This course is a study in the selection, administration and interpretation of formal and informal test instruments. Areas addressed include cognitive, communicative, affective and adaptive behavior skills. Students will become familiar with assessment terms such as standard deviation, error of measurement, test reliability and validity. Intelligence tests, achievement tests, behavioral inventories and adaptive behavior inventories will be examined and administered and interpreted. Experience applying this data into written reports for MDT’s and IEP/IFSP’s will also be addressed.
