Description

This project will fully develop an early childhood holistic assessment platform that combines observation and direct (game-based) tools to assess the school readiness of individual children. This approach will reduce the assessment burden for teachers and provide usable data to improve instruction in real-time. The games are intended for low-stakes assessment – children interact with the adaptive, touchscreen games for 5 minutes per week—and teachers use the automatically generated reports to adjust instruction.
