Question 2

Based on a video sequence shown to you by your instructor, what cause for concern might you have about the child in question, how would you go about recording more information about the child (given that you would, in real life, have that opportunity), and what would you do with your results?
Note: Refer to the assessment rubric for this task. It will offer you the details of expectations and pointers to present a good assignment.

Accepted Answer

Based on the video sequence shown by my instructor, I have a cause for concern about the child's development. The child in question appears to have difficulty with fine motor skills, as they were struggling to hold and manipulate small objects. This could be indicative of a developmental delay or potential motor coordination issues.

To record more information about the child, I would first seek permission from the child's parents or guardians to conduct further observations and assessments. I would then use standardized assessment tools to evaluate the child's fine motor skills, such as the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales or the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency. I would also observe the child in different settings to see if the difficulty with fine motor skills is consistent across various activities. Additionally, I would gather information from the child's teachers or caregivers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the child's overall development.

Once I have collected all the necessary information, I would analyze the results to determine the extent of the child's difficulties with fine motor skills. I would then consult with other professionals, such as occupational therapists or developmental psychologists, to interpret the findings and develop a plan for intervention. This could involve providing the child with targeted activities and exercises to improve their fine motor skills, as well as working with the child's parents and teachers to create a supportive environment for the child. Overall, my goal would be to address the child's developmental concerns and provide them with the necessary support to thrive.
