The SLS helps you:
- Screen for language/literacy disorders such as dyslexia by gathering teachers' and parents' ratings of students. When teachers or parents rate more than two areas on items 1-8 less than 5, SLS results indicate the student is at risk and needs further assessment with TILLS. (Sensitivity and specificity are strong: sensitivity is .92 for teachers and .85 for parents, and specificity is .90 for teachers and .83 for parents.)
- Gather input about a struggling student's strengths and needs from multiple sources—a key requirement of IDEA
- Enhance home–school communication by gaining new insight into student performance, whether or not there are concerns
