AEPS is in a league all of its own. No other assessment tool with which I am familiar begins to compete with AEPS. The developers of this tool . . . are knowledgeable, as well as realistic about what a teacher can do, and as a result they have developed a tool that supports individualization of programming while freeing us up to spend more time with children and less on the paperwork. What a win-win situation!"

AEPS is very user friendly. I'm not bogged down by large manuals, and it can be incorporated into my daily schedule, using materials that are already present in my classroom."

AEPS works great with children with special needs—you get a wonderful overall picture of the child and can develop goals and objectives that fit the child and the classroom routines."

AEPS is very comprehensive—it made me more cognizant of the kinds of skills that are appropriate to be looking for at various developmental levels. And the parent component is so helpful for working cooperatively!"

AEPS makes my job easier because it helps me link assessment to intervention and write meaningful IEP goals and objectives."

The descriptive critieria for each developmental step provides a consistent base for each observation from various team members. It allows different team members to look at a strand and know exactly what skills are to be observed."

I enjoy using AEPS in my classroom. It gives me so much information on all my children—information that's useful to the parents, also."
