Quickly acquire the practical coverage and guidance you need to
understand the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
(IDEA)
The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) governs
how states and public agencies provide early intervention, special
education, and related services to children with disabilities.
To understand it thoroughly, school psychologists, teachers, and
other school service providers need a comprehensive resource to
guide them in what this frequently amended Act means and how it
should be interpreted. The first concise, yet authoritative, book
of its kind on which professionals can rely to navigate this
often-misunderstood law, Essentials of IDEA for Assessment
Professionals is that source.
Like all the volumes in the Essentials of Psychological
Assessment series, each chapter features numerous callout boxes
highlighting key concepts, bulleted points, and extensive
illustrative material, as well as test questions that help you
gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information covered. Written
in the user-friendly and well-known Essentials format, each of the
seven concise chapters covers terminology, classification,
assessments/evaluations, and other topics related to IDEA.
With an accompanying CD offering commentary on judicial
decisions related to interpretation of IDEA, as well as references
to the 2006 final regulations for IDEA 2004 and Section 504
regulations, Essentials of IDEA for Assessment Professionals
provides helpful guidelines for educational assessments and
evaluations.
