Dyslexia Assessments and Identification
You have gathered multiple sources of data on a student who is having difficulty learning to read and spell and is exhibiting common risk factors associated with dyslexia. Now what? The Written Word Center for Dyslexia and Learning is hosting a multi-day training of norm-referenced assessments commonly used in screening, progress monitoring, and identifying dyslexia. This training will equip dyslexia therapists, reading specialists, and educators in public school, private school, and private practice with an overview of the characteristics and underlying causes of dyslexia, step-by-step test procedures for administering and scoring specific standardized, norm-referenced tests designed to measure literacy skills formally. It will also provide guidance on analyzing the data for informed decision-making and recommendations for appropriate interventions.
