Description:
During this professional development we will quickly review best practices to evaluate
the dual-language student. We will delve deeper into fair assessment by discussing
dynamic assessment and creating an informal task using the components of a mediated
learning experience. Then, we will learn how to best collaborate with an interpreter by
using the BID process. Lastly, we’ll talk about what you should include in the Speech-
Language Evaluation Report of your Dual Language student.
