Early Screening of Written Language Skill: The Test of Early Written Language (TEWL).

Isaacson, Stephen L.

Learning Disabilities Research and Practice, v7 n4 p231-34 Fall 1992

This review of the Test of Early Written Language concludes that the test succeeds in identifying students who are below their peers in writing and in measuring long-term gains in written language achievement; but its format makes it difficult to document specific strengths and weaknesses and its reliability; and validity have not been demonstrated.
