Description
Revising and updating the first edition, the book offers step-by-step instructions for using innovative direct assessment and intervention tools that are organized around a state-of-the-art, four-step conceptual framework. Unlike traditional techniques, direct methods of assessment evaluate academic skills in the context of the student's own school curriculum. This book shows how direct methods can be used for establishing clear links to intervention strategies and for determining the success of remedial efforts in different skill areas.
