Assessment Tools
Assessment identifies and showcases the knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA) of learners. Here we provide literacy practitioners with a sampling of assessment tools and resources that can be used in initial intake/program placement, ongoing evaluation, and exit assessment. Learners should be aware of the purpose, timing, & method used by trained administrators.
