Diagnostic Case Report Criteria


DIAGNOSTIC CASE REPORT CRITERIA:

Dear ED643 Students,

I'm sure that your students are grateful for all that you've done for them. As you continue to work closely with them with the various reading sessions (especially during next semester), they will READ with a more positive disposition. Keep up the instrumental work, and don't forget that you must include the following in your diagnostic case report before it can be approved:

1. For the interview with the child, it is not enough to list the child’s responses. You must also analyze the responses to describe what the data reveal about the child’s perceptions of him/herself as a reader and writer.

2. Determine the independent, instructional, and frustration levels on graded word lists, oral reading of narrative and expository, silent reading of oral and expository, as well as listening comprehension.

3. Compare these levels and analyze the data to describe the child as a reader in the conclusion of the report. Ensure that you also summarize the child as a writer in the conclusion. List and describe the recommended strategies for both reading and writing.

4. Provide an analysis of the miscues that the students made on the graded word lists and the passages. Read the section in the QRI-4 on how to analyze the miscues.

Do your best to include the aforementioned, so that you can prepare a quality Diagnostic Case Report to share with the parents. Good luck!

Best regards,
Dr. Rivera

All assessment is a perpetual work in progress.-- Linda Suske, Unknown , May 3, 2005 http://www.wku.edu/teaching/db/quotes/byassess.php

Assessments measure knowledge at a specific point in time. What we do with the data gained from the assessment guides us in creating progression.  Learning from one another through presentations and sharing experiences help enrich the learning and application of materials to help student progression.

    I agree that assessments are resourceful. It's up to us to use the data to meet the needs of our students. There's no doubt that learning from one another enhances instruction.

    Assessment is useful only when it is given and used according to its purpose. It becomes a very powerful vehicle for change when it is used for improvement and not criticism.

    Ted,

    Indeed, we must use assessment to improve student progress. Good luck in your assessment, as you measure the reading levels of your student and prepare appropriate literacy activities.

    Best regards,
    Dr. Rivera
