Review # 1 was written on 2019-01-08 00:00:00 Davidd Gongora I am currently reading this for a special education assessment class. However, it is very useful for both special and general education. It is a great resource because it has specific details of a wide variety of assessments, as well as very useful charts. I was surprised by the amount of assessments listed, which is one of my favorite things about this text. It discusses RTI, the special education process, and lists types of assessment. I also really liked that it had a section on emotional, social and behavioral education assessment. I would use this to get ideas for how I can assess all my students. I would also use it if I needed guidance on how to complete the RTI and referral process with any of my students. I thought that Chapter 4: Informal Assessment was extremely helpful because it gave me ideas for how to use portfolio assessments and showed a variety of examples of successful rubrics. This is a great resource for a beginning teacher.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-06-11 00:00:00 Nathanial Atkinson This is a great textbook. It adequately defines different types of assessment and uses those types throughout the book to be redefined based on student situations. Assessment is used and needed for identifying students in a person-centered planning situation for Transitional Planning (Pre-K to grade school, elementary to middle, middle to high, high to career readiness, hospital/home or other to school), Communication skills, Course Content, and Social-Emotional Growth/Readiness. It is extremely thorough with case studies and answers, surveys, descriptions, interviews,... Great resource.
