WEBINAR: USING CHECKLISTS AND DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AS EFFECTIVE TOOLS FOR TEACHING, PLANNING AND ASSESSEMENT

 

 

A workshop looking at some forms of assessment and diagnostic testing in Special Education Teaching. We will look at checklists as an observation tool for working with students, standardised tests as diagnostic assessment tools and other formal assessment tools for use in schools. We will learn how to use assessments to establish a baseline for students, identify needs and track and monitor progress.
