Three insights gain from Developing
Child:
1.
Zambian Early Childhood Development implemented comprehensive
assessment tool was used to determine the effects of ongoing anti-malaria on children’s
development (developing child, 2012). The initiative measured anti-malaria's impact. The children were assessed in all areas of development.
2.
It also had positive effects on children’s
health. The mortality rate for children under age 5 declined. The percentage of
children under age 5 with fever caused by malaria dropped.
3.
Due to
language barriers across Zambian, the assessment presented challenges of fairness
in being culturally appropriate and addressing the academic gap appropriately.
Audrey- The issues with the language barrier caught me off guard, I know we deal with that here and I have discussed that in many classes especially when it pertains to assessments. Sometimes children understand more than we know due to language barriers but I am glad that they are aware of it being an issue.
