I agree with Einstein and Lori Jackson. What are we doing with this dastardly
data?
Let's count what's important.

The sales people convince the administration it is the "best" thing since
sliced bread the "cure all"...teachers are never invited to give an
opinion of these things.(every teacher know there is NOT ONE magic bean, but
lots of little adjustments!) Once the district buys in of course they

When districts are pressured to report, report, report, I think they turn to
such measures in frustration. They are easy and quick and spew pretty data.
We need to coin some sort of phrase that is the statistical equivalent of don't
judge a book by its cover. Didn't Einstein already have some
In response to the post below - and to everyone around the country - I
ask..THEN WHY USE IT (AIMSWEB)? We have enough to do in the
classroom without adding an extra layer of testing that does nothing to
inform instruction and it doesn't even do what it professes to do -
which is to i.d.

Hi, here is some information, I hope it will help. As for DIBELS and
AIMSWEB, the creators of these screeners were once on the same
team..so they are similar in some respect. There is no perfect
screener.if we remember to assess with a triangulation of
assessments this will help us
We use a universal screener in my school called "STEEP". Is this similar to
AIMS web? From the descriptions you are giving, it must be! We give reading
fluency, reading comprehension, math fluency, and math focal points three times
a year. We also get beautiful graphs.
