For decades, the speech-language therapy profession has expressed the need for the development of language assessment materials in languages other than English for children and adults.

A Guide to Global Language Assessment: A Lifespan Approach aims to meet this need by providing comprehensive information about how to assess the language of bi- and multilingual and culturally diverse clients across the world.

Featuring the viewpoints of contributors from around the world, A Guide to Global Language Assessment also boasts a complete database of available global language assessments.

What's included in A Guide to Global Language Assessment:

Case studies, assessment frameworks, and resources for conducting global language assessments for culturally and linguistically diverse populations

An array of language assessment methods across a continuum such as ethnographic and dynamic assessments, narratives, and standardized language assessment

Methods for developing local norms

A Guide to Global Language Assessment: A Lifespan Approach

is an essential tool for empowering current and future speech-language therapists, professors, and researchers to address global language assessment across the lifespan.
