The Development Profile report shows how many children have acquired capabilities in a scale for a given developmental area. All the selected scale’s capabilities are listed on this report. The count and/or percentage of children who have learned each capability. Also displayed are number of the children who are ready now, will be ready soon, or will be ready later to learn each capability for the selected scale.
The Development Profile report is often used by administrators to gain information about what children currently know; and to evaluate the extent to which teacher observations are at the level of credibility expected by the program. This report can be helpful in viewing the patterns of teacher observations and therefore their credibility. For example, since the Galileo Scales are comprised of empirically sequenced capabilities within a Knowledge Area reflecting the construction of knowledge, the capabilities occurring earlier in the sequence would generally be acquired before those that are of greater difficulty. When the results reflect this pattern, the level of confidence in observer credibility is increased.
