Seeing the Full Picture: Using CogAT® Ability Data to Enrich Student Learning in Private Schools

 

Data-driven instruction is a crucial component to enable student success in private school settings, where educators often have greater instructional flexibility and a mission to meet students' individual needs. Among the most valuable tools in an educator’s portfolio are the rich insights provided by the Iowa Assessments™ and the Cognitive Abilities Test™ (CogAT). While each provides meaningful data on its own, together they can unlock a deeper understanding of student learning when interpreted side-by-side.
