· majorround of testing and observation, with input from multiple sources and measuresto determine a child’s eligibility for special ed services |
|
Dueprocess |
· establishedseries of legal steps for resolving disputes, often between the parents and theschool |
|
IndividualizedEducation Plan (IEP)- |
· goalsand objectives, present level, justification for disability level, areas of concern,accommodations, assistive technology, history of development, family history,ways of measuring progress, transitions after high school, developed by parentsand school system |
|
Planningand Placement Team (PPT)- |
· makingdecisions for comprehensive evaluations, made up of parents, special educationteacher, principle, specialist, school psychologist (varies by district) |
|
FreeAppropriate Public Education (FAPE)- |
· childhas the right to an education, cannot be excluded by public district due todisabilityo If achild is excluded, the public school that excluded them is forced to pay forthe private school tuition |
|
Individualswith Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)- |
· mainfederal law as teacher working with students with disabilities, a child can be referredfor special education (comprehensive evaluation) at anytimeo Parentor teacher can make referral, school has to acknowledge that referable but candeny if justified (ex. not enough time to determine) |
|
LeastRestrictive Environment |
· notthe same as full inclusion, depends on disability of child, least restrictiveenvironment for their needs, schools often have a continuum of environments |
|
Culturally/linguisticallynonbiased assessment |
· notable to translate test items in different languages if test is not available inthat language (high stakes testing), IDEA requiremento manychallenges, language barriers, lack of test translations, importance of testingin native language if possibleo consider information about school performance,opportunity to learn skills on test, use up to date test with updated norms |
|
Confidentiality- |
· - issuesonly discussed with people who are directly involved without causingprejudgment of childMore than one person mustbe used to determine placement |
|
Formativeassessment- |
assessmentto inform instruction (Venn diagram of a topic) |
|
Summativeassessment |
· assessmentto “sum up” performance at a particular point in time (final projects,assessment at the end of a unit) |
|
Diagnosticassessment |
-to identify strengths/ weaknesses in a domain (math test) |
|
Universalscreening- |
quickassessment of all students in a grade to identify students at risk, 3 times perschool year (test on phonological awareness) |
|
Criterion-referencetests- |
- test of skills in aspecific domain (math calculation, phonics), score typically are percentcorrect or # correct out of total or mastery of a goal, useful for planninginstruction (CMT) |
|
Norm-referencetest- |
testscompared a students performance in relation to a norming sample used instandardizing the test (want up to date sample with 1000s of children), usefulwith high variability, yield SS, PR, age equivalents and grade equivalents(IQtests, SAT tests) |
|
Ageequivalent- |
8-10means 8 years, 10 months, not recommended |
|
Gradeequivalent- |
o 2.1means beginning of second grade, not recommended |
|
Standardscore- |
averagerange score 90-110 |
|
Percentilerank- |
o averagerange score 25th-75th, 92%: individual tested did as wellas or better than 92% of the norm group (norm group-scorers in individualsgrade or age group)o Triennialevaluation (every 3 years) |
|
Basal- |
· -point in test administration below which it is assumed a child would get allitems correct, 5 in a row correct |
|
Ceiling- |
pointat which above it is assumed a child would get all items incorrect, 5 in a rowincorrect |
|
Curriculumbased measurement- |
· - quick, timed probeo Particularlyuseful to universal screening§ Quickand easy to administer§ Goodpredictor of overall competence and domain§ Comesin multiple equivalent forms§ Sensitiveto incremental process |
|
Curriculumbased assessment |
· broadumbrella term that applies to any assessment linked to the curriculum |
|
Responseto intervention model- |
an approach to academic and behavioralintervention used in the United States to provide early, systematic, andappropriately intensive assistance to children who are at risk for or alreadyunderperforming as compared to appropriate grade- or age-level standards |
|
Tier1: |
CoreGeneral education curriculum and instruction |
|
Tier2: |
Initiallevel of intervention, supplemental of core instruction |
|
Tier3: |
MostIntensive level of intervention, supplemental to core instruction |
|
· 3tiered model: |
o Childreninsufficiently responsive to intensive intervention referred for comprehensiveevaluation for special education |
|
Reliability- |
· theextent to which a test is consistent in measuring whatever it measures. Reliability coefficient- 0(none)-1.00(perfect),tells how reliable a test is |
|
Validity |
theextent to which a test measures whatever it claims to measure |
|
Standarderror- |
· theamount of error in a test. Related to the reliability of the test.o Ifthe standard error is small than the test reliability is generally higho Ifthe standard error is large, then the reliability is low |
|
Standarddeviation- |
· - anindicator of the amount of variability in a group of test scores. o Ifindividual scores tent to cluster around a mean, the standard deviation issmallo Ifthey are widely dispersed from the mean, the standard deviation is large |
|
Minimum test reliabilitiesrequired to use a test for: |
· Highstakes assessment for individuals (.90): · Screening (.80) · Experimentalstudies (.70) |
|
Optionsof Additional Criteria to Qualify for Services: |
· Lowachievement· Insufficientprogress from intervention· Exclusioncriteria- cannot be due to ELL or cause of other disability· Homelife, outreach to family |
|
Explicitteaching |
directexplanation/modeling |
|
Systematic |
· skillstaught in logical sequence with prerequisites taught first· Benefitsas students understand, clearer, helps kids at risk (poverty, lack of experience,students with disabilities), can be coupled with manipulative |
|
