This is the culminating assignment that brings together what we have discussed in this course.
Using the information you have already collected (DRDP, ECERS, CLASS, and TPOT) imagine that
all of your assessments were conducted on one school. You will create a summary of the school
by using the evidence from your assessments and evaluating the program using the QRIS to
determine if this particular program meets quality standards.
Instructions
Utilize the data from your observations and notes, course content/course literature and critical
thinking skills to establish the schools strengths and areas for improvement.
Follow these steps to help you complete this assignment:
1. Look over and review your observations and notes from the DRDP assignment, and
yourECERS/CLASS observation assignment and the answers to your summary questions
in your papers.
2. Using the QRIS, evaluate the program on the following:
● Element I –Child outcomes and screening (DRDP)
● Element 4- Teacher Qualifications and Teacher-Child Interactions (CLASS)
● Element 6- Program Environment (ECERS)
3. For elements 2, 3, 5 and 7, choose how many points your school would get (this is your
choice, there is no right or wrong answer)
4. Based on the rating you gave them for the elements above and to the best of your
ability, give the school a Site Star Rating. You will need to justify the score you give them
with evidence.
5. Use the NAEYC Standards of Quality (10 components of a quality school) as well as any
other course literature to evaluate the school’s quality.
6. Identify the program’s strengths and areas of improvement.
7. Using all of the information you compiled from above, in narrative form, write a
summary of your program’s quality.
