Review # 1 was written on 2011-11-05 00:00:00 Ravi Goel Assessing Learners with Special Needs: An Applied Approach was a textbook that I had to purchase and read for my graduate level course on assessing students with special needs. Did it have new and relevant information on diagnosing and assessing students with disabilities? Yes. Did it summarize, critique, and apply several diagnostic tests to different disabilities? Yes. Did it explain how to implement and asses these diagnostic tests? Yes. Is it dry and hard to get through? Yes. Overtone has a difficult task: take dry material and make it interesting. It's essential knowledge, but you'll need to take this one in small doses.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-12-13 00:00:00 Joel Hall Read as part of curriculum for Instructional Design course. This book gave me a whole new appreciation for the amount of work Special Education teachers are required to do in order to do their jobs. Will be saving this book when I begin my journey in the classroom.
