Online Reading Risk Screener
Istation’s digital reading assessment allows educators to universally screen for students who may be at risk of reading difficulties like dyslexia.
What Is Dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a language-based learning disability that causes difficulties in reading, writing, spelling, and other language-related skills. Research shows that dyslexia affects nearly 1 in 5 students.
Students can start showing signs of reading difficulty as early as preschool.
With the right tools in place, educators can identify warning signs in students early and help them build foundational reading skills.
How Our Assessment Works
Istation offers 2 types of screening assessments to identify reading difficulties such as dyslexia: Istation's Indicators of Progress (ISIP™) and ISIP™ Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN).
ISIP assesses students in the foundational reading skills known as the Big Five - phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension - while ISIP RAN measures processing speed.
Using these assessments, educators are able to identify which students may need further evaluation for reading difficulties and/or continued monitoring.
