Analyse information to inform learning
Summative assessment 1
Question 1 Explanation about the observer might influence interaction and behaviour
An observer can influence interaction and behaviours because they always consider the
behaviours of other. They effectively analyse the situation and responds to another person
(Alhatmi, 2011). An observer have ability to analyse and observe the person of another one so as
they can easily analyse the situation and obtain the results and conclusion. An observer have
different kind of the quality and skills to interact with the people so they have quality to
influence the behaviour of another person.
Question 2 Describe the quality area that discusses approved learning framework
The national quality standard is a key aspect of the national quality framework and sets a high ,
national benchmark for early childhood education and care (Bernard, 2013). The major objective
of this national quality standard is to deliver the appropriate care and education to the children so
as they can improve their level and health. On the other hand approved learning frameworks is a
framework named in the national regulations. There are two national regulatory frameworks such
as belonging , being and becoming, my time , my place.
Question 3 Explanation about the developmental norms are and how they are used
Developmental norms are that standards by which development and progress of the children can
measure in an effective manner (Brand, 2012). With help of this norm, any health care
organisation can easily analyse the progress and development of the children and according to
the situation right and appropriate service and care can provided by the health care experts. This
assist to the teachers to judge the appropriateness of certain types of curriculum for the children
of certain ages and development levels.
Question 4 Information that might useful to an educator if working with children from other
culture
While any health care practitioner interact with other cultures children then they must have
knowledge about the other culture and region (Clark, 2011). It is very important for the health
care practitioner in order to take acre of the children who came from other country. In order to
take care of other culture children, child care worker should have knowledge about the different
culture and they also must have knowledge about their languages.

Question 5 Organisational standard, policies and procedures related to collecting information
about the children
IN order to collect the information about the children care, there should be a specific policy,
practices and standard through which employees can easily collect the information about the
children background, culture, language, health issue, habits etc. With help of the information
about the children, health care practitioner and educator can easily identify and analyse the
condition and situation of the children (Emerson and et.al., 2012). In an organisation there
should be a specific policies, standard and procedure related to collecting information about the
children so as they can easily collect about the children habits, background , culture etc.
Question 6 Identification about the regulatory legislative requirement of the child care industry
According to the children service standard 2009, government have implied the rule to deliver
effective health care services to the children so as they can improve their issue (Drenning, 2006).
The national quality standard sets a new national benchmark for the quality of education and care
services. The education and care service approved under the national quality framework will
assessed rated against each of the seven quality area of the national quality standards and
national regulation. As per the child care act 1991 and children act 2001, health care practitioner
and child care taker , teacher have to provide the effective care services and education to the
children so as they can improve their level.
Question 7 Selection about the one of the approved learning framework and discussion about its
elements
Approved learning frameworks is a framework named in the national regulations. There are two
national regulatory frameworks such as belonging , being and becoming, my time , my place. In
the context of belonging, being and becoming, it guides educator to develop quality programs for
young children (Hudson,2002). It also describes the early childhood pedagogy (principles and
practice) and the outcomes that provide goals for young children's learning.
Question 8 Code of ethics is and describes its significance in a child care setting
In the child care setting, ethics is significant aspect that help in proving effective care to the
children. One of the major ethic is related to the discrimination. The health care practitioner
should not discriminate with any children in order to deliver the care services in the health care
setting. They should treat all children in equal manner and they should provide equal facilities
and services to them so as they can improve their health issue in an effective manner. Another
2

