Using Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) at the Secondary Level

Thursday, May 30, 2013 1pm CDT

CBM has a long-standing tradition for use as a scientifically-based, basic skills screening and progress monitoring tool at the elementary grades. However, despite years of small scale implementation, the use of CBM at the secondary level remains confusing for some and therefore is underutilized.

This presentation will provide background information on a range of topics relevant for using CBM at the secondary level, such as:

  • when schools should shift from universal to individual screening
  • which CBM measures work best or don’t work well as well with older students
  • the importance of using a standards-based approach for basic skills high school screening and goal setting for frequent progress monitoring.
