LearningLink™ is a valid and reliable formative assessment that
measures a student’s existing knowledge, comprehension, and
mastery of basic skills in reading and mathematics for grades one through
eight. The tests and results are calibrated to The Lexile Framework® for
Reading and The Quantile Framework® for Mathematics and are aligned to
state standards and objectives.
Teachers can place their students in the appropriate reading and math
instructional materials and forecast how a student will perform on
Lexile®- or Quantile®-aligned tests. Interventions can then be prescribed
and tailored to each student’s ability and needs. Educators who use the A+nyWhere Learning System® can automatically make prescriptions from
an A+ LearningLink assessment. This allows educators to accurately track
progress throughout the year.
Teachers and administrators have research-based formative assessments
and instructional courseware in one integrated system that reports on one
common scale. Placement, prediction, prescription and progress is now
simple and meaningful. |
The Lexile Framework for Reading
The Lexile Framework for Reading is an educational tool that connects readers with reading materials using a common measure called a Lexile. Recognized as the most widely adopted reading measure, a Lexile denotes both reading ability and text difficulty on the same scale. When used together, Lexile reader measures and Lexile text measures enable educators, parents and students to select books and other targeted reading materials that meet and challenge a reader's unique abilities and interests.

The Quantile Framework for Mathematics
The Quantile Framework for Mathematics is a scientific approach to measurement that locates a student’s ability to think “mathematically” in a taxonomy of math skills, concepts, and applications. The Quantile Framework measures a student's mathematical achievement and concept/application solvability on the same scale, enabling educators to use Quantile measures to monitor a student’s development in math and forecast performance on end-of-year tests.
