    Description
    This course is an in-depth study of techniques to observe and record behavior in educational settings. Emphasis is on the observation and assessment of behavior as an integral element within the context of the developmental interaction and emergent curriculum models. The use of findings to inform and plan learning environments and experiences are emphasized. Recording strategies, rating systems, portfolios, and multiple assessment methods are explored.
