IowaFlex™

An online benchmark testing experience tailored to each student’s ability level.

IowaFlex™ connects the high measurement standards of The Iowa Assessments™ to the flexibility of an adaptive testing experience.

Key Features:

This new assessment -- from the same trusted Iowa Assessments team -- offers a contemporary, adaptive format that delivers flexible measures of reading and math achievement to inform classroom instruction and measure student progress toward end-of-year mastery of core content.

IowaFlex can also be administered as a stand-alone, single subject test. Flexible administration allows schools and districts to track growth and proficiency throughout the school year.

Flexibility for Educators

Test as you teach

Select specific math domains to assess for each grade based on your school’s pacing
guide. Save what’s being taught later in the school year for assessment at a later date.

Schedule and test with minimal classroom disruption

Reading and Math tests take just 45 minutes to complete and can be scheduled 1-3 times
annually based on the needs of your measurement program.

Interact with all new analytics displays

Each display of data is tailored to the specific needs of a district administrator, school administrator, teacher, student, or family member. Drill down, disaggregate, filter, compare, isolate groups, and more.
