THE
ASSESSMENT PROCESS
Although
speech-language pathologists use different testing tools and may vary
in the amount of time spent in assessment, comprehensive evaluations
should consider all of the delineated systems in order to develop a
treatment plan that is unique to the identified strengths and weaknesses.
Because language issues are known to underlie many difficulties in academic,
social, and vocational endeavors, it seems prudent to invest time in
a thorough evaluation that can provide a good foundation for recommendations.
The Kamara

Interview/record
review before and after assessment
Testing
Scoring
Error analysis
Transcription of output (audio/video)
