The root of the word assessment is assidere, which means “to sit beside and get to know.”
Authentic Assessment

What is the AEPS• It is a comprehensive system that ties
together assessment, goal development, intervention, and ongoing monitoring and evaluation.
![Page 10: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
It is • Criterion-referenced• Curriculum-based • Domain Specific• Developmental• Can be used to corroborate eligibility
decisions• Programmatic: can help you determine
priority goal areas and focus your interventions

“One mark of excellent teachers is the frequency with which they evaluate and change children’s instructional programs continually adapting them to meet the needs of each child.”
Bailey and Wolery, 1992
![Page 16: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
FIDELITYEvidence is needed that an assessment such as a CBA [AEPS] is administered, summarized, interpreted, and used in the way that it was designed, intended and validated.

• Child consistently performs the item as specified in the criterion
• Child performs the item independently• Behavior is a functional part of the child’s repertoire• Child uses the skill across time, materials, settings, and
people
2 Consistently
meets criterion
• Child does not consistently perform the item as specified in the criterion• Child performs the item with assistance• Child does not perform all components of the item or does not meet all
aspects of the specified criterion (i.e., the behavior is emerging• Child performs the item only under specific situations or conditions (i.e.,
with certain people or in certain settings)
1 Inconsistently
meets criterion
• Child does not perform the item as specified in the criterion when given repeated opportunities or assistance or when modifications and adaptations are made.
• Child was not observed performing the item because it is not expected based on knowledge of development (e.g., the child’s chronological age is 6 months and he or she would not be expected to perform such items as categorizing similar objects, copying simple shapes, or walking up and down stairs)

Scoring with Fidelity …. It’s not just a 0, 1, 2
![Page 22: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Use of Notes and Comments to enhance your assessment data
• A = assistance provided (1 or 0)• B = behavior interfered (1 or 0)• D = direct test (2, 1, 0)• M = modification/adaptations (2, 1, 0)• Q = quality of performance (2, 1)• R = report (2, 1, 0)
![Page 23: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
A
• Assistance Provided:• When a child is provided some form of assistance, an “A”
should be noted in the space next to the performance score box. If assistance is provided, then the only scores allowed are 1 and 0 because a score of 2 indicates full independent performance.
• Assistance includes any direct verbal or physical prompt, cue or model that assists the child in initiating or performing the desired behavior.
B
• Behavior Interfered• At times a child’s behavior may interfere with the
demonstration of the desired skill. In such cases, the item may be scored 1 or 0 with a “B” noted next to the performance score.
• This note indicates that the child may have the skill, but disruptive or noncompliant behavior interfered with its demonstration.
From: Bricker, D. (2002). Assessment, evaluation, and programming system for infants and children. Baltimore: Paul H. Brookes Publishing Co.
![Page 24: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
D• Direct Test:• When the examiner directly elicits a behavior, a “D” is noted
next to the performance score and the guidelines for determining the score for “Direct Test” are followed.
M
• Modification/Adaptation:• At times, an examiner may need to modify the stated criteria
(e.g., rate or mode of response) or adapt the environment/materials (e.g., adaptive equipment is necessary) to asses children with sensory or motor disabilities.
• When modifications are made in gathering child performance information, an “M” is noted next to the performance score and a 2, 1, or 0 is used.
From: Bricker, D. (2002). Assessment, evaluation, and programming system for infants and children. Baltimore: Paul H. Brookes Publishing Co.
![Page 25: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Q
• Quality of Performance:• At times, a child is able to perform a skill independently,
but the team feels the quality of the performance hinders the ability to meet criteria. At other times, a child is able to meet or partially meet the criteria, but the team wishes to continue strengthening the quality of performance.
• When the quality of the performance is in question, teams are encouraged to use a “Q” in the notes accompanied by a score of 2 or 1.
From: Bricker, D. (2002). Assessment, evaluation, and programming system for infants and children. Baltimore: Paul H. Brookes Publishing Co.
![Page 26: Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children (AEPS™)-AEPSi Part 1 KDEC: 2013 Nancy Miller, M.Ed., OTR/L Stephanie Parks, Ph.D.,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649cd65503460f9499e2bf/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
R
• Report:• When an item is assessed by report, an “R” is noted next to the
performance score. Report is used under one of three conditions:• When assessment information is collected by another person or
documented source (e.g. written evaluation), the item is scored 2, 1, or 0, and an “R” is noted.
• When the item is judged inappropriate because it assesses a primitive or developmentally easier response (e.g., sucking on a nipple when the child is able to drink from a cup), the item is scored 2 and an R is noted.
• When the item is judged inappropriate because it is too advanced or beyond the child’s developmental level (e.g., walking when the child is unable to stand), the item is scored 0 and an “R” is noted.

Team Discussions
• What do these scores mean to you?• Consistently/Inconsistently
• The power of the Notes section• With assistance• Modifications/Adaptations
• Team use of the Comment Section• Under what conditions/strategies etc.
• Team responsibilities discussion

Don’t forget the Family Report• 2 Levels (birth to three and three to six)• 2 sections
• Family Routines • Often done through
conversation/interview• Family Observations
• Scored: Yes, Sometimes, Not Yet

Consider using the second section of the Family Report with Community and Daycare Providers since the skills parallel the AEPS CODRF across the developmental domains.

Assessment Activity Plans
• AEPS comes with 12 pre-written activities to assess a variety of children across developmental areas (see Volume 2)
• OR you can create your own that parallel existing planned activities or those provided in the AEPS.

Reasons why CBAs are not implemented with fidelity
• Teachers may find the actual implementation of a CBA to be overwhelming (particularly in classrooms where large amounts of data have to be collected on many children).
• Sometimes teachers lack the training or support to administer the CBA. (teachers may become frustrated and implement the assessment with low fidelity)

• REMEDIES:• use the authentic assessment
fidelity measure by Grisham-Brown and colleagues (2008)
• develop a fidelity measure that relates to procedures of the assessment being used by your program
