Presenter:  Sara Holman

Training Description: The reauthorization of IDEA in 2004 provided for the use of alternate research-based procedures for determining the presence of SLD, including establishing a pattern of strengths and weaknesses by evaluating various cognitive, achievement, and neuropsychological processes.  Increased latitude in identification procedures raises questions about consistency of outcomes across identification methods.  The study discussed in this training compares the identification outcomes and diagnosis consistency of three assessment models: Cross Battery Assessment (XBA), Dehn’s PSW Model, and the Core-Selective Evaluation Process (C-SEP). Results indicate low consistency among models for the cases included in the study; potential explanations and implications for practice, research, and policy will be discussed with a particular focus on strategies for evaluators and administrators to conduct sound, legally defensible evaluations.

This training is free to all Region 10 schools.
