Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Probably the most important advantage of anecdotal records is that they depict actual behavior in natural situations. Anecdotal records also allow for descriptions of the most characteristic behavior of a student, and they facilitate gathering evidence on events that are exceptional but significant. Anecdotal records can also be used with very young students and with students who have limited basic communication skills. One limitation of anecdotal records is the amount of time required to maintain an adequate system of records. Another serious limitation is the difficulty of being objective when observing and reporting student behavior. A third difficulty is obtaining an adequate sample of behavior, which can negatively impact validity.
