I have attached two documents by Dr Barbara Carl, Penn State University: the CCIS – Child Caregiver Interaction Scale and a powerpoint presentation regarding the tool. This tool is a wonderful example of an effective and efficient observation tool to measure early care and education program quality. I would recommend state administrators to take a look at it as they develop their tool boxes for measuring quality in their respective states. Dr Carl’s contact information is at the end of the powerpoint presentation.
