This document provides an overview of developmental assessment for children. It discusses the goal of developmental assessment as generating a diagnosis and analyzing strengths and weaknesses to direct treatment. It also covers principles of development, value of assessment, common assessment tools, domains of development, developmental milestones, and risk factors. The document aims to guide healthcare providers in conducting developmental assessments and identifying potential developmental delays.
The document summarizes the origins and development of qualifications frameworks in Ireland and internationally. It discusses how Ireland established a national qualifications framework (NFQ) in 1999 to promote quality, access, and progression across all education and training. The NFQ defines 10 levels of qualifications and relates Irish qualifications to the European Qualifications Framework and Bologna Framework. Implementation of the NFQ across higher education, further education, and vocational education has led to new qualifications, terminology and opportunities for learners. Studies show the NFQ is now well established and integrated into quality assurance, curriculum design, and other areas across Ireland's education and training systems. Globally over 150 countries now have or are developing qualifications frameworks to support recognition of learning and cross

This document discusses qualifications frameworks and learning outcomes. It explains that qualifications frameworks organize education around learning outcomes, which are statements about what a learner is expected to know or be able to do after a learning experience. Learning outcomes serve as a shared language between higher education institutions, academics, students, employers, and policymakers. Quality assurance processes link learning outcomes to qualifications by accrediting programs based on how well assessment and instruction align with intended outcomes.
Taken from the vocational education and training workshop held at the Erasmus+ UK 'My Story' Annual Conference 2015. Originally presented by Michael Trueman, team leader for vocational education and training at the Erasmus+ UK National Agency.
This presentation looks at how VET transparency and recognition tools within the Erasmus+ programme can be used to promote lifelong learning and employability within projects. The workshop was mainly delivered by experts in the fields. It focuses on ECVET, EQAVET, EQF and Europass and provides practical examples and templates for these initiatives.
This document discusses quality assurance frameworks in Europe and Ireland's experience with quality assurance. It contains the following key points:
1) European standards and guidelines outline three layers of quality assurance - internal quality assurance, external quality assurance, and external quality assurance agencies.
2) Qualifications frameworks in Europe are based on learning outcomes and aim to integrate quality assurance.
3) In Ireland, quality and qualifications responsibilities were consolidated into a single agency called Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI).
4) QQI guidelines address important aspects of quality assurance like program design, learning outcomes, assessment strategies, and internal and external quality reviews.
Quality assurance in the Bologna Process (EHEA) relies on qualifications frameworks to articulate the expected end points of higher education studies. Higher education institutions and quality assurance agencies use the learning outcomes as articulated in NFQs to enter into dialogue with their stakeholders.
This document discusses national qualifications frameworks and their self-certification of compatibility with the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) framework. It provides an overview of qualifications meta-frameworks, the typical stages of national qualifications framework development, and scorecard data on countries' progress. It then examines the criteria and procedures for self-certification, examples of countries that have undertaken joint EQF/QF-EHEA referencing reports, and challenges encountered in self-certification processes. While self-certification methods vary, the process provides incentives for countries to strengthen their national qualifications frameworks and enhance international recognition and reputation.
The document discusses methodologies for assessing joint degree programs offered by multiple higher education institutions. It outlines projects by the Nordic Quality Assurance Network (NOQA) and the European Consortium for Accreditation (ECA) to develop and test approaches to jointly evaluating such programs. Both projects found that joint quality assurance is feasible but requires overcoming legal challenges and differences in approaches across countries. Future work should focus on building mutual trust between agencies and further developing systems for recognition of joint qualifications.
The document discusses proposals for the Erasmus for All programme, which aims to simplify and broaden the scope of EU education and training programmes. It proposes consolidating current programmes into Erasmus for All with three "Key Actions": (1) learning mobility, (2) cooperation for innovation, and (3) support for policy reform. Key aspects include increasing the budget to €19 billion and supporting over 5 million individuals in education, training, youth exchanges and cooperation. The proposal aims to simplify operations and administration while broadening eligibility. Challenges to its implementation include balancing sectoral needs and ensuring quality assurance.
The document summarizes Macedonia's experience with referencing its national qualifications framework (MQF) to the European Qualifications Framework (EQF). It discusses the MQF development process, governance structure, and level descriptors. It also outlines Macedonia's referencing roadmap, including workshops held with international experts. The referencing report was presented to the EQF Advisory Group in 2015. The group concluded that criteria 1,2,5,6,7,8,9,10 were fully met and that criteria 3,4 were partially met, but Macedonia presented clear steps to progress in these areas. Key open issues included further defining qualifications levels and sub-levels, improving learning outcomes for some vocational qualifications, and developing
The European Framework for Quality Assurance in Higher EducationColin Tück
The document discusses European quality assurance frameworks for higher education. It outlines the European Standards and Guidelines (ESG) which provide common standards for quality assurance. It also describes the European Quality Assurance Register (EQAR) which registers quality assurance agencies that comply with the ESG. The key points covered are:
1) The ESG provide common standards for internal and external quality assurance across Europe.
2) EQAR maintains a register of quality assurance agencies that comply substantially with the ESG to enhance trust in higher education.
3) Current priorities in the European Higher Education Area include enhancing learning/teaching quality, graduate employability, and implementing structural reforms.
The document summarizes the UNESCO/OECD Guidelines on Quality Provision in Cross-Border Higher Education. It discusses the status and implementation of the guidelines, as well as the need for them given the growth of cross-border higher education. The guidelines aim to support quality, protect students, and encourage cooperation. They provide principles and guidance for higher education institutions, quality assurance bodies, and other stakeholders to help ensure quality in cross-border education. Next steps discussed include information tools, conferences, and assessing how the guidelines have been applied.
New Trends in Higher Education Quality Assurance in EuropeColin Tück
The document discusses new trends in quality assurance in European higher education. It outlines the European Higher Education Area's vision of higher education contributing to inclusive societies. Key priorities include enhancing quality teaching and learning, increasing graduate employability, and implementing structural reforms. The standards and guidelines for quality assurance provide a common framework across Europe. New developments include adopting the revised 2015 standards, enabling cross-border quality assurance using registered agencies, establishing a European approach for quality assurance of joint programs, and working towards automatic recognition of qualifications by 2020.
Subject-specific International Accreditation for Technical ProfilesLvivPolytechnic
ASIIN is an accreditation agency based in Germany that has been accrediting programs in engineering, informatics, natural sciences, and mathematics since 1999. It has expertise in international accreditation and works with other European agencies to award quality labels for accredited programs. The accreditation process at ASIIN involves the program submitting a self-assessment report, an on-site visit from a team of peer reviewers, and a recommendation from the reviewers that is considered by ASIIN's decision-making bodies. The process aims to evaluate key aspects of programs such as learning outcomes, curriculum, teaching staff, facilities, and quality management.

