Accelerate Literacy Skills with Istation Reading
Istation’s blended learning approach uses research-based assessments and a computer-adaptive curriculum to drive powerful student growth.
Firmly rooted in the science of reading, Istation’s reading assessment and instruction covers the National Reading Panel’s “Big Five” foundational reading skills:
- phonemic awareness
- phonics
- fluency
- vocabulary
- reading comprehension
Coach Students with Actionable Data
Inside Istation, educators can easily access the diagnostic reading assessment and screen an entire class in 30 minutes or less. Pinpoint student strengths and needs to provide interventions and instruction at the right time.
Our computer-adaptive assessment…
- measures readiness for grade-level instruction;
- screens to identify students who are at risk for struggling with core instruction;
- determines what interventions are needed; and
- monitors progress and tracks student growth.
Personalized Instruction and Intervention
As students move through the instruction, they have opportunities to engage with increasingly complex texts and gamified activities that are on their grade level. Teachers can target interventions in whole- or small-group instruction to meet the needs of all learners.
Time-Saving Teacher Resources
Educators get access to thousands of online interactive resources, including read-alouds, digital books, teacher-directed lessons, and more. With these tools, teachers can spend more time instructing, and students can spend more time learning.
Digital Oral Reading Fluency
Istation’s digital Oral Reading Fluency assessment for grades K through 3 combines over three decades of educational research with more than a decade of technical development and data to provide schools with the latest voice recognition and recording technology.
With ISIP ORF, teachers can screen students to determine who is at risk of falling behind and can monitor progress to determine how well interventions are working. Plus, with Istation’s Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) educators can further measure students’ fluency with cutting-edge assessment tools.
