Making Learning visible...
Documentation shows children that their work is valued, makes parents aware of class learning experiences, and allows teachers to assess both their teaching and the children's learning.
It shows the students, teachers and parents where they are on their learning journey and where they are going.
Documentation brings educators together to reflect upon their teaching practices. This dialogue helps develop best practices in educators; looking back upon what methods and ideas were successful and deciding which ones need further development and thought.
Documentation is used as a tool by teachers to reflect upon and interpret children's progress to determine what each child needs. Based on this analysis, the educator can design learning experiences that provide a scaffold to new learning.
