Hello - if you have time please help.

I am currently training teachers in Viet Nam. I would like to raise
awareness of assessment screening and assessment tools. If you have samples
of assessment screens / IQ tests/ and background information to support
assessing and intervening I would be grateful. 

The teachers are working in a range of special and mainstream schools with
pupils from 3- 16 years. Many of the pupils are hearing impaired but the
needs are various. The curriculum is formal and there is limited support to
teachers. 

I want to raise awareness of things for teachers to look for in constructing
assessments they can use in their own classrooms and also support the
teachers to understand how some children learn differently. 

I would also like to find information on assessing vision and hearing for
non specialists. 

I realise this is a wide range of items but I want to raise a broad
awareness and the material will need translating and editing for cultural
relevance- action research potentially for the teachers. Potentially this
will become a more significant project next year. If you would like further
information please contact me
