Experience High-Quality Early Educational Interactions with the CLASS® Observational Tool
Effective teacher?student interactions are a primary ingredient of high-quality early educational experiences. The CLASS® observational tool allows schools to accurately assess classroom quality in K?3 classrooms based on crucial teacher?student interactions rather than solely the physical environment or a specific curriculum. This innovative tool has been proven through more than a decade of research and testing in over 3,000 classrooms, establishing its high validity and reliability.
The CLASS tool focuses on three vital domains of teacher-student interaction:
- Emotional Support
- Classroom Organization
- Instructional Support
Designed to address a school?s most urgent needs, the CLASS tool aids in accountability efforts, professional development, program planning, and research. By establishing an accurate picture of the classroom through 30-minute cycles of observation and scoring, repeated up to 6 times over 3 hours, the tool effectively pinpoints areas for improvement, allowing programs to choose effective interventions for identified trouble spots.
This comprehensive manual includes:
- Detailed descriptions of the 10 CLASS dimensions
- Administration procedures
- A technical appendix
Additionally, one copy of the CLASS® Dimensions Overview, a tri-fold reference sheet for observers, is included with the manual to enhance usability and understanding.
The CLASS user?s guide is an integral part of the CLASS system, the bestselling classroom observational tool that measures interactions between children and teachers?a crucial aspect of high-quality early educational experiences. With versions tailored for infant, toddler, pre-K (available in both English and Spanish), and K?3 classrooms, this reliable and valid CLASS tool establishes an accurate picture of the classroom through brief, repeated observation and scoring cycles.
