Description

This assessment was designed specifically for our American audience. ADRI provides placement and diagnostic information and identifies reading patterns, enabling you to choose effective teaching strategies. This manual contains a word list, 40 graded passages that range in readability from Grades 1 to 12, and a combination of factual and inference comprehension questions. As well, the manual provides step-by-step instruction on how to score and interpret ADRI. (Alternate-form reliability was established by piloting ADRI with over 1500 adult basic education students.) Please note that ADRI is designed for individual testing situations rather than group testing. You need to purchase only one copy of this test, as passages and questions can be photocopied. The following topics are discussed: Section One: * Description of ADRI * Ways to Use ADRI Section Two: * Administration and Scoring of ADRI Section Three: * Interpreting Word Identification and Comprehension Skill Section Four: * Student's Graded Word List * Student's Passages Section Five: * Instructor's Graded Word List * Instructor's Passages Section Six: * Technical Development of ADRI * Glossary * References The Canadian version (with CD ROMs) is available at 8.2.2 CAM.
