Symposia Advancing Comprehensive Early Childhood Intervention S1.03 Innovations in the Use of Virtual & In-Vivo Authentic Assessment for Early Childhood Intervention Purposes Symposium Organizer: Kathleen Hebbeler (USA) Affiliation : SRI International Authentic assessment is widely regarded as a best practice in early childhood intervention (ECI), yet it remains underutilized. Program leaders and practitioners need to know more about the importance and feasibility of using authentic assessment for a variety of purposes. This session profiles innovations in the use of authentic assessment through four studies: an international social validity study on authentic assessment for ECI, using curriculum-based scales for eligibility determination in ECI, using the ICF-CY and authentic assessment for individualized programming in Portugal, and assessing young children with disabilities virtually with authentic scales and practices in the US.
