Abstract

Starting in February of 2000, a small group of Iowa professionals convened with the specific charge of reviewing the current status of professional literature and practices in assessment related to behavior and providing guidance for a technical assistance document to be provided to Iowa's Area Education Agencies (AEAs). Development of the technical assistance guidelines was the result of a yearlong collaborative effort by the Iowa Committee on Assessment and Decision Making for Students with Behavioral Needs. During 2000-2001, participants in the study group met on a monthly basis to provide input on content for the guidelines written by committee members. The technical assistance document is the end result of this process and represents a consensus of this group with respect to content.
