K-1 Probes
• PDFs downloaded through the Path Driver Online Resource Center
• Research-based, widely used tests for K-1 • Fluency in Letter Identification, Letter-Sound
Identification, Phoneme Segmentation, Word Identification, and Nonsense Words
• Working with six pilot schools in 2012-13 research project to develop norms, create reporting environment
Path Driver for Math
•Quick Assessment for Grades K-10
•1-4 minutes per activity (varies by grade level)
•Web-based administration increases efficiency
•Online scoring tools and automated scoring reduce manual effort and classroom management issues
•User interface design reduces distraction, improves motivation
Path Driver for Math
Path Driver for Math uses 1-4 minute assessments which focus on the following:
–Number comparison and estimation- Tasks are shown
to clearly identify students with math difficulties
–Calculation- A strong predictor of math achievement
from elementary to high school students
–Decimals and fractions- Assess algebra readiness which
allows for early identification in students likely to struggle
Kindergarten Activities
Count the Stars– Counting and number identification– Assess integration of gateway skills with counting and visual/spatial understanding
Which is More?– Comparison– Assess the emerging understanding of number sense across a broad spectrum
Grade 1-10 Activities
•Comparison with choices that increase in complexity through the grades
•Computation to assess +, -, x, ÷ while items increase in complexity to include fractions •Estimation for understanding of numerical magnitude and spatial relationships
