Overview
Assessment in Special Education illustrates how the assessment process works in schools, and how to effectively use it in practice. The entire process is presented as a real-world, step-by-step story. From identification of a high-risk child to placement, this valuable resource gives you clear methods to put what you've learned into practice. Samples of actual assessment, evaluation and procedural forms demonstrate how to interpret results and make a diagnosis. Hands-on opportunities show how to use test data in writing a professional report and in making recommendations. Real-world approaches prepare you to conduct parent-teacher conferences and attend eligibility committee meetings.
The 6th Edition includes 4 new chapters that delve into current issues and your role in the assessment process. Updates include analysis of the most current tests, evaluations and eligibility requirements for all areas of exceptionality.
