Online Screeners
About the Online Screeners
Most universal screeners do an adequate job in helping to determine which children are at-risk or delayed, but not why they are falling behind in school or why they are having difficulties. This is because they typically focus on achievement scores in content areas such as math and reading, rather than the nature of the problems that are causing the lower scores.
Project SKIP uses simple and inexpensive customized screening instruments, including a new multi-dimensional cognitive assessment developed specifically for SKIP, to respond to the need for scientifically-based, comprehensive screening for behavioral, emotional, and academic issues.
Key Characteristics of SKIP screening instruments:
- Ability to screen children as young as two years
- Ability to screen for behavioral, academic, and social emotional issues
- Associated costs can be accommodated with limited budgets
- Ease of administration for clinicians, teachers, and parents
- Ability to collect data from multiple sources: clinicians, teachers, and parents
