Description
ASI WISE/CLASI Module 2* introduces the learner to information on direct and indirect assessments including the Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT) through http://www.wpspublish.org and the Evaluation in Ayres Sensory Integration (EASI) (Mailloux, Parham & Smith Roley, 2016, in process). This price includes live online ASI WISE mentoring in dedicated Assessment modules tutor peer groups while students undertake their case study Module 2 is a set of 20 lessons aimed at introducing and orienting the learner to the scope of comprehensive assessment in ASI, including specific methods for assessing core sensory integrative functions and planning intervention when applying the ASI framework. Learners are introduced to information on direct and indirect assessments, including the Evaluation in Ayres Sensory Integration (EASI) and the Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests (SIPT) through www.wpspublish.com. *ASI WISE is working with world leaders in Ayres Sensory Integration; Susanne Smith Roley and Zoe Mailloux of CLASI to develop a range of courses to meet the learning needs of UK and Ireland therapists.Module 2 is a set of 20 lessons aimed at introducing and orienting the learner to the scope of comprehensive assessment in ASI, including specific methods for assessing core sensory integrative functions and planning intervention when applying the ASI framework.

REQUIREMENTS AND ASSIGNMENTS

REQUIRED MATERIALS
To receive the final certificate, learners must document the completion of a comprehensive assessment of sensory integration with at least two typically developing children and one child who has been identified as having concerns. Due to the accessibility of the EASI in terms of cost, age range, and international applicability, the main assignments of the program will be geared toward these newly developed tests. A checklist of items needed for learning, practicing, administering, and scoring the EASI will be provided in the resources section of CLASI’s assessment Modules (Modules 2 & 3). The estimated total cost for the EASI items is $200-$300.
Participants in the CLASI CASI who have access to SIPT materials and who wish to test children on the SIPT as part of the case requirements may do so. Therapists will be guided through the interpretation process with the tests they apply and through cases provided in the modules.
