    Product Details

    The DRA3 combines decades of teacher input with the latest research to validate the premier reading assessment of individual student reading behaviors in the classroom.

    Benefits

    DRA3 offers:

    • More than 100 fiction and nonfiction books to provide your students ample choices
    • New word list screener to help estimate the best starting levels for younger students or new students entering a school or district
    • Redesigned Teacher Observation Guides (record forms) to facilitate easier recording and efficient assigning of scores
    • Reorganized Teacher Guides to ensure important administration procedures, decision points, and other information are all easier to find, understand, and implement with fidelity
    • Updated comprehension scoring criteria
    • Reading Engagement as an optional component of Benchmark Assessment

    With DRA3, teachers can:

    • Determine each student's independent or instructional reading level with an evaluation of three components of reading: reading engagement, oral reading fluency, and comprehension.
    • Quickly determine students' instructional needs to create a plan documenting what each student needs to learn next with the Focus for Instruction. Once the assessment is complete, teachers can use this information to differentiate instruction and create instructional groups.
    • As appropriate, a teacher can obtain more in-depth information for an individual student with DRA Word Analysis. This diagnostic assessment provides educators with a systematic means to observe how struggling and emerging readers attend to and work with various components of spoken and written words.

    Will all my account information be transferred (schools, users, licenses, students, etc.)?

    All the same functionalities will continue to be available, but some buttons/selections may be in a different area of the screen or perhaps be a different color.

    The testing experience will be nearly identical, but the administrative tasks will be a little different as they will now match the ATP platform model. This will ensure consistency across all the products.

    What if we were in the middle of a test?

    Testing and data updates for DRA™3, EDL™2, and/or WriteToLearn™ will be unavailable July 15–31 to prevent interrupted testing or data loss as we transition to the new platform.

    Please be sure to schedule your testing to conclude before July 15 or postpone starting any tests until August 1. We thank you for your cooperation with this scheduling.

    I think something’s wrong with my account. Whom should I contact for help?

    Please contact our Clinical Customer Support  team by web form or by calling 1-800-328-5999. Representatives are available from 6:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday.

    On ATP, will there be a change in the way I order?

    There will be no change for NNAT3 and/or TELL customers – orders will continue to be placed directly on the ATP platform

    For DRA3, EDL3 and WTL customers, you will now get to place your orders directly from your account on the ATP platform and enjoy instantaneous provisioning of your online licenses. We’ll provide training videos to walk you through this new process.

    What does the ATP site look like?

    Here's a sneak peek into the new platform!
