Alternate Assessment of Students with Disabilities in Inclusive Settings

This textbook addresses a critical challenge faced by teachers in inclusive settings: how to appropriately address the functional skill needs of students with disabilities in general education settings, while at the same time, provide adequate coverage of basic academic skills.
