Assessment Laboratory

Catalog description

These courses introduce standard measures of human intelligence and academic functioning and provide corrective feedback in the administration, scoring and interpreting of cognitive and academic measures. Theories of intelligence are evaluated with emphasis on the interplay of cultural factors with school learning. Additionally, students will design and evaluate appropriate interventions to remediate identified academic deficits. The course is offered in association with the Assessment Laboratory, meant to ensure rigorous compliance to standardization procedures. (Previously NJCU Course PSYC-2704)
