This course gives SLPs the ability to perhaps qualify a child for services that may not look eligible on paper due to standardized scores. My district required 2 standard deviations below the mean.

I thought the first part of the course was very interesting but then second half of the course was entirely about standardized testing. The title of the course was misleading in that I thought it would address EBP in regard to both formal and "informal" evaluation.

This is a very interesting study and not surprising. I do think there is some pressure to pick up some children in schools due to parental/teacher information, especially if the tests reveal the child may be within average or above average ranges for language. I have been in schools where the teachers demand the SLP(me) to p/u child due to poor school performance. I have also seen what happens when a child could benefit from intervention but is borderline - parent. refuse serv.
