- Description: In this lecture the revision of the Griffiths Scales of Child Development, or Griffiths III as it is now known, will be described. It is not a description or story that falls easily and smoothly into sequence. It is one that has been garnered from many sources and from many people. Some of it comes in the form of fragments from professional men and women who have looked upon developing children with a unique and unrelenting eye. It comes from men and women who carry the germ of knowledge, implanted somewhere deeply in their beings, a place where a curious, natural rhythm exists and a kind of magic. Additionally a suggested plan for the future or “what next” phase in the interplay between universal and unique contexts in shaping child developmental assessment specifically using the Griffiths III will be described and proposed.
