In 250 words, Interpreting and Using Assessment Results

Case study

Roberto is a 3-year-old boy in the childcare center where you work. Your center uses the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ-3) to screen all children in your care. Roberto scored above the cutoff point in all areas on the ASQ-3 except for communication, where his score was far below the cutoff point, which indicates a need for further assessment. Please answer the following questions (please do not read other classmate responses until you have responded).

As early childhood professionals, we can always use additional assessment data to form a complete assessment on a child.

  1. Based on the scores on the ASQ-3, what would you recommend for further assessment and why?
  2. Please be sure to discuss the limitations of a screening instrument such as the ASQ-3 and appropriate uses of screening results.

    Further assessment indicated that Roberto had a significant language delay, and qualified for language intervention from a speech pathologist through the public school system.

  3. How could you as the early childhood professional in the home childcare center link these assessment results to your instruction?
  4. Please give specific examples and be sure that these are based on developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) and scientifically based practice.

RE: Discussion – Week 7

COLLAPSE

Main Question Post.

Achievement gap in education between majority population students and minority population students.

Achievement Gap

The achievement gap in education refers to the differences in academic achievement between students from majority populations in comparison to students from minority populations, such as high-income families in comparison to low-income families (McFeeters, 2017). Brown (2007) argued that this gap hinders certain populations from being accurately prepared for achievement.

Influencing Factors

Individual. Individual influencing factors for this particular achievement gap could be self-esteem or self-concept. Siregar and Humairo (2018) found that the lack of self-concept can have a negative impact on learning abilities. Achievement is determined by self-concept and the way that the student views his or her own abilities (Siregar & Humairo, 2018).

Social. Social influencing factors for this particular achievement gap could be parents, peers, and teachers. McFeeters (2017) also argued that home life is a social factor that influences achievement gap as well. This means that a “happy home” creates a positive environment for achievement; whereas, a “stressful,” “abusive,” or “neglectful” home creates a negative, undesirable, or unfocused environment for achievement. Additionally, these social factors also decreases self-esteem and self-confidence, which in turn can have a damaging impact on learning abilities and achievement.

Personal Affect. Both the individual and social influencing factors affected me mentally, but I did not allow it to affect me academically. When I was younger, individual influencing factor such as lowered self-esteem was present, but I used it to make myself try harder. Similarly, with the social influencing factor such as parents creating a stressful home environment was also present, but again I used it to keep my focus on achieving more. Currently, these factors affect me because I believe all children should have the same level of academic potential no matter the socioeconomic status.

Gender Stereotyping

I do not believe this particular achievement gap is affected by gender stereotyping or gender-related socialization. Academic achievement between students from high-income families and low-income families is aligned with socioeconomic status, not gender. In fact, Gearin, Fien, and Nelson (2018) believed that in the United States, the socioeconomic status academic achievement gap has been an ongoing issue. Though no relation was found between socioeconomic status and gender.

Conclusion

This achievement gap has implications for individuals to highlight and bring awareness to causes and effects of the gap. Additionally, the same goes for society as well. The change starts individually and flows out into society. Positive social change is the outcome of the implications of this achievement gap.
