Monday, Dec. 19th department meeting will be changed from an all day meeting in Pocahontas to a small group office meeting beginning at 1:00p.m. (see schedule)
AEA Zone Coordinators, Jerry and Jeff invited me to present an overview of the online GOLD assessment system being used in our statewide preschool programs and an overview of AEPSi online. They were impressed and made the decision that each ECSE teacher should attempt to use the AEPSi with a couple of children. Plans have been finalized and license have been purchased and the system is waiting for you! More information and support will be provided at the 12.19 meeting.
Please use the following criteria to make good decisions about which children to place in the system. Is the child 25% delayed? Will the child be in the system for at least a year ?(the license for a child is for one year).
And remember, the DAYC may still be used for initial eligibility as it can be done quickly in the 45 day time line. The AEPSi would be good to use for ongoing assessment and decision making.
It's a good tool to use with those complicated kiddos that qualify in lots of areas, as the support staff can have access and use it too!
