This webinar recording will be useful for specialist assessors or access arrangement assessors interested in using the TOMAL 2 in diagnostic assessments and assessing for exam access arrangements.
The TOMAL 2 is designed to test working memory and is used extensively for both diagnostic purposes and to assess for access arrangements for public exams. This session provides a unique opportunity to hear Dr Cecil Reynolds, one of the authors of the TOMAL 2, outlining the uses and interpretation of the test composites and subtests. The recording includes Dr Reynolds answering questions following the webinar.
Dr Cecil Reynolds, author of the TOMAL 2, explains how the test can be used to measure working memory, focussing on the areas which the ACI, as well as other composites and sub-tests, are designed to measure. Dr Reynolds discusses how an accurate interpretation of the test results may be used to identify and support slow processing with regards to an examination access arrangement and how the test contributes to forming a diagnostic profile in identifying dyslexia.
In the webinar, delegates will consider in detail:

Memory is considered to be a core assessment area for a full SpLD diagnostic assessment and for exam access arrangements, particularly extra time. The TOMAL 2 is one of the most widely used tests in the UK for measuring this key area of performance. However, many questions have arisen with regards to the use and interpretation of the subtests and composites of this test. In this webinar, the test author, Dr Cecil Reynolds, addresses these questions, exploring how the test measures different aspects of working memory, and how these relate both to diagnostic assessments and to assessment for examination access arrangements.
