25
Systematic collection of information to identify and define strengths/needs to be used in a collaborative team process for solving problems using treatment integrity; decisions make without data may result in using ineffective and inappropriate interventions; screening = brief evaluation to identify students who are: eligible for specific programs, have a weakness in need of intervention, may need comprehensive assessments; Eligibility for IDEA services should NOT be made based on these results
