Diagnostic Assessment | given to individual students who may need extra support, used because screening has suggested a disability (usually standardized and specific to they type of problem) |
Progress monitoring assessment | is given to determine if an intervention is successful. |

Norm-references assessment | or standardized tests are results for an individual student in relation to their peers. |
Criterion-referenced assessments | like the FCAT, compares an individuals's performance against a predetermined standard |
Individual-referenced assessment | like a running record, measures an individuals student's score at one point in time to a later point in time. |
Performance-based assessment | eg project or essay, the student must exhibit some behavior or create a product requiring integration of knowledge and skills |
ways we interpret, analyze, and apply the results of assessments | validity and reliability |
Validity | using assessment information to make informed instructional decisions |
Types of validity | criterion-related validity content validity -construct validity |
Criterion-related validity | The extent in which the scores are related to the criterion measure. 1. Concurrent validity: The criterion measure is administered at the time of the assessment (new assessments) 2. Predictive validity: the criterion measure determined in future |
Content validity | The extent an assessment accurately measures identifiable content such as standards |
Construct validity | the extent which an assessment accurately measures some underlying construct such as intelligence |
Reliability of assessments | same results over time, settings, etc. 3 types: test-retest reliability inter-rater reliability equivalent-forms reliability |
Test-retest reliability | will results be the same when tested and retested |
