Great Book
| Customer Rating:  | | This book was assigned by my Grad Instructor and it has really helped me grasp the world of Assessments. Thank you. |
Assessing Learners with Special Needs
| Customer Rating: | I found this book to be redundant of all of the classes I had already taken. However, if you are taking the Praxis in Special Education, there are a lot of things you will find in this book to help you. I read it before I took the exam. It was easy for me to read, but I think it was also do to the fact that I learned everything in another course.
In my class it wasn't even required because he goes over everything in lecture, plus the class is about actually giving assessments.
If you buy the book, don't worry about its condition as long as you can read it! |
textbook purchase
| Customer Rating: | | I ordered textbooks for a friend for his class at UMKC. I had the book within a week. |
Great Overview to Assessment and Evaluation
| Customer Rating: | | Most special education teachers only see the end product of assessments done by school psychologists. This book helps you understand the numbers and what they represent when looking at a evalutation team report. This book helps you to write more effective IEPs and plan remediation for appropriate areas of weakness and capitalize on strengths. |
