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

One step....

This quote reminds me of how I eventually made my decision to take up a Masters degree. When I first started teaching, I decided to hold off obtaining a Masters because I wanted to put all my focus into teaching. I told myself that in a few years, I'll go back to school. Well, a few years turned into 12 years...needless to say, I was very apprehensive of going back to school after so long. Thankfully, I have great colleagues who persistently motivates and assures me that it's never too late and that I am capable of accomplishing my goal. All I need to do was to take that one step...one step into the direction I want to go, and I will be on my way. I am so thankful that I decided to pursue my goal of obtaining a Masters degree. I know that this journey will make me a better educator - hopefully, an eduactor who will be able to motivate children to take that one step into pursuing their dreams.

  1. It is always hard to take that "first" step. For me, the reason I took so long to start my master's was my children. I knew that it was time consuming, and I didn't want to lose focus. Now that they are older, I decided to get my master's degree. It's also to encourage them to strive for more. Higher education is essential to a better and brighter future.
