商品簡介
Salvia (Pennsylvania State U.), Ysseldyke (U. of Minnesota), and Bolt (Michigan State U.) offer a straightforward and clear coverage of basic assessment concepts. Assuming no prior knowledge of measurement and statistical concepts, the text is designed for a first course in assessment for students and practitioners in special education at the elementary or secondary level, and the diverse professionals who support special educators. Coverage includes an overview and basic considerations, assessment in classrooms, assessment using formal measures, special considerations, and using results to make educational decisions. Revised and updated throughout, the 12th edition includes five new chapters on assessment in social and educational contexts, assessment and decision making in schools, curriculum-based approaches to measuring student progress, cultural and linguistic considerations, and multi-tiered systems of support and response to intervention.
