Everything is easy: entering scores, choosing and printing graphs,etc. What is hard is keeping people from generalizing info obtained about a child in a very short amount of time into data about a child which they trust more than their own data. Sent from my BlackBerry Smartphone provided by Alltel

Thanks so much for the response about AIMS web. If you have a minute I have a few other questions: Do you find it easy to use and generate reports? What do you think of the comprehension piece (not sure what a comprehension 'maze' is?)? What about the Math portion? We use Everyday Math and I am curious as to how it may correlate with that. Thanks so much for any information you can share! Lisa --- On Sun, 2/7/10, Yingling <[email protected]> wrote: From: Yingling <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] RTI - Any info on AIMS Web? To: "Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group" <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, February 7, 2010, 1:35 PM We've been using AIMSWeb for 3 years now for at least K-5 (I think maybe higher also). The fluency CBMs are just like DIBELS. Aimsweb also has a comprehension maze test and a couple of math tests. It gives a lot of reports as to how a student is doing based on class, school, etc... It's an okay start as to identifying students for RTI services. I don't think you should use it solely to place students into RTI intervention groups. _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
