Early Literacy Assessment Tool Project
The 2012 School Finance Act required the Colorado Department of Education to issue a competitive request for proposals (RFP) for state purchase of an early literacy assessment tool that teachers may use to obtain real-time assessments of the reading skill levels of students in kindergarten through third grade. The intent was to support state purchase of software that provides individualized assessments with immediate results, stores and analyzes those results, and recommends activities based on those results.In
January, the contract was awarded to Wireless Generation for its DIBELS Next system and Burst diagnostic reading assessments. The
funding covers the cost of the online software license and training.
Hardware is not included.
