How Does It Work?

Utilizing Dr. David Shin’s SubSCALE (Subscale Score/Cut-Score Achievement Level Estimation) program, Perspective reports feature Learning Locators™ that link student assessment results to appropriate enrichment or remediation resources. Student scores are calculated by the SubSCALE program and assigned a score profile. Students with similar score profiles are then grouped together and assigned a Learning Locator for each subject area tested.

Learning Locators are printed on individual student reports (ISRs) with directions to the Perspective online resources site. There, students enter their Learning Locators and receive rich media resources targeted to their needs.


The Perspective site features games, worksheets, interactivities, videos, etc. from our sister business units Scott Foresman, Prentice Hall, Penguin, FEN, and Teacher Vision along with trusted partners.
