Description
Assessments play a critical role in identifying and supporting children with disabilities; however, traditional assessment practices may not always account for diverse cultural, linguistic, and socio-economic backgrounds of students and their families. This poster will evaluate research discussing the importance and impact of using culturally responsive assessment practices to ensure effective and appropriate interventions are utilized in teaching students with disabilities where decisions are made considering student diversity.
