CHCECE013 - Support The Accuracy of Observations

Hi Lorina,
Not sure if this sounds correct or if I am off track....
The Question is....Why do you think it's important to support the accuracy of your observations with further evidence?
What are are some examples of other evidence you could use?
Here's what I have written....Information recorded regarding observations should be accurate and based on the facts. The observations should not be based on assumptions in regards to children's needs and interests when you are observing.
Other evidence educators could use as evidence would be taking photographs of children when they are involved in play and activities with other children. Video and audio taping is also a good method of evidence.
Not sure is this is correct or what else I can add, as need at least 100 words.
Thanks and have a great week-end!
cheers :)

Yes, that's a good response! :thumbup:

Also when observing a child you need to gather further evidence to make sure that the skill/achievement that the child has shown is consistent and has actually developed that particular skill or reached the goal you have set out. This can be shown through evidence you collect e.g. photos, work samples, writing samples, etc.