major ethic is related to the right care services and medicines (Leathard, 2004). All health care
practitioner should deliver the right and appropriate care services and medicines to the children
so as they can improve their health.
Question 9 Work with collaboratively with families, communities and other educators
An educator can work collaborative with families, communities and other educator in effective
manner because they have knowledge and effective understanding handling the people , families
and relatives at the workplace (MacDonald, 2005). With the families, communities and other
educator they can effectively maintain an understanding and relation so as they can collectively
work with them. Furthermore, they have effective knowledge and idea to deal with the different
people. With help of their effective knowledge, understanding and idea, they can collectively
work together and conclude the effective solution of the problem and design effective planning.
Design and implement the curriculum to foster children learning and
development
Summative Assessment 1
1. The communication that children must able to conduct at age of four
The things that Children at the age of Four must able to do in relation to linguistic development
include increasing vocabulary and development of understanding about basic grammar rules. The
children at the age of four must be able to identify and spell basic emotion such as happy, angry.
Sad etc. The child must be able to facilitate small negotiation with other people or children. The
child who belongs to age of four should able to use some complex sentences when
communicating with other. Such complex word includes because, so, if etc. (Schaufeli,Maslach
and Marek, eds., 2017)
2. Information that can be gathered about children and their parents
In enrolment procedures the parents of the child required to provide various information
such as name of the child, detail address, the detail of the people those who can pick child after
the completion of schools hours, complete data about the physical heath or medical information
about child, it also involves immunisation states. The information about the child needs,
preferences, interest etc. The parent qualification, family background, name of family members,
Whether the children spend time with people other than their family, Whether the child family
are involved in community, country in which child was born , language etc.
3

3. Applied law system
The national quality framework that works under an applied legal system that consists of
laws or regulation related to educational as well as care services. This framework is applied to
the childcare institution that provides long time child care services. It is also applicable to family
day care, outside school hour care, preschool or Kinder garden in Australia.
Applied law is referred to the legislation, regulations and policies that are actually
implemented in Australia. The national quality framework function under the governance of
applied legislative system. The main objective of this law system is to establish set of national
standards for institution that provides services related to education and care to children's (Gale,
Schröder, and Gilbert,2017)
5. Six significant principles that apply across all seven areas of national quality framework
The six principles that are implied to all seven quality areas of national quality
framework these are:
The first principle provided by national quality framework states that the rights of the
children are paramount. The other principle states that every child is successful, competent,
skilled, talented and have high potential of learning. The principles provided by national quality
framework focus on diversity, inclusions and Equity. It also includes providing value aboriginal
and people or children belonging to different culture. These rules or standards also defines the
role of parents in providing care as well as support to children. Principle involves high
expectation from educator as well as services provider related to providing quality education and
effective as well as suitable care to children.
6. Explaining the meaning of EYLF
The term EYLF stands for Early years learning framework is referred to as early
childhood Curriculum model that assist early childhood teacher or educator in development of
quality and planning for education programme related to early childhood development.
Belonging is the elements that help children in knowing from the place and identifying the
people they belong. Belongingness is considered as inbuilt to human existence. Belongingness
defines the children interdependence with other people surrounding them. This factor has been
judged in terms of relationship that provide children their identities.
4

Becoming includes identities, understanding level, knowledge, capacities, skills that is
posses by children. Becoming is defined as the procedure of frequent and important change that
may happen in early age of childhood.
Being helps individual in identifying the importance of children lives. This process is
concerned with knowing themselves, developing and maintaining relationship with other
(Korthagen, 2017)
7. The things that are to be considered when evaluating the internal environment
The internal environment in designing the room for early childhood setting develop
atmosphere that is motivational, welcoming, inspiring and engaging. This environment has great
importance for children as it allows them to develop various skills, interest. It also provides them
opportunity to become more confident and independent learners. The important factors that are
considered to be when evaluating the internal environment are:
Furniture and material- When designing the room for providing the education to children,
Furniture and material are the two significant things that are to be considered.
Wall Displays-The another consideration is related to decoration of the wall. This consideration
sis things that can be displayed on the wall in order to create effective learning and inspiring
environment for children.
Interest Areas-The major concern is related to designing a positive learning environment on the
basis of interest areas of children (Trorey, 2017)
8. The way feedback can be gathered from children
Teacher Evaluation programme is the method for gathering feedback from student. The
other technique includes facilitating a written survey, Formulating as well as circulating
questionnaire, communicating with children etc.
Reason for seeking feedback from children are:
It helps educator in motivating children to increase their participation in learning activities.
Feedback assist educator in identifying the areas of improvement and designing effective
learning lessons.
It also provides tutor an opportunity to develop understanding about experience gained by
students.
5

