Included in this module are infant observation videos. Choose one of the videos provided and complete the observation assignment.
You will be observing infants ages (6mo. to 24 months). For the observational report you will complete it in two parts.
Part 1- As you are observing the child in your selected video you will take observation notes about his/her development in all domains (Biosocial, Cognitive and Psychosocial Development). During your observation, you will complete a running record of everything you see and or hear the child doing.
Follow the guidelines below for an accurate and objective observation
Record only facts
Record every detail without omitting anything.
Use action words (verbs) whenever possible
Record only what you see or hear. Be careful to avoid recording something that did not occur.
The purpose of this observation is to help you learn more about normal developmental differences of children of various ages as you watch them interact with other children and adults. You should focus extensively on one child in video.
