John Smith did not show significant gains on the Reading Progress Indicator reports. Are the Fast ForWord products working?
It is important to realize that test performance is just a partial snapshot of a student’s performance at a given time. Performance can be influenced by a student’s physical or psychological state at the time of the test. As always, proper implementation of the products is essential. Students should follow the designated protocol to achieve measurable gains. Scientific Learning recommends using both a variety of assessments and reviewing the pattern of student performance over time. We also recommend looking for signs of progress in the student’s classroom work and behavior.