Feedback also allows them to develop and maintain healthy relationship with children and
provide them quality education. It also enables educator to identify the way for enhancing
learning environment and improving management of classroom.
The children also gets an opportunity to share their problems, value, belief and knowledge with
their educator or other children (Gladding,2017.)
Designing and Implementing the curriculum to foster children's learning and development
1.
As awareness of Inclusion
and belongingness is
important in creating
supportive, collaborative
learning environment. The
shared thinking and
collaborate thinking can be
encouraged by developing
supportive learning
environment. As this types
of surrounding helps
children to learn to provide
values to people. It can
also encourage or provides
children an opportunity to
facilitate conversation in
group. This is significant
for ensuring effective
classroom setting and also
essential for children
development.
It is very essential for
parents to involve their
children in decision
The effective day care
scheme and policies
helps services provider
to ensure participation
of families in cultural
programmes. The other
activities that ensure
effective participation
of families belonging
to different culture
background include
designing pamphlets,
orientation, and
promotion of linguistic
and cultural diversity
among families and
children.
2. It is very essential for
educator to make
children lean about
respecting and
appreciating the natural
environment. The
teacher can utilise
space for assist
children to analyse
difference between
internal and external
environment. The
educators can
encourage children to
plant trees and provide
them care. When
possible it is required
by teacher to utilise
natural material to
develop play areas.
6

making process. As
this activity will allow
both parents and
children to develop
understanding about
each other. It will also
provide parents an
opportunity to identify
the various issues or
problems that has been
faced by their child
and providing them
with effective
solutions. When the
children problems are
solved it allows them
to feel motivated and
allow them to develop
confidence in them. It
also provides children
a chance to become
interdependent
(Abbott, 2014.)
There are various methods
that can be used by
institution for consulting
parents about curriculum
design these are
facilitating survey,
7

research, developing and
circulating questionnaire,
communicating with
parents and children etc.
Service philosophies
related to the childcare
defines the way services
stakeholders think about
children, early childhood
and the way children learn
and develop understanding
about various facts.
Services philosophies is
defined as the combination
of values, expectation and
beliefs related to the
present management
system, educators and
families that belong to
service sector.
3. The personal
information such child
name, hobbies ,
interest areas etc. are
collected from the
children. The various
information collected
from the students or
children assist educator
8

in analysing the
behaviour of child,
identifying their
learning needs,
providing them
effective as well as
suitable education and
care. It also allows
educator top develop
effective strategies and
policies for ensuring
the quality of
education has been
provided to children.
4. There are generally
five areas of
development these are
physical, emotional
and social. Some other
field of development
are approaches top
learning,
communication,
cognitive process and
communication. The
other things that v\can
be improved include
analytical as well as
research abilities,
9

development of
flexibility as well as
adaptability,
interpersonal skills,
capacity to make
effective and suitable
decision etc. Percentile
charts is the effective
tool that can be used to
address the area of
development. This
method is used by
educator for comparing
a child growth as well
as weight measurement
with those of other
child that belongs to
same age group.
Holistic learning is the
knowledge gaining procedure
that is dependent on
development of child. When
providing this type of learning
the educator is required to
ensure that children are
gaining knowledge from
concepts and establishing the
own time. The educators or
teachers that provides such
10

types of learning are aware
about the fact that all the
children are strong, posses
some competencies and have
high potential of learning.
Such people have
understanding that children
also posses creative skills and
they are independent thinker.
Children have the capability to
solve their own problems, they
can learn things when playing
(Walker, 2017) Importance of
Holistic learning
It provides educator or
services provider an
opportunity to develop
understanding about the
children, childhood and early
childhood development
procedure. Holistic learning
enables service provider to
ensure that theoretical or
administrative framework are
useful and are not used for
diving children into small
groups that have great effect
on children development and
influence on child behaviour.
11

