Direct Observation. An evaluation shall not be completed unless it is based on a direct observation.
Direct Observation. Evaluations shall be made based primarily 10 upon the direct observation and knowledge of the evaluator. The evaluation 11 is to be completed by the supervisor who is responsible for the work of the 12 employee; however, the responsibility shall be shared with the 13 Superintendent or his/her designee. Management maintains the right to 14 evaluate based on multiple unscheduled observations. 15 16 PARAPROFESSIONALS: An evaluation shall not be completed unless 17 there has been at least one direct observation. A date and approximate time 18 of at least one direct observation will be noted on the evaluation. 19
Direct Observation. Actual observation of the work being performed. This procedure is very costly and is not based in the principles of performance based service Contracting. However, this does provide for analysis of processes which may lead to reduced QA functions in the future once confidence is gained in the Contractor’s performance.
Direct Observation. A beneficiary must be continuously under direct visual and auditory observation by staff members during any use of restraints or interventions.
Direct Observation. Direct observation is another method for assessing internalizing problems in youth, and one of the main tools used for the assessment of behavioral, social, and emotional problems in children and adolescents within the school setting (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2014). Direct observation often requires more time and effort than other methods of assessment; however, it is important for objectively assessing behavior (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2014; Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2014). With direct observation, the evaluator does not have to rely on retroactive reports from various informants; rather, the evaluator can observe the behavior directly and, when using a structured observation measure with behavioral definitions, obtain a more objective measurement of the behavior. For example, per the observable behaviors listed in the DSM-5 (APA, 2013), assessors may observe anxious individuals having trouble separating from their parents; failing to speak in social situations; being avoidant of specific objects, situations, or social interactions; experiencing panic attacks; and/or having problematic/irritable behavior. Additionally, individuals with depressive symptoms may appear tearful or sad, have diminished interest or pleasure in most activities, present with psychomotor agitation or retardation, or show signs of a diminished ability to think or concentrate (APA, 2013). Although direct observation has the potential of being a more objective way to measure behavior, the accuracy, validity, and reliability of observational data may not be adequately established (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2013). These issues can be due to definitions of the behavior being too broad or too narrow, observer drift (i.e., observers gradually drift from original definitions of behavior), differences in observer training and reliability, observer reactivity, situational specificity (i.e., the child may behave differently across environments), and/or lack of comparison data (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2013). Further, internalizing disorders can be difficult to detect through external observation (Merrell, 2008), as many of the more prominent internal symptoms may be accessible only to the affected individual.
Direct Observation. In the development of this project I will apply the technique of the simple direct observation that allows me inspecting the physical space in which the students and the audiovisual resources are involved with those that it counts the population from “Xxxx Xxxxxxx” Private School N° 1, Seventh Grade students of Basic Education for the application of the knowledge in their English classes.
Direct Observation. For a significant learning it is required of methodology and techniques that facilitate us the application of the knowledge. For such a reason there are here, some of the techniques that will contribute in the gathering of the necessary information for the development of this project. The Scientific Observation consists on the systematic perception and directed to capture the most significant aspects in the objects, facts, social realities and people in the context where they are usually developed. In the development of this project we will apply the technique of the simple direct observation that allows us to inspect the physical space in which the students and the audiovisual resources are unwrapped with those that it counts Dr. Xxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx High School for the application of the knowledge in their English classes.
Direct Observation. The observation technique is applied because it is the direct information that we obtain in the classrooms where the students participate and share their activities to be able to verify the difficulty that they present in the learning of technical vocabulary and realization of exercises. This information is necessary to analyze and to search for the solution of the problem. To use the technique of the observation we will apply like instrument an observation record designed exclusively for this purpose.
Direct Observation. The techniques to follow in this project are: This facilitate us the realization of a better analysis and interpretation of the characteristics that describe the behavior of the variables presently investigation topic.
