Abstract

Assessment in Early Childhood Education (ECE) serves to monitor children's development, but various obstacles are still encountered in the field. This research aims to identify challenges, analyze assessment techniques and instruments used by early childhood education (ECE) educators. This study employs a qualitative approach with subjects being teachers at PAUD BA Banyuaeng Klaten. Data were collected thru observations, interviews, and document analysis related to assessment practices in early childhood education (ECE). The research results show that the application of various assessment techniques, such as formative assessment, portfolios, and direct observation, can enhance educators' understanding of child development. In addition, observation sheets and assessment rubrics have proven effective in providing a comprehensive picture of children's progress. These findings indicate that educators need to receive training to develop skills in applying appropriate assessment techniques and instruments, so they can address existing challenges and support the optimal development of early childhood.
