Book Overview
Heavily revised, the eighth edition of Assessment of Exceptional Students is both more current and more practical, while continuing to emphasize how both informal and formal procedures fit into the overall assessment process. A traditional text that provides the most up-to-date, comprehensive and practical approach to special education assessment on the market, it also emphasizes how both informal and formal procedures fit into the overall assessment process for students with special needs. Not only will readers of the text get the most up-to-date coverage of assessment instruments, techniques, procedures and current concerns in the field, but they will learn the historical, legal and philosophical issues as well. The eighth edition is chock-full of marked improvements to this proven and excellent text, such as a more user-friendly, paperback design, a seamless, interactive case study woven across the chapters, the latest information on assessment techniques and testing accommodations, as well as increased content about assessing students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

Excellent Resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
For those going into the field of special education or educational psychology, specifically those who will have some hand in assessment, this text is an invaluable resource to have in your professional library. It not only defines the various assessment forms, it explains how and why to administer each form as well. Also, for many (including the highly regarded CBA), it gives information to help in creating assessment tools. While I have been told that not much has changed in the new edition, this edition does include information on RTI. Because of that, I would suggest that this edition is worth the extra money over the last edition. Since little change seems to occur between editions, I would suggest getting this one and not worrying so much about the next one-- but the RTI information is a must!
