Hello everyone,
I am Shari Butler, a wife to a very patient and supportive man and mother of the most amazing 1 1/2 year-old boy. I have never participated in a blog before so I hope I am doing this correctly. I currently direct RMC Research Corporation's Austin office. We do research and development in education. More specifically, I work with state leaders to assist in implementing NCLB and IDEA. I also do quite a bit of professional development across the country for teachers in the areas of RtI and various topics in reading. Since the birth of my son, I have been wanting to stay closer to home and also get back to why I originally went into education: working with kids in special education. My hope is that by getting certified as an educational diagnostician, I can go into private practice and help families navigate the often confusing issues related to special education. I would like to be able to assess students and provide families with information to help support their child's academic success. I do not have access to any district assessments but am willing to purchase them if needed. I look forward to meeting everyone. Shari

Wrote something out to post earlier but it didn't go through. We'll see what we can do about the testing materials.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I forgot to mention that I have some experience with testing. I've administed the Woodcock Johnson numerous times becuase of research studies. I also have experience with TOWRE, Bayley Infant Scales, GORT, KeyMath, TONI, PPVT and a few others.
ReplyDeleteGreat! That will be very helpful to you. We will be concentrating mostly on the Weschler tests in this course.
