Reviews"I thought the appendices were the most unique part of the book. The "Systems of classification" appendix, which specifically includes information related to ADA, IDEA, and section 504 is crucial for those students who will be working in a school setting. The "guidelines for interpretation of test scores and assessment information" is handy for all students who will be providing assessment services, regardless of the setting."
