Customer Reviews

Very Informative

This book is for my Individual Assessment course and it is very informative, lots of helpful information to assist you. There are many 'educational terms' that the book makes for easy reading and comprehension. I do recommend to anyone is is a education major and needs to take this course.

Assessment for Children and Youth with Special Needs

This is a very great descriptive book about assessment. It guides and models some awesome assessments to use within the classroom.

All you ever wanted to know about assessment.

This book is a user friendly resource that will tell you everything you always wanted to know about assessment, but were afraid to ask because of a fear of being snowed under by a bunch of pedantic mumbo-jumbo. Whether you are a counselor or special ed. teacher ( I am in training for the former, currently employed as the latter), this book takes a comprehensive look at assessment as a whole, involving families, reliability and validity, and a section in each chapter "what shapes our views."Excellent text, and reference. This was an "optional book" in our LD class; should have been required.
