Let’s Discover More About the Problem, Not Just Get a Score: Psychoeducational Assessment with VI Students
Presented by: Eva Prince
Date: 05/7/2021
Research suggests that approximately 60-70% of children with visual impairments will ultimately be diagnosed as having a secondary disability (Loftin, 2005). A student who continues to display difficulty making progress despite the use of adaptations and modifications recommended for their visual impairment may have other conditions that impact their ability to learn. Some of the conditions include intellectual delay, learning disability and Autism Spectrum Disorder. A diagnostic process to address learning concerns is important in the development of an appropriate individual educational plan as well as identifying adult service delivery systems. This one-hour presentation will share various assessment tools found useful in the Psychoeducational Assessment process of Blind and Low Vision children.
