Recenzii
“The intended audience includes researchers, clinicians, and graduate students in child and school psychology, pediatrics, social work, behavioral therapy, infant and early childhood development, and early education and care. … This book shows how the use of checklists can result in fewer administration, scoring, and interpretive errors. It should be in the libraries of clinicians, administrators, and researchers who work with young children.” (Gary B Kaniuk, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2019)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book examines the challenges in developmental assessment of infants and toddlers and provides best practices for implementing standardized assessments in early intervention settings. It starts with an overview of standardized assessment practices and discusses how specific tools can be used in early intervention for different purposes (e.g., eligibility for services). The book explains the importance of the Fidelity of Implementation of Assessment (FOI-A) approach in creating standardized assessment for infants and toddlers. Chapters provide a checklist-based framework for FOI-A, with details on technological supports for test administration and data collection as well as training and supervision models. In addition, chapters discuss ways of engaging families, gaining their trust, and including them in their children’s educational planning.
