ECE 354 W2 Assessment & Intervention During Early Childhood D1
Chapter 3 of our textbook discusses several important aspects of standardized testing. One idea is the importance of reliability and validity in standardized tests. For this post, watch the following videos on test validity and reliability.
Then, imagine that your center or school is looking for an assessment instrument to measure reading ability.
