Mermaid0203 is on a distinguished road
I have a question Longitudinal study observations.. 😫

Firstly hello!

I am currently studying for my level 3 EYE. This is my second attempt at beginning my longitudinal studies. My tutor threw me in the deep end last time and I had no idea what I was doing, with zero experience and beginning studying at level 3. I'm a little bit more confident now, but am still a tiny bit confused.

So I've understood that I need to complete 4 cycles of planning, observations and evaluations and then a critical evaluation at the end over 6 weeks. I have my target children, my dates on which I need to observe etc.

What Im Really stuck on is how many times I'm expected to observe. I've chosen pse for a 2 year old and plan on doing tracker obs and narratives. It says on my sheet " tracker - 3 x observations to be carried out for approx 1 hour during day 1, week 1..." does this mean I am meant to observe 3 times for an hour each time, each day? That's like 3 hours of observation. How am I meant to get any work done? We're not in a position for me to sit back and take 3 hours out. Most of our children are only in for 3 hours. I'll be observing him the entire time he's there.

Same as narrative "3 observations to be carried out for 20 minutes during day 1..etc"

Please help me, I've been close to the edge with this studying quite often, but this longitudinal study is really killing me. 😫😩😫😂
