Chapters provide a checklist-based framework for FOI-A, with details on technological supports for test administration and data collection as well as training and supervision models. In addition, chapters discuss ways of engaging families, gaining their trust, and including them in their children’s educational planning. Topics featured in this book include: The Battelle Development Inventory, 2nd Edition (BDI-2) and its use in the assessment of young children. Using checklists to improve fidelity of implementation for standardized assessments. Using checklists to support early intervention directors and teams.
