Assessment: the first step in understanding how each person really learns.
|
Why Assess?
• an imbalance between learning effort and academic results • withdrawing or low interest for learning in the academic environment • need for answers: identifying learning conditions • not understanding one’s own innate gifts or abilities, which can be used for learning support |
We can understand the processing, the layers of learning, for a whole-person view of the learner. |
An Assessment Provides Answers:
• what supports are needed, based on learning styles
• what may be contributing to academic difficulty
• how to find the ideal learning environment
• best areas to develop, remediate, or enrich
• identifying learning conditions for documentation requirements, accommodations

A DLS Assessment Focuses on the Whole Person
An assessment provides meaningful insight into the whole learner, resulting in more effective strategies for achievement. Our approach yields a more in-depth analysis using a standard battery of tests.
Differences in learning or processing information can obscure an individual’s true potential; thus a full learning assessment is especially important.
DLS has conducted over 2,500 educational assessments, intentionally moving away from the typical strengths and weaknesses model that can overlook important aspects of a learner. With incisive observation, close analysis of learning history, interviews and surveys of parents, teachers, and professionals, our comprehensive learning assessment report is a rich, valuable guide to individuals, parents, schools, and other professionals.
An assessment is the first step in understanding how each person learns. We'll help you determine which type of assessment will provide the detailed information you need.

Assessment Options
DLS’s Developmental Educational Assessment analyzes processing and how it integrates with skill development and application of those skills, language. We unpack how a learner takes in information, makes it knowledge, and is able to express it. Discrepancies of learning abilities are included. A Fleming-Leib Integral Process Assessment combines our Developmental Educational Assessment with a psychological assessment to yield a full and complete picture including global problem-solving skills, often as they relate to emotional development and the person inside. Along with discrepancies of learning abilities, learning disorders/dysfunctions, and other disorders including ADHD, ASD, or anxiety may be diagnosed. |
