Linking the ACT Aspire® Assessments to ISIP™ Reading and Math
This study connects Amira's ISIP reading and math scores to the ACT Aspire, giving districts a reliable early indicator of college-readiness trajectory.
College readiness starts well before high school, and this linking study gives district administrators and curriculum directors a way to track it from the earliest grades. Researchers established a statistically valid relationship between Amira’s ISIP reading and math assessment scores and ACT Aspire results, meaning districts can use Amira’s AI reading program as an early indicator of whether students are on a trajectory toward college-ready proficiency. For curriculum directors building long-range literacy and academic planning systems, this research confirms that Amira’s assessment data provides strategic insight that extends far beyond early literacy, connecting foundational reading growth to long-term academic outcomes.
