It is an individually administered multiple-choice reading test, providing an assessment of children's ability to understand words and simple sentences in the early stages of learning to read.
The multimedia version first guides children through comprehensive and full interactive practice modules and then allows them to work at their own pace. Complete standardisation of administration is ensured, as well as saving teacher time normally spent in introducing the test.
PRT consists of:
- two levels, each with two alternative forms that allow for re-testing at a later stage.
- each level of the test contains 49 test items arranged in equal and ascending order of difficulty.
The two levels cover different age ranges:
- level 1 covers the 6 to 10 years age range
- level 2 covers the 7 to 12 years age range
- in addition, level 1 can be administered as a Word Recognition test in which the questions are presented orally to the child.
The Main components are:
- results are automatically scored, ensuring accuracy.
Scores are recorded for individuals and a child's results can be viewed in a number of ways.
All results can be stored and reviewed, making it easier to evaluate progress if alternative forms are administered over a period of time.
- options to display and print all test results, to print student answers and the results of a class list are available.
- an option for exporting test results is also available.
