Assessment (14%): validity (criterion, concurrent, predictive), reliability (test-retest, inter-rater, equivalent-forms), portfolio, authentic, ecological, curriculum-based, norm- vs. criterion-referenced, observational methods, permanent product, interval recording. Reading instruction: alphabetic principle, phonological/phonemic awareness, Ehri's phases (pre-alphabetic → consolidated), phonics (synthetic vs. analytic), fluency (repeated/timed/choral reading), comprehension monitoring, reciprocal teaching, graphic organizers, core/supplemental/intensive programs, dyslexia. Behavior management (14%): PBS tiers, FBA, positive/negative reinforcement, in loco parentis, 10-day suspension notice, latency, event recording, attribution retraining. Instructional practices: systematic instruction phases, explicit vs. implicit teaching, differentiated instruction (content/process/product/environment), treatment fidelity, Access Points, Florida Alternative Assessment. Transition (11%): career awareness → exploration → preparation → placement, independent living centers, Florida Division of Vocational Rehabilitation services, self-determination, COACH model. Why this bank is the anchor product: It's the most comprehensive, detail-rich resource in the entire set—covering not just what the exam asks but the developmental and linguistic depth behind each answer. If a buyer only gets one document, this is the one that covers the most ground.
