The Foundations of Evaluations for English Language Learners
Dyslexia and Dysgraphia Determination




The goal of this training is to ensure Special Education Evaluators, primarily Bilingual Educational Diagnosticians and Licensed Specialists in School Psychology (LSSPs) are equipped with the knowledge and skills to respond to the unique evaluation needs of English Language Learners; thus, guiding evaluation personnel in the implementing of culturally and linguistically appropriate evaluations.



Important Session Information:


When evaluating English Language Learners (ELLs) for the condition of dyslexia or dysgraphia, the Bilingual Diagnostician and Licensed Specialists in School Psychology (LSSPs), must have a firm foundation of how cognitive processes relate to achievement abilities regarding meeting the criteria for the condition of dyslexia or dysgraphia. Therefore, Dr. Cole will provide participants with best practices of evaluating for the conditions of dyslexia and dysgraphia for ELLs. These practices will be based on the current Texas Dyslexia Handbook.
