Description
FastBridge is an integrated assessment system designed to help schools strengthen academic and social-emotional learning through fast, reliable screening and progress monitoring tools. It blends CAT and CBM assessments to pinpoint student needs in reading, math, and SEB with precision and efficiency. Educators can easily identify which students are at risk, understand the root causes of performance gaps, and receive recommendations for instruction and intervention across Tiers 1–3. With assessments that take 30 minutes or less, FastBridge minimizes testing fatigue while maximizing instructional time. The platform’s Screening to Intervention (s2i) report clearly suggests whole-group, small-group, and individual interventions to drive targeted learning. Predictive insights from FAST Projection™ reveal whether interventions are working weeks earlier than traditional tools. Districts also benefit from data dashboards that disaggregate performance and support equity-focused decisions. Built in collaboration with leading researchers, FastBridge gives educators trustworthy data to accelerate growth for every learner.

STAR Phonics is an online tool developed by Renaissance that assists educators in swiftly and accurately assessing the foundational reading abilities of their students. This assessment evaluates proficiency in 12 essential phonics categories and identifies 102 specific phonics skills, providing educators with comprehensive insights into both the phonics patterns students have mastered and the areas that need further attention. The screening process is quick, usually taking just 2-5 minutes per student, and results are generated instantly without the need for manual data entry. It offers diagnostic reports at various levels, including individual students, classes, and grade-wide assessments; these reports reveal patterns of mistakes and gaps in skills, enabling teachers to customize their instructional approaches for individuals, small groups, entire classes, or even whole grades. Recently, STAR Phonics has introduced new features, such as audio pronunciations for every assessment word to enhance accuracy in scoring, as well as improved capabilities for exporting screener data categorized by phonics and by individual words. With these advancements, educators can gain a deeper understanding of their students’ phonics skills, ensuring that instruction is as effective and targeted as possible.
