Anderson, Daniel; Farley, Dan; Tindal, Gerald – Journal of Special Education, 2015
Students with significant cognitive disabilities present an assessment dilemma that centers on access and validity in large-scale testing programs. Typically, access is improved by eliminating construct-irrelevant barriers, while validity is improved, in part, through test standardization. In this article, one state's alternate assessment data…

Tindal, Gerald; Yovanoff, Paul; Geller, Josh P. – Journal of Special Education, 2010
Students with significant disabilities must participate in large-scale assessments, often using an alternate assessment judged against alternate achievement standards. The development and administration of this type of assessment must necessarily balance meaningful participation with accurate measurement. In this study, generalizability theory is…

Mariano, Gina; Tindal, Gerald; Carrizales, Dianna; Lenhardt, Brad – Behavioral Research and Teaching, 2009
The purpose of this study was to examine teachers' accommodation recommendations for students during large-scale tests using two different methods to assist teachers with the decision-making process. Then we present descriptive data on teacher recommended accommodations for two case students who had presenting data to warrant changes in the manner…

Tindal, Gerald; Germann, Gary – B. C. Journal of Special Education, 1985
Two different measurement-evaluation systems (Precision Teaching and Data Based Program Modification) are contrasted in the following educational decisions: determination of the type of data to collect, use in assessment and determination of eligibility, monitoring student progress and modifying instructional programs, and determining overall…

Germann, Gary; Tindal, Gerald – Exceptional Children, 1985
A model of special education based on the use of a direct and repeated measurement and evaluation system for developing effective educational programs is described. Two separate studies are included, presenting student outcome data at both the individual and system level, for academic and social behaviors. (Author/CL)

Alonzo, Julie; Tindal, Gerald – Behavioral Research and Teaching, 2009
In this technical report, we describe the development and piloting of a series of mathematics progress monitoring measures intended for use with students in kindergarten. These measures, available as part of easyCBM[TM], an online progress monitoring assessment system, were developed in 2008 and administered to approximately 2800 students from…

Tindal, Gerald; And Others – 1983
A system-level analysis of the effectiveness of special education was conducted in an educational cooperative comprised of six school districts. In total, 96 students (grades 1-6) were assessed three times during the year on direct, curriculum-based measures of achievement in math, reading, and spelling. Analyses of student performance data were…

Tindal, Gerald; Parker, Richard – Journal of Special Education, 1989
Eight direct scoring indices of written expression were intercorrelated, factor analyzed, and used to predict holistic judgments of writing samples of 172 middle-school students in compensatory/specialized education programs. Strongest predictors of holistic ratings were percentage of words correctly sequenced and percentage of correctly spelled…

Tindal, Gerald; And Others – 1983
The focus of this study was on the visual analysis of time series data for evaluating educational programs. Two characteristics of the data--changes in slope and variability--and two characteristics of evaluation--training in data utilization and the use of aimlines/decision rules--were manipulated. A total of 51 students and/or teachers in…
