[QUOTE="Ropefree, post: 218475, member: 6271"] I am so sorry that IT IS so dingy-dangy difficult to motivate teachers to employ the means at their disposal to teach to learn rather than teach to fail. My son was given the what I call 'hot potato treatment' where they admire the problems and pass the resoncibilty elsewhere. The tests that under pinned my childs IEP were due to the dianosis adhd and the % of differance between his highest medium IQ scores (all the scores averaged together) and his lowest IQ score. This is one measure of qualification for an IEP as there is specific areas of learning sharply contrastinf from the average evidenced ability. And the self esteem piece has a profound impact on a child who becomes well aware they are not productive at the skills being offered to learn. The value of the IQ assessments is it offers the testers and anyone who is looking at the results a window into : HOW THE CHILD IS LEARNING. Where the deficits are seen is where the independant education plan then can be constructed to that the learner embraces the techniques to achieve academic excellance using their strengths or in other words differances in learning. For my son the issue was getting the answers out in all subjects. What I do is go to the director of the Special Education in the district and ask them questions. Talk to the district psycologist as well. Call the district superindendants office. Go ahead and do the paper work for a hearing. REview. What other inputs are needed for them to understand what the learner does need to achieve? D and such do not show me teaching efficiency recieved by this child. [/QUOTE]
