Answer to Question 1

Answer should include: Over-reliance in the use of standardized, norm-referenced tests; assessment measures not compatible with childrens behavior and interests; misuse of assessment tools by professionals; standardized test should be used in conjunction with other sources of information, and not exclusively; test results do not provide an accurate representation of a childs typical behavior.

Answer to Question 2

Screenings are conducted to identify children who may have a delay or disability. Through screenings, the determination is made if children should undergo more in-depth assessment procedures. Eligibility assessments determine if children meet the requirements of a given program or service.
