PART 1

Self-Evaluation of Preparedness to Meet and Apply Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs)

Rationale. The rationale for this assignment is to help you evaluate your preparedness to meet and apply the lessons and skills from the Course Learning Outcomes from this course.
Part of being an educational professional is the ability to do a self-evaluation of your professional skills and preparedness. At one point in your career, you will more than likely be asked to do a self-evaluation of your skills and knowledge in your performance and field by your preschool director, principal, or your boss. Self-evaluation leads to increased learning and self-confidence.
This course has been created with five Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) to help prepare you as an early childhood education professional to do work in the field.

CLO #1. Identify health, safety, and environmental risks in early care and education programs.

CLO #2. Design strategies to maximize the mental and physical health of children and adults in early care and education programs in accordance with culturally, linguistically, and developmentally sound practice.

CLO #3. Recall regulations, standards, policies, and procedures related to health, safety, and nutrition in early childhood settings.
CLO #4. Plan nutritious meals and snacks based on the nutritional needs of children of various ages.
CLO #5. Describe strategies for collaboration with families and the community in support of healthy and safe environments for children.
Overview. In this final assignment, you willsubmit a report on a self-evaluation of your:
level of preparation for meeting the goals of these CLOs
effort in completing lessons to learn these CLOs
examples of how you will apply the skills you learned from these CLOs in your own early childhood environment to demonstrate your mastery of the CLOs
self-confidence for mastering these CLOs
Method. Submit a written report on your self-evaluation of your preparedness to meet and apply the Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) from this course.
