"Short and to the point—a huge advantage! Easy to read and understand, and a great reference. This book is a must-have for every school building in every district!"

—Rachel Aherns, Collaborative Resource Teacher

Build your knowledge of how the assessment process works!

This compact handbook provides general and special education teachers with clear information about the types of assessments that help determine student eligibility for special education services. Written by legal and special education experts, this guide defines disability categories and explains applicable federal regulations as they relate to the assessment process in special education. The authors outline a multidisciplinary approach for comprehensive evaluations based on observation, interviews, and testing. This indispensable resource clarifies the teacher's role in the referral process and also covers:
  • The components of a professional evaluation report
  • Student behavior during assessment
  • Making presentations to an Individualized Education Program committee

An ideal step-by-step reference for instructors who have not had specific training in assessing students with special needs, Understanding Assessment in the Special Education Process helps educators make the most effective use of available assessment options.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected.
Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2021

I thought this book was going to go through the different sections of assessments and explain what they involve, what the different results mean, and maybe how to help students with deficits in different areas. If that is what you are looking for, this book does not do that at all. If you want a book that goes through the process of identifying and qualifying students, then this is the book for you.

The book is thin and the chapters are short, but there are good nuggets of information packed within those pages.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not Impressed!
Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2010

I did not buy this book by choice but by necessity. I was not impressed but it could have been worse. For example, I could have not used it at all, meaning I wasted money I can't afford to be wasting. At least I used this book and I'll probably refer to it again - if not, I'll sell it and probably get five bucks. Wow.
