I'm wondering if any states have questions regarding assessment issues....intake (TABE?), screening for LD, instructional and testing accommodations, referring for diagnosis, etc.....that could be addressed via this discussion group. I have been involved with the development of policies regarding LD and adult education in Arkansas for ten years and can address some of the questions. Other states (Ohio leaps to mind) have also developed state policies in this area. Our policy manual is online at http://aalrc.org/resources/ld/policyManual/index.aspx, although it is in the process of a few minor changes that should be online soon. Any questions or comments?
