Associated academic weakness in an area which matches the cognitive weakness
Summative (5)
What students have learned over a period of time
ACT, SAT, Final Exams

Tells what to teach not how
Given to all students
Special Education (4)
Specially designed education
No cost to parents
Meet unique need of child
Instruction conducted in classroom, home, hospitals, institutions

CALPS
Cognitive, academic, language, proficiency skills
(low verbal cues, low context)
Z-Score (3)
Determine raw score location in distribution
Known SD
Sample greater than 30
Classical Conditioning
Multistep proceducre
Presenting UCS which elicits UCR
UCS/UCR
Unconditioned Stimulus
Unconditioned Response
Constructivist Theory (2)
Bruner
Concept of discovery learning implies that the students construct their own knowledge for themselves. Actively involved in the process of meaning and learning
Criterion-Referenced Test (3)
Students scores compared to a criterion for mastery
Score indicates whether student met criteria
Pass of fail score
Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences (8)
- Linguistic
- Logical-Mathematical
- Spatial
- Bodily-Kinesthetic
- Musical
- Interpersonal
- Intrapersonal
- Naturalistic
Opperant Conditioning (2)
BF Skinner
Presenting reinforcement and contingent on a response emitted in the presence of a stimulus to increase the likelihood of occurrence of the response
Central Tendency
Statistical measure to determine a single score that defines the center of a distribution
Regression
Need to measure prediction
Normal Distribution of Raw Scores/T-Scores (mean/SD)
50/10
Adverse Impact
Student’s progress is impeded by the disability to the extent that the student’s educational performance measures significantly (2 SD) and consistently (6 months) below level of similar aged peers, preventing success in Gen Ed

Basic Principles of Interpretation (5)
*We test to intervene not diagnose
*Data that cannot be linked to intervention is usesless
*PSW should be linked to recommendations for instruction and to interview
*Tests are dumb tools only given meaning by astute practitioners
*Tests results are little value in isolation
How long does it take to acquire academic/advanced fluency?
