MDPE.12:2.5 - Obtain observations before interpreting them

Preserve enough provenance to answer:

  • what was observed;
  • by whom or by which instrument;
  • through which Method and representation;
  • under which conditions and time span;
  • what direct indication or report was returned; and
  • what source or artifact lets another practitioner revisit it.

Record practitioner interpretation separately. A teacher can say that a movement became more readable, but the supporting partner reports, video, comparison conditions, and competence should remain recoverable when the claim matters.
