Assessment in Educational Therapy

Assessment is always the most mystifying for people who work with individuals with learning disabilities. Marion Marshall has finally demystified it for us so that we can understand and even self-advocate for our family members or clients who undergo complex evaluations about their personal learning realities. -Dorothy Ungerleider, MA, BCET, Founding President, Association of Educational Therapists, USA The book is written so practically and accessibly that I felt as if I were being given both moral and intellectual support by a mentor sitting by my side as I labored to sort my feelings from a more analytical stance about two current clients. . . . I admire the probing nature of the book's self-review questions and the fact that there are sets designed for both professionals/students and for parents. -Carolyn Edwards, M.Ed., Board Certified Educational Therapist, USA This book will save the life of any educational therapist by reducing the stress of determining the most appropriate assessments to use informally and formally. The amount of information contained is this book must be read and shared with all colleagues in field. -Dr. Janet Williams, Ed.D, Educational Therapist/Professional, USA Assessment in Educational Therapy presents the essential grounding, skills, and ethical considerations that educational therapists need in order to understand and conduct assessments. . . . Marshall has made available to us a crystalline distillation of her forty-year-long adventure with assessment. The book is a must-read for both the novice and the veteran. -Carolyn Edwards, Med, BCET, Educational Therapist, USA, in The Educational Therapist, Volume 41, Number 2 (Fall 2020)
