Difficulties with communication, language, and social skills are common concerns for individuals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). While some individuals’ communication and language difficulties are subtle, other individuals’ difficulties are severe. Early identification in all cases provides the best opportunity for improvement. This webinar will focus on assessments appropriate for individuals of different ages and language ability levels.
Recognizing the sensory processing and motor needs of individuals with autism is vital for participation and success. Challenges in these areas may underlie or exacerbate many social, behavioral, and learning difficulties.
Discover the power of using aimswebPlus reading benchmark and progress monitoring results alongside a true dyslexia screening tool—the Shaywitz DyslexiaScreen. Integrated within the aimswebPlus system, teachers have two evidence-based measures for supporting students at all reading levels. In this video, viewers will learn about the administration, scoring, and reporting of the Shaywitz DyslexiaScreen on aimswebPlus, featuring the Aggregate Risk Report.
Autism is a developmental disability that significantly affects verbal and nonverbal communication and social interaction. Some of the symptoms of autism may be characteristics of other developmental disabilities, so a comprehensive developmental evaluation is needed to differentiate ASD from other developmental disabilities.
At this session, presenters will provide information that will enable participants to describe the differences between CELF Preschool-3 and PLS-5 and explain how clinicians can select the test that provides useful information about a child’s language skills. Using case studies, the presenter will describe differences in the type of data provided on each test and explain how differences in the format and content of the tests can contribute to score differences.
Meeting the sensory processing and motor needs of individuals in educational settings is vital for participation and success. Challenges in these areas may underlie or exacerbate many social, behavioral and learning difficulties faced by students.
One of the diagnostic areas that characterize Autism Spectrum Disorder is impaired communication. The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Fourth Edition can be used to evaluate the early communication skills of children age 16 days to 42 months.
