Assessment of students with multiple impairments in the areas of learning media and assistive technology can be problematic. Typical approaches may not afford information that is useful in designing effective learning strategies. In this webinar series, we will review existing instruments that are designed for the child with visual and multiple impairments. Included is information about the design of each instrument, the skill areas it considers and a step-by-step explanation of the assessment process it employs. Assessment tools that will be reviewed may include: Sensory Learning Kit, Functional Schemes, Every Move Counts, Communication Matrix, Infused Skills / Basic Skills Assessment, Robbie Blaha's Calendar Assessment, and Philip Schweigert's Tangible Symbols assessment.
