Assessing children's learning dispositions involves:
Observation: Observe children's behaviour, interactions, and engagement in learning experiences, looking for evidence of dispositions such as curiosity, persistence, and creativity (Carr & Lee, 2012).
Documentation: Collect examples of children's work, photographs, and anecdotal records that demonstrate their dispositions in action (Katz, 1993).
Reflection: Engage in ongoing reflection and discussion with colleagues and families about children's dispositional learning, using the evidence gathered through observation and documentation (Helm & Katz, 2016).
By using a range of assessment strategies, educators can gain a holistic understanding of children's learning dispositions and use this information to support their ongoing growth and development.
