A Psychological Outlook On Special Education

I of. the teacher’s evaluation of the student’s day to day per* formance. Rather, it supplements the teacher's evaluation by drawing attention to specific strength, weakness, or problems.

(Fred L. Brooks is well qualified to speak out on the psychological aspects of the Special Education Program in the tireencastle School Corporation. His work in the testing program of the special school has resulted In a great deal of aid to the people involved. In this article, Mr. Brooks tells of the testing that is done to determine the assistance needed for each individual student.) By Fred L. Brooks School Psychometrist

NEXT WEEK: THE LEGISLATl RE AND SPECLAL EDUCATION.

The purpose of all testing is to determine strength and weakness, meet certain standards, and help decide where assistance is needed and what kind. Students are tested to compare with standards of averages, to find strength and weakness in various abilities, to take remedial steps when indicated, or to plan programs in keeping with interests and abilities of each individual student. Four basic types of tests are used in a school system — intelligence, achievement, personality, and aptitude. The intelligence test or IQ gives some idea of the student’s ability to do school work. The student may have other abilities not measured by the IQ test. The achievement test indicates at what grade level a student is performing. From this can be determined if a student is working up to. above, or below his ability. The achievement test is also used to indicate the strong and weak subjects, thus assisting the teacher to apply help where needed. Achievement scores should be compared with ability or IQ scores to determine whether or not the student is doing the work he is capable of doing. Personality inventories and tests are used to assist those working with the student to know where emotional and character adjustment is needed. There are many types of such tests. Those used in school help find what each student considers to be his or her problem and what areas of adjustment such as school, home, community, or peers of his own age group, need attention. A student may have scholastic background but lack certain aptitudes for a given field of work. Aptitude and interest Inventories seek to define more Hearty the student’s actual Interests and the specific

capabilities that are needed in that area of work. Some jobs require skill and dexterity with the hands. Other jobs may require both high scholastic ability and skill with hands. These tests help discover the kind of ability a student has which would be needed for a certain field of work.

HEALTH CAPSULES 1 1,V Mic hael A. Petti, M.D. \

By giving tests in these various areas of intelligence. ■ achievement, personality, aptitudes and interests, an overall picture is obtained to guide the student in vocational planning in keeping with the talents and abilities of that student. Besides the above basic tests,. certain diagnostic testing is administered to determine if the ! student needs remedial reading or if the student would be eligible to take foreign language. advanced English, or higher mathematics. Any testing program can have but one purpose which is to help each student attain the maximum of his or her ability. Testing does not take the place
