Scholar Practitioners as Program Evaluators

Evaluating and for early childhood program?

 Will this course help prepare me for Administrative Leadership in the Early Head Start and Head Start education program?

Everything that I learn how to evaluate and accomplish these goals, I will become a leader and advocate this information gained from this course transition into Early Head Start and Head Start programs Education for young children.  This course will provide research on assessing and evaluating education programs and what criteria should be a measurement tool.  This course will help promote positive outcomes for young children and their families. I feel like Supporting Early Childhood Programs’ is perhaps the most vital course in the E.Ds. in Early Childhood Education program.  As I move to the completion of this degree program, this will help prepare me to lead in education. Evaluate program policies in the area of early childhood development in learning in education. Being a part of leading is establishing clear goals and evaluating the progression to reaching these goals.  This leads effectively evaluating early childhood programs in comparison with state and national standards.

One of the main questions that I have is how the information I gained from this course transitions into Early Childhood Programs? 

Is there a program evaluation a tool that is the effect this course will also help transition and benefit my current teaching position in the early childhood classroom.  Learning to evaluate and support the education programs and Early Childhood childcare programs will allow me to transition into a more leadership role within the early childhood Head Start program. According to the reading, Epstein (2003) advocates holding a program accountable for quality assessment. I agree with Epstein. If we want our students to be life-long learners, we must create positive social change in our school.

My goal is to apply what I have learned to improve and interventions for young children and their families using what I have learned.  The transition from the classroom into a more leadership role within the Early Head Start Program making an education change in and improvement.  This degree program and course allow for this transition to take place.  My ultimate goal is to become an Early Childhood Leader for learning for Early childhood and Head Start.  Therefore, learning how to evaluate and support education programs would be vital in my future. A leadership role would be evaluating teachers and others and this learning outcome and the school progress.

  https://jenkinsjacqueline.blogspot.com/    Hello everyone, thank you for viewing my blog. I have two interventions one is a boy named Tyler and a girl named Amy. I am asking for help in deciding the best researched-based assessment for my students in these two scenarios. These scenarios are not giving away what the assessment I chose to use nor what my colleagues suggested I use. This will inform various assessments to create meaningful lesson plans and curriculum for our students and their future. The more assessments available, parents and stakeholders can review data and make choices in the best interest of the child. The tasks can be completed authentic, and young children will be successful.   This information provided gives a purposeful assessment as defined by Ebbeck, Teo, Tan, & Goh. (2014). Tyler is a 6-year-old boy in the second grade. Tyler lives with both parents and his older brother; he is 8 years old. Tyler had been diagnosed with Auti...

  The State of Georgia has a very long history as a leader in promoting early learning and development outcomes for young children. Georgia introduced its latest set of high-quality, research-based first learning standards for children birth to age five called the Georgia Early Learning and Development Standards (GELDS). The GELDS program promotes quality learning experiences for children. They are a set of appropriate, attainable standards that are flexible enough to support children’s individual rates of development, approaches to learning, and cultural context.
