Imagine+ Diagnostic
Pinpoint precise learning needs for each student
Accurately assess each student’s grade-level abilities in ELA and math against research-backed proficiency standards. This multi-stage computer adaptive test (CAT) delivers an in-depth view of student strengths and growth areas to inform instruction, identify students who need intervention, and track long-term learning progress.
Imagine+ Diagnostic complements:
Robust and actionable reporting
- Accurately measure growth and document progress at the domain level
- Includes Metametrics Lexile® reading measures, Quantile® measures, and National Percentile Ranks to further understand student capabilities
- User-centric format accommodates educators’ time constraints by simplifying data analysis and interpretation
Age-appropriate, supportive student experience
- Age-appropriate onboarding and testing experiences engage K–1, 2–5, and 6+ learners
- Three adaptive stages present a personalized set of multiple-choice and technology-enhanced items (TEIs) that continuously adapt to students’ performance
- A Spanish-language version of the Math Diagnostic removes language barriers for Spanish-speaking students to accurately evaluate math skills
Imagine+ Benchmarks
Gain curriculum-connected insights with standards-based checkpoints
Measure how well students are mastering grade-level expectations throughout the year with fixed-form, standards-aligned math assessments aligned to Imagine IM’s scope and sequence. Designed to mirror the rigor and structure of end-of-year state assessments, they help educators evaluate curriculum and instruction effectiveness and monitor progress toward proficiency.
Imagine+ Benchmarks complements:
Reduce test anxiety and prepare students for state testing
- Reflect end-of-year expectations, mirroring the rigor and item types students will encounter on state summative assessments
- Measure how well students transfer their learning to unfamiliar problems and authentic assessment situations
- Build student confidence for high-stakes testing through repeated experience with grade-level assessment tasks
Assessment that strengthens instruction
- Directly aligned to the order and emphasis of standards in Imagine IM, ensuring it reflects what students are learning
- Benchmarks measure standards proficiency and reveal where learning gaps exist
- When paired with Imagine+ Formatives, benchmark results help evaluate the impact of reteaching, completing the instructional improvement cycle
Track proficiency and growth over time
- Pinpoint concepts that need reteaching or extension with detailed performance insights
- Access both domain-level growth data and fixed-form proficiency checkpoints when paired with Imagine+ Diagnostic
- Support data-driven decisions with the Benchmark Performance Report and the Test Standards and Item Analysis Report
Imagine+ Formatives
Quickly check learning and adjust daily instruction
Choose from over 1,000 short, prebuilt ELA and math assessments to support daily instruction and intervention. Educators can quickly check students’ understanding during instruction, then use assessment results to guide reteaching or reinforce key skills.
Imagine+ Formatives complements:
