Understanding the multidisciplinary team process is essential for all members of the team. As introduced in Section I, you will have to identify and define the requirements of a student evaluation.

Prepare a critical analysis to discuss the following:
- Summarize school activities warranting and not requiring parental informed consent.
- Examine the components of parental informed consent for an evaluation.
- Explain due process when parental informed consent for an evaluation is refused.
- In accordance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), identify and define the requirements of a student evaluation.
- Indicate the required timeline to complete the evaluation according to IDEA.
- Compare requirements in your state with federal laws pertaining to the evaluation timeline.
- Identify a team member role, and then describe your function within the assessment process of a referred student. What information would you want to obtain? What value would this information possess within the assessment process?
