Not only will readers of the text get the most up-to-date coverage of assessment instruments, techniques, procedures and current concerns in the field, but they will learn the historical, legal and philosophical issues as well. The eighth edition is chock-full of marked improvements to this proven and excellent text, such as a more user-friendly, paperback design, a seamless, interactive case study woven across the chapters, the latest information on assessment techniques and testing accommodations, as well as increased content about assessing students from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
