"School practitioners will appreciate this book's practical guidelines for building a single, coherent, student behavioral profile from many different data sources. Schools now adopting the response to intervention model will discover this book to be an indespensible resource for assessing the needs of difficult-to-teach students with challenging behaviors" —Jim Wright, MS, CAS, director of pupil services, Baldwinsville (New York_ Central School District
This indispensable book helps school practitioners go beyond putting a label on student behavior problems--it shows how to use assessment to partner with teachers and students to develop effective solutions. The authors provide a framework for determining the types of behavioral data that are needed in a given situation, selecting appropriate measures, and interpreting and organizing the results. Case examples tie it all together, demonstrating how different assessment strategies can be used to support positive behavior and monitor progress at the level of the individual, the classroom, or the entire school. In a large-size format with convenient lay-flat binding, the volume features 15 reproducible checklists and forms.