1. When monitoring the
children development
process it is very
essential for the
educator to consider
various factors like
interaction as this the
important element to
monitor children
development. When
facilitating
communication with
the child it assists
educator in analysing
the knowledge gain by
child and identifying
the further steps that
are required to be
taken in order to
support child in
learning process. The
other methods that can
be used by service
provider for
monitoring the child
development include
conducting discussion
with parents,
facilitating
observation, sharing
12

information with heath
vistor and seeking
advise or suggestion
from experts.
2. Learning style is the
effective way or
method through which
children can learn in
effective as well as
systematic manner.
There are various types
of learning styles that
can be used by child
for increasing their
knowledge and
development of
various skills as well
as competencies.
Every child has
different learning style
and have high or low
learning capacity. The
children with auditory
learning style has high
potential to learn
things through
listening. Physical
learner, The child that
adopt this learning
style believes in
learning things by
13

using their senses such
as touching, moving
body etc. Visual
learner , the children
with this type of
learning style gain
knowledge just by
observing activities
surrounding them
(Raider-Roth, 2017.)
3. The physical
environment is such a
way that promotes self
learning and direction
by the children. The
classroom arrangement
should be such that it
should meet or fulfil
the learning needs of
children. Arranging the
physical environment
effective method for
enhancing learning
environment and
preventing issues
related to the
behaviour. The room
are decorated in
attractive manner that
provides children
motivation to facilitate
14

learning process.
4. Developing or
organizing learning
environment in the
manner that promotes
small
group[ discussion or
interaction and
designing play
exercises. The other
technique is that the
educator can scaffold
children skills to
coordinate with others
in dramatic play,
introducing lunch
breaks, etc. During the
meal time the teacher
can sit with students
and children and
facilitate
communication,
educator can
participate in children's
play utilising child
cues to provide
guidance related to
their level and type of
involvement.
5. The term co
construction indicates
15

the involvement or
participation of
educator as well as
children with each
other. Co construction
occurs when educator
and children works
together. Co
construction is a
unique approach which
has focus on
collaborative or
partnership working.
The educator can do
this by developing
effective learning
environment and
providing learning
opportunities to
children. The children
and teacher can do this
by taking initiative to
develop understanding
about each other and
working together.
6. The disposition of
learning refers the
enthusiasm in children
related to learning. It
has been analysed that
children are more
16

enthusiastic when they
initiate as well as
participate in
investigations,
interactions and play.
When the children are
exited , it can easily
identify through their
behaviour. If the
children are interested
in learning they will
ask questions, share
their problems and can
often present that they
are committed and
focussed on achieving
learning goals.
Children create
dispositions for
learning like curiosity,
cooperation, creativity,
enthusiasm,
persistence,
commitment and
confidence.
Facilitating
Discussion,
communication,
supporting and helping
each other etc. are the
some activities that can
17

help in motivating
children. Scaffolding is
another technique that
can be used by
educator for inspiring
children to learn
(Coldwell, 2017)
7. Communicating with
children, involving
them in decision
making process,
providing them open
communication
channel are some
factors that can support
educator to ensure that
children have voice.
Experiences of
relationship and
involvement in
communities
contribute to children's
belonging, becoming
and being. Consulting
with children is the
significant factor that
will help educator in
identifying the
knowledge that has
been gained by child.
8. There are several ways
18

of reflecting and it is
the continuous
procedure that include
listening, observing,
thinking deeply about
the knowledge gained
through learning
process and utilising
such information for
informing teaching
practices and providing
effective as well as
suitable response. The
reflection procedure
include identifying a
problem, Collecting
evidence, seeking
advice from
surrounding people,
Reflecting., analysing,
Sharing the
experience, benefits,
personal perception
about particular field,
formulating plan based
on learning for
enhancing or
improving practices in
the future, making
improvement in
practices and
19

monitoring the changes
(Martin,2017)
9. Teacher Evaluation
programme is the
method for gathering
feedback from student.
The other technique
includes facilitating a
written survey,
Formulating as well as
circulating
questionnaire,
communicating with
children etc.
Professional critical
reflection is the
significant tool for
facilitating and
ensuring improvement
in teaching practices,
using reflection as the
base for making
discussion with parents
and children, building
a culture of
professional enquiry
etc (Taylor,2017)
10. The Early years
learning Framework
contributes to realising
20

the Council of
Australian legal
authority vision to
provide quality
education and care to
children. It also
provides various
services such as
Preschool,
kindergarten,
playgroup, crèches
early intervention
setting and similar
services (Hardingham,
2017)
