National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) has developed four goals for anti-bias education. Review these goals and applications to the classroom. How can you connect this to data collection and assessment within the early childhood environment?

According to the textbook, there are ethical principles that must be considered when engaging in observational assessments. Describe one principle that stands out to you. How can a lack of understanding of these ethics affect the child that is being observed? How could it affect assessment results?
