Ccld 403

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and hoping somebody can help me, and if I can help anyone I will!!!
I've been studying my CCLD level 4 for a few months now, currently on module 3 and having a bit of a brain freeze, the question I;m really struggling with is........
K4P377 Explain your understanding of evidence-based practice and how it affects practice in your area of responsibility.
I know I really should know this answer but I'm really struggling, anyone have any ideas???
I've had modules 1 and 2 signed off so if anybody needs any help with either of them let me know, I'm only too happy to help!!!
The sooner I finish this course the better!!!
Thanks in advance

Hi I get brain freezes too, this course is a lot of work and the sooner I finish the better, I find the reflective bit difficult, think Ive reflected but get told its not enough.
Anyway for this bit I talked about observations in the setting how they need to be based on actual evidence and how we need to be aware of other cultures when observing, the influence on the observer eg children who are not so clean as others, gender eg boys who are more boisterous, etc and the effects of our own personal upbringing and views on the observations, what difference do observations make? reflect on what happens in your setting, is it of benefit? how can it be made better? etc that reflective bit I find the most difficult, I am doing K4D809 at the moment, just typing it all up nearly finished 403 but i expect i will be told ive not reflected enough!!!!!!

Thank you so much for that Brandy, that has helped so much!!
I'm not too bad at the reflective bit, it's getting started that I struggle with, once I know what I need to write about I think I waffle a bit too much!!:muted:
But anyway got 4 more questions to answer and I have completed 403! Thank you once again, if I can return the favour I will do.

Hi Brandy I am also working on KD809 and this will finish 403 for me too but I don't know where to start. I think I have been at it too long for today. Please help how do I set it out?

I used a performance evidence sheet and wrote about the following headings:
Provide a safe secure encouraging environment
Develop positive and consistent relationships (keyworker system etc)
Provide opportunities for children to assess and take risks and face challenges
Work within a framework for inclusion and anti discriminatory practice, meeting individual and group needs
Adapt your practice and model to others how support can be given to all children in your care including those with disabilities and special educational needs.
Provide programmes and activities to support intellectual development and learning covering:
Persistence
Attention and concentration
Exposure to different and varied concepts
Motivation
Challenging and stimulating learning and a love of learning
Provide programmes and activities to support communication language and literacy.
Verbal and non verbal communication strategies
Adapting strategies for use with children experiencing barriers to developing literacy.
Using ICT
Listening /watching/talking
Reading
Writing
Provide approriate resouces for learning.
Support frameworks for positive behaviour, including, modelling positive behaviour, rewarding positive behaviour, non confrontational techniques such as distraction, explanation, removal of children or items, removal of adult attention
Adapting strategies where learning is through an additional language, where there is a communication barrier in both multilingual and bilingual settings.

I wrote about what we do in the setting, how and why we do it.
thats basically how i laid mine out.
Ive finished completely now just got my certificates, still like looking at the forum though.
