我们选取的是乐学前沿的辅导老师们和心理学家们最常被问到的一个问题。
问：为什么孩子需要做教育心理学评估？
答：
进行教育心理学评估是为了更加全面的了解学生的优势和短板，以便老师和父母为孩子提供有针对性的、契合需求的支持。最常见的情况是，由于学生在学校生活或家庭生活的某些方面表现出一些特定的困难和挑战，因而被推荐进行评估。
学生在学校生活中时不时遇到一些麻烦或者偶尔在行为和社交方面有一些困难是正常的。但是，如果学校已经为孩子提供了这些方面的额外支持，学习环境也已经做了一定的调整，而这种情况下孩子依旧在某些方面存在显而易见且持续的困难，那么进行教育心理学评估就可以帮助您挖掘更多有效信息。
如果孩子有以下表现则需要关注：学业成绩是否能达到所在年级的基本（最低）要求；社交技能和遵守纪律规则是否存在问题；是否在课堂有破坏性行为；是否对学校的态度越发趋于消极负面。
如果孩子的行为问题只在学校环境中发生而在家庭环境中不常见，那么很有可能引发问题行为的是学业困难所带来的困惑和挫折感。这种情况下，大人眼中的行为问题有可能是孩子们应对压力和挫折，甚至是让别人不再关注他们学业困难这个事实的方法和手段。
教育心理学评估也可以帮助需要跳级或者想要拔高加快学习进度的学生。
因为评估可以帮助那些有天赋的学生更加清晰的认识自己的思维能力和学术能力，了解自己的水平与同龄学生相比是否存在差异，处于何种位置，以此来判断跳级和更改学习方式是否真正适合他们自身。
对于父母来说，如果您想要更好的了解孩子的学习方式和认知行为风格，也可以考虑进行教育心理学评估。
通过评估来明确孩子的优势和不足，心理学家可以为家长和学校老师提供个性化的最佳教学方法建议（例如，口头或者视觉呈现的信息，哪种方式更适合学生呢？）。真正做到扬长补短，学生会变得更加自信和独立。

We are glad to inform that starting from this month, we are launching a new theme called ‘Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)’that will enable our audience to know more about the Learning Frontier and the tailored services we provide to children and families in Beijing.
As per our new theme, we have decided to address the questions or concerns asked by the parents and educators in regular intervals. This will further help us to provide better personalized support for children and families in China.
So, if you have a question in mind, just let us know!
We would love to start this theme by answering one of the questions that our team at the Learning Frontier has often come across from the parents.
Q:Why would a child need a psychoeducational assessment?
A:
Psychoeducational assessments are conducted to gain more knowledge about a student’s strengths and weaknesses so that teachers and parents can provide appropriate support.
Most commonly, a student is referred for an assessment because of some difficulty they are facing in school or at home. It is normal for children to have trouble in school from time to time or for children to have periods of difficulty with behavior or social skills.
But if your child is showing consistent and significant difficulty in certain areas despite having accommodations or additional support from school, it would likely be beneficial to seek out a psychoeducational evaluation.
Some signs to look out for include: difficulty learning basic grade-level academic, social, or behavioral skills, disruptive behavior in class, and/or a worsening attitude towards school.
Students that show behavioral difficulties at school but not at home may be experiencing learning difficulties rather than a behavioral issue. They may be acting out because of confusion, frustration, or an attempt to distract others from their difficulties.
A psychoeducational assessment can also be conducted for students that are being considered for skipping a grade or an accelerated learning program.
Students that are considered gifted learners may benefit from an assessment in order to show what level their thinking abilities and academic skills are compared to other students their age. This can help determine whether changes in their grade or instruction is appropriate or not.
Parents that wish to learn more about the way their child learns may also wish to consider having a psychoeducational assessment completed. By evaluating a student’s strengths & weaknesses, individualized recommendations can be given to the parent and school about the best way to teach the student (e.g. Do they learn better with information presented verbally or visually?).
By focusing on the student’s strengths and teaching them ways to compensate for weaknesses, the student can become more confident and independent in learning.
