Powerful Indicators for Improving Student Outcomes
Over the last decade, DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills) have changed the educational landscape--providing accurate, timely benchmark and progress monitoring information to ensure students receive targeted instructional support. This premier universal assessment system has been embraced by educators across the country and used as a tool to help thousands of students reach their full academic potential.
What is DIBELS Next?
DIBELS Next represents a breakthrough revision, based on new research conducted over 4 years on over 25,000 students in 90 schools throughout the United States, as well as consumer feedback. DIBELS Next retains the best of DIBELS, but has been updated to increase ease of use and accuracy of results.
DIBELS Next measures are brief, powerful indicators of foundational early literacy skills that: ? Are quick and efficient to administer and score ? Serve as universal screening (or benchmark assessment) and progress monitoring ? Identify students in need of intervention support ? Evaluate the effectiveness of interventions ? Support the RtI/Multi-tiered model
What are the significant changes in DIBELS Next?
? First Sound Fluency replaces Initial Sound Fluency as an easy-to-administer, reliable measure of early phonemic awareness.
? Daze, a new comprehension measure based on maze procedures, has been added for grades three through six.
? All new DIBELS Oral Reading Fluency passages that have been field-tested with students and are empirically leveled.
? Revised Nonsense Word Fluency measures the alphabetic principal and foundational phonics, with new directions and scoring rules to include the number of whole words read correctly.
Other new features include:
? More clear and concise directions and scoring rules ? New arrangement of items to increase reliability of scores ? Checklists of common response patterns to facilitate targeted instruction ? New reliability and validity data on all measures, including correlations between DIBELS Oral Reading
Fluency and a NAEP reading fluency passage ? New user-friendly format
DIBELS Next Assessment Manual
This DIBELS Next Assessment Manual provides: ? an overview of how DIBELS Next measures align with basic early literacy skills ? general guidelines on the administration and scoring of the DIBELS Next measures, and how to interpret results ? specific administration and scoring procedures for each measure ? a pronunciation guide, practice scoring sheets and answer keys, assessment accuracy checklists, and sample statements and parent letters
Anyone who administers DIBELS Next or uses DIBELS Next scores should read this manual.
