ability of each student
(CAT)

measure a student’s overall
reading ability and skill
development

each reading domain
ISIP
A computer- adaptive assessment
for developing readers
• Computer adaptive for
formative assessment
and progress monitoring
• Assess a class in 40 minutes
or less
• On-demand assessments

How Does CAT
Work?
To identify the student’s overall reading
ability and individual skill ability, the
difficulty of the items presented changes
with every student response.
Student is given
an item…
Answers correctly,
given a more difficult
item
Answers incorrectly,
given a less difficult
item

What is an Ability
Score?
Since ISIP is adaptive and the test items are
displayed based on student performance,
not age or grade, identical ability scores
across grades mean the same thing.
Ability scores can be used by teachers to
inform instruction around their student’s
strengths and weaknesses. Targeted
instruction leads to better performance
and maximum growth.
