Ardoin, Scott P. – Psychology in the Schools, 2006
Extensive evidence exists demonstrating the utility of Curriculum-Based Measurement in reading (R-CBM) for progress-monitoring purposes; however, most studies have evaluated R-CBM from a traditional psychometric perspective, which allows for variability in individual student's data that is not a function of increased skills (i.e., measurement…

The previous method of detecting SLD, which relied on IQ and achievement testing, consequently is no longer mandatory.…

This article discusses strengths and weaknesses of both approaches, touches on current legislative…
