- Provides an individualized approach to reading assessment for Adult Literacy Programs
- Can be used with students of all ages and abilities
- Offers a multilevel, ungraded format with simultaneous administration and scoring
- Two different form options - Form A and Form B
Scoring and Administration
The teacher/test administrator simultaneously administers and scores DAR tests, marking students’ responses as correct, incorrect, or omitted. A mastery criterion has been set for each test, and the student continues with each test until the highest mastery level has been established.
Trial Teaching Strategies (TTS)
This is an online resource that offers short lessons to address a student’s reading needs. TTS extends the comprehensive nature of the DAR by addressing the specific needs DAR identifies for a particular student. After administering DAR, the teacher can log on to the TTS website and use a student’s DAR results to access strategies appropriate to try with that student. As an alternate option, the teacher can access these strategies by selecting from an index of reading topics. The TTS website is easy to use. In just 3 steps, teachers can obtain instructional strategies to try with their students.
