Professional setup required This book is written for professionals who run assessments, and using it well means giving formal assessments to students who have visual impairments, sometimes with other disabilities. A wrong approach could give a misleading picture of a student's abilities, so trained professionals need to use it.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This is a professional guide on assessing students who are blind or visually impaired, including students who also have other disabilities. It helps teachers and other professionals understand how a visual impairment can affect what an assessment shows about a student's learning potential. The text is written for the people doing the assessing, not for students or families to use on their own. It is made to order or sold as a digital book, and the digital version needs an EPUB reader to open.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    1. If you buy the digital version, open the EPUB file in a free EPUB reader.
    2. A printed copy is made to order, so allow 10-14 business days for it to ship.
  • With a guide
    1. Read the guide through before planning an assessment, then use its approach to shape how you gather information about a student.
    2. Plan time to adapt the guidance to each student's vision, communication, and learning needs.
  • With professional help
    Putting this approach into practice calls for a trained professional, such as a teacher of students with visual impairments or an assessment specialist. Expect to build the assessment process into your school or program over several sessions with each student.
