Norm-Referenced Tests II is a continuation of training in the processes of assessment of children's cognitive, achievement, and language development. A variety of norm-referenced instruments will be reviewed, including broad-based comprehensive measures and diagnostic measures, as well as approaches for children from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Important theoretical issues in intelligence and research-based practices regarding academic development and assessment will be discussed. While students will be required to practice the administration and scoring of assessment instruments, the main focus of this course will be to develop higher-level interpretive skills and ability to communicate findings effectively in a written format.
