Is normative data available for SPELL 2?
SPELL 2 is a prescriptive assessment tool; that is, SPELL 2 identifies error patterns and makes specific recommendations for spelling intervention. Normative data are not required for a prescriptive assessment tool. Standardized tests quantify a student’s performance relative to a population of peers. Professionals should keep in mind that standardized tools do not allow a clinician to determine goals, whereas this prescriptive tool does.
