Sequence of Assessment

Educator Needs Acuity Delivers
  • Measures understanding of key state standards and monitors ongoing progress
Diagnostic assessments track progress relative to state standards; predictive assessments show how a student will likely perform on state NCLB exams in a given state.
  • Aligns assessments, items, and instruction to state standards, so instruction is geared toward common goals
All assessment and instructional items align to state standards; assessment format and item style mirror state exams.

Assessment items undergo a rigorous development and review process—the same process used to create items for high stakes assessments—to ensure only the highest quality items are available in Acuity.

  • Delivers immediate, actionable reports at the student, class, and school levels to inform teaching
A wide selection of reports show progress relative to student, school, district, and multi-district performance; reports outline student progress, highlight areas of immediate concern, and inform instruction.
  • Helps teachers target instruction for whole class, small-group, or individual learning
Teachers can assign engaging instructional activities that are embedded into Acuity and aligned to state standards.
  • Integrates easily into existing classroom workflows
Acuity is an easy-to-use, flexible solution that provides teacher-friendly assessments and reports.
  • Includes opportunities for technical and implementation support as well as professional development
