Depending on the child’s age, the nature of the child’s special needs, and state policy, one of those sources might need to be an assessment that is norm-referenced to produce a score that provides, for example, a percent delay or standard deviations below the mean. Some norm-referenced tools require a trained practitioner to administer structured items directly to the child using a specific script and strict procedures. When these tools are not administered according to the required procedures , the resulting scores should be suspect. Because of the strict administration requirements, these kinds of tools are not well suited for situations where the practitioner and the child and parent cannot meet in person.  \nThere are, however, other norm-referenced assessments that rely on the parent or caregiver as the source of information about the child’s behavior and what the child knows and can do. There also are tools that use observation. Depending on what needs to be observed, the practitioner might be able to use videoconferencing or videos created by the parent to observe the child. Tools that do not require a practitioner to be present with the child are better suited for remote administration.  \nThe contents of this tool and guidance were developed under grants from the U.S. Department of Education,\\#H373Z190002 and \\#H326P170001 . However, those contents do not necessarily represent the policy of the U.S. Department of Education, and you should not assume endorsement by the Federal Government. Project Officers: Meredith Miceli, Amy Bae, and Julia Martin Eile.  \nPurpose  \nThis list of tools was compiled to assist states and programs with identifying assessments that can be administered when the assessor cannot be in the room with the child. We encourage those using this resource to review the recent presentations about applying assessment principles to evaluation for eligibility remotely for Part C and Part B Preschool.  \nWhat is Included  \nThe table includes norm-referenced tools for children birth through five years old with one or more domains that can be administered by observation, interview, and/or parent/caregiver checklist. The table provides a link to the website where the tool can be obtained, information about the age range of the tool, the name of domains or content areas that have potential to be gathered remotely, the administration approach, language translations available, and additional details about scoring, classifications, or use.  \nDisclaimer  \nThe information in the table was gathered from publisher websites and online reviews. The authors do not have experience administering all of the assessment tools. For some assessments, it was difficult to discern exactly how they were administered without purchasing them. The inclusion of a tool on the table does not constitute endorsement or indicate any evaluation about the tool’s validity or reliability. Users are encouraged to thoroughly investigate any assessment tools before adoption or use.  \nFeedback Requested  \nWe welcome feedback from individuals who have used these assessments, especially if the information about the tools in the table is incomplete or inaccurate. If you know of another tool that should be included, please send the name and publisher. Send any feedback or additional information to [Haidee.Bernstein@sri.com](Haidee.Bernstein@sri.com) and put “Assessment” in the subject line.
