It contains everything a practitioner needs to write comprehensive psycho-educational reports based on an individual's performance on the <em>WJ III</em>.</p> <p><strong>Features</strong> <br> The <em>Report Writer for the WJ III</em> has expanded report-writing capabilities. The program:</p> <ul type="disc"> <li>Contains the <em>WJ III</em> interpretive plan and integrates contextual information from nine criterion-referenced checklists with test scores</li> <li>Helps professionals create more comprehensive and understandable reports</li> <li>Contains an intellectual ability/achievement discrepancy comparison procedure with the <em>WJ III Tests of Achievement</em> and the <em>WJ III Tests of Cognitive Abilities</em>, <em>UNIT</em><sup>&trade;</sup>, <em>CAS</em>, <em>BVAT</em>, <em>WISC-III</em><sup>&reg;</sup>, and <em>WAIS</em><sup>&reg;</sup> <em>III</em></li> </ul> <p><b>Interpretive Resource</b> <br> The <em>Report Writer for the WJ III</em> is a valuable interpretive resource for practitioners. The program's interpretation is based on the insights of <a href="woodcock.html">Dr. Richard Woodcock</a>, the senior author of the <em>WJ III</em>. Using the program allows practitioners to take advantage of Dr. Woodcock's insights by incorporating his interpretation into their reports. The program produces an accurate and comprehensive report and allows practitioners more time to focus on other aspects of the assessment, such as background information, reason for referral, clinical impressions, and recommending appropriate and helpful interventions.</p> <p>Note: Scores generated by the <i>Report Writer for the WJ III</i> are based on the original <i>WJ III</i> norms, not the <i>WJ III Normative Update</i> norms. The next generation of <i>Report Writer</i> software, the <i>Woodcock Interpretation and Instructional Interventions Program</i>"! (<i>WiiiP</i><i> </i>"!), will be available in fall 2007 and will utilize norms from the <i>WJ III Normative Update</i>. The <i>WiiiP</i> will offer practitioners an expert system for interpreting test results and will provide a direct link between assessment data and evidence-based instructional interventions.</p> <p><i><a href="compuscore.html">WJ III NU Compuscore and Profile Program</a></i><br> Each <em>WJ III NU</em> Test Kit includes the <em>WJ III NU Compuscore and Profiles Program</em> at no additional charge.
