Observational Tools

Observational tools are methods or instruments used to systematically gather information by watching and recording behaviors, events, or conditions in a specific setting. They help researchers, educators, or professionals understand what is happening naturally without interference. These tools can include checklists, rating scales, or structured protocols that ensure observations are consistent and objective. By carefully observing and recording data, professionals can assess situations, track progress, or identify patterns, making informed decisions based on actual behavior or conditions rather than assumptions or reports.
