Let's Go Learn, Inc announces the release of a Spanish-language version of the award-winning Diagnostic Online Reading Assessment (DORA). 

 

Kensington, CA (PRWEB) June 20, 2009 -- Let's Go Learn, Inc announces the release of a Spanish-language version of the award-winning Diagnostic Online Reading Assessment (DORA). This exciting new online Spanish reading assessment, Diagnostic Online Reading Assessment (DORA) Spanish or EDELL (Evaluación Diagnostica Español de Lectura en Línea) allows educators to assess Spanish students' reading skills in their primary language, in order to better address the English-language needs of these students. DORA Spanish/ EDELL is ideal for English Language Learners (ELL) in grades K-12, as well as for adult ESL programs and tutoring centers. 

 

Based upon widely-accepted English Language education research, DORA Spanish/EDELL is a powerful, diagnostic online assessment of students' Spanish reading abilities. For ESL teachers, DORA Spanish/EDELL provides an effective means of comparing students' first language Spanish abilities with their developing second language English reading skills, and allows teachers to best utilize those Spanish reading skills to further develop English reading skills. Like the original DORA, DORA Spanish/EDELL will assess students across seven reading subskills, using the Let's Go Learn OAASIS platform to adapt to student performance throughout the assessment
