Featuring a new spiral binding, the updated ECERS-R (Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale-Revised Edition) offers more practical assistance in the form of an Expanded Score Sheet (which contains a worksheet), and additional notes for clarification to improve accuracy in scoring. However, the items and indicators remain the same as in the original ECERS-R.
I think this is a fine tool to help make your classroom better and give you something to work with. It's not perfect with somethings just being unrealistic, if you are being honest. The fact that this tool was so handy shoved down our throats in the first 4 years I was an ECE, kind of makes me cringe thinking about it. There is an updated version called ECCERS 3 now.
This is the need to know information on the updated ECERS. There are differences from the older model: a lot more on interaction! Hopefully, my teaching will improve with this information.
This is a important book for child care. It helps a lot when rating facilities for different things. This also helped me pass on one of my major assignments.
