5 Immediate Feedback SCORING OPTIONS ReadyResults.net scan, score, and run reports online at your school site; key entry or web-based environment Obtain fully customizable reports immediately View multiple assessments on one report Monitor student progress by viewing results over time Student narrative reports in English and Spanish to share with parents 13 Appropriate choice NNAT 2 Measures general ability quickly and nonverbally Assesses general ability without requiring the student to read, write, or speak Requires students to problem solve by recognizing patterns and making connections using abstract figural designs or symbols Measures ability equitably for students from many different cultural and linguistic backgrounds Why Nonverbal Tests? Can be group administered in paper/pencil or online, ages or grades K-12. K Tales 30 minutes to administer; 48 items Can be used to identify students whose low general ability may indicate potential academic problems as well as gifted and talented student with high general ability Increases ID of gifted minority students For evaluation of students who are hearing impaired 15

6 Consideration Can a nonverbal test be used as the primary tool for measuring ability? Nonverbal test results should be evaluated along with other data to ensure that every child is assessed completely Primary tools for screening should be identified on the basis of their validity Relationships to future achievement Non-discriminatory value What does a Nonverbal Test Look like?
