ReviewsPraise for the previous edition: "A comprehensive, multi-informant
workbook suggesting the need for cooperation among individuals to evaluate
data from several sources...This manual provides excellent tools that, in my
opinion, could be extremely valuable to those persons involved in diagnostic
work as well as those persons involved in planning, implementing, and
managing interventions." "The format of the workbook allows for convenience through the
arrangement of norms and corresponding instruments. Each section is self
explanatory and allows for questions to be answered before the instrument is
used. A wide variety of instruments allows for evaluation to flow into
program planning and management. The many aspects of this process are
covered and suggestions for implementation provided. This creates an
opportunity for the workbook to be used by diagnosticians, as well as
educators and parents." |
