EARLY
CHILDHOOD ENVIRONMENT RATING SCALE, REVISED EDITION
By Thelma Harms, Richard M. Clifford, and Debby Cryer |
|
 A
thorough revision of the ECERS, designed to assess group programs for
children of preschool through kindergarten age, 2½
through
5. |
Scale
consists of 43 items organized into 7 subscales: · Space and Furnishings · Personal Care Routines · Language-Reasoning · Activities · Interactions · Program Structure · Parents and Staff |
The
revised ECERS contains inclusive and culturally sensitive indicators
for many items. Also, new items have been added on Interaction (staff-child,
child-child and discipline), Curriculum (nature/science and math/number)
Health & Safety and Parents & Staff. |
Featuring
a new spiral binding, the updated ECERS-R offers more practical assistance
in the form of an Expanded Scoresheet (which contains a worksheet) and
additional notes for clarification to improve accuracy in scoring. However
the items and indicators remain the same as in the ECERS-R. |
