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 Children Can Learn

I love this saying! ? ALL CHILDREN CAN LEARN.  Although, they might not learn in the same way or at the same time as everyone else, they learn in their own way.  It reminds me of why I wanted to become a teacher in the first place.  I wanted to make a difference in a child's life but now I'm realizing that they made a difference in my life.  I thought about all this after my session with my student today.  Even though he was exhausted from staying up late the night before he still wanted to come to the session.  He said he cannot wait till the assessments were over so we can do the fun stuff like the learning activities so he could learn.  He said he can do better because I can teach him good.  Aww... moments like this made me realize how much of a difference he's made in my life and hopefully I make in his.  I'll just believe that all children can learn and it will all work out somehow.

  1. Steph,

    Well said! I concur that all students can learn, as challenging as it may seem at times. We also learn from our students, and that is part of the beauty of teaching. You truly possess the passion to make a difference. Kudos to you, and your student is lucky to have you as a tutor. Keep up the great work!

    Best regards,
    Dr. Rivera
