TOD Training Video Program

Description of Training Video Program

The Tests of Dyslexia (TOD™) is a comprehensive diagnostic tool that can be used to assess and identify dyslexia (specific learning disability in reading) in individuals 5-89 years of age.

In Part I of this training program, you’ll observe test administration as portions of the TOD-Screener, TOD-Early, and TOD-Comprehensive are given to four students of varying ages. Assessment author Dr. Nancy Mather will guide you through all four case examples, providing relevant clinical and educational background information, illustrating how to analyze scores, and explaining the interpretive report. The course features embedded reflection questions to highlight key ideas.

In Part II of this training program, you’ll practice scoring individual test items selected from the TOD-Early and TOD-Comprehensive assessments, using video case examples and a downloadable protocol. The course is designed to allow you as much practice as you need, and you can compare your scores to the examiner’s results for further learning. You’ll leave the program with a solid grasp of test administration and the scoring process.
