The ACT Reading test workshop focuses on the Reading test and is designed to address the needs of teachers who are looking for insight into how to increase student reading comprehension. Participants learn how to use ACT designed tools such as those used to evaluate reading passage complexity, design standards-aligned test questions, and evaluate cognitive complexity of tasks. They also complete a data review of the ACT reading test scores—all to help educators plan for stronger classroom-based reading comprehension instruction.

Learning Objectives

- Learn the ACT reading test design to gain a deeper understanding of how to prepare test-takers for the

assessment.

- Use the reading test section data to identify aggregated and disaggregated school or district-level strengths

and opportunities.

- Develop focused action steps to include in school improvement planning and to extend the impact and value

of the ACT for students and educators.

*** Participants should bring a device to access online materials during the workshop. ****