Ebba Ossiannilsson gave a presentation on quality assurance in e-learning. She discussed driving forces for quality like branding, digitalization, and internationalization. She explained that benchmarking is used to improve performance by learning from better-performing organizations. The E-xcellence instrument was introduced as a benchmarking tool to evaluate e-learning quality in areas like curriculum design and student support. Local seminars have been held in several countries to introduce the instrument. Quality assurance agencies could play a role in assessing e-learning programs and providing recommendations on quality assurance benchmarks.

Validation is the process by which an awarding body confirms that a learner who completes an education program will acquire the intended knowledge, skills, and competencies. The awarding body reviews the program's design and development to ensure it is coherent, has the necessary capacity and resources, and complies with standards and regulations. The validation process involves comparing a program to occupational profiles developed by industry consortiums, quality assurance guidelines, and ensuring existing QA procedures are followed. The first apprenticeship programs submitted for validation were not ready, and both providers and the awarding body learned more was needed, such as additional guidance and communications, to help apprenticeship programs successfully complete the validation process.
This presentation was for a pair of workshops with European student representatives meeting in Amsterdam in 2016 on the topic of qualifications recognition and mobility in Europe.
The National Framework of Qualifications in Ireland was launched in 2003 after years of consultation and development, and has since undergone several revisions to align with international frameworks like the European Qualifications Framework. It provides coherence across the Irish education and training system by being used for quality assurance, curriculum design, recognition of prior learning, career guidance, workforce development, international recognition, skills strategies, and more. A review of the framework is scheduled for 2016.
Bryan Maguire from QQI gave a presentation on the European Qualifications Framework and how it is being implemented. A recent evaluation found little evidence so far of the EQF's impact on national education systems as implementation needs more time. However, early adopting countries like Ireland and the UK see political benefits from sharing experiences with other countries. The EQF also provides structure and support for countries developing new national qualifications frameworks.
QQI is Ireland's new integrated agency for quality and qualifications that was formed through the merger of several bodies. It oversees further and higher education qualifications frameworks and quality assurance. Teagasc offers agricultural qualifications up to Level 6 that fall under QQI's common awards system. This involves modular components and credit points. QQI is working to streamline processes like validation and quality reviews that Teagasc must go through. Overall, QQI aims to support education providers like Teagasc while taking on more responsibility for qualifications and quality improvement across Ireland's education system.
