AIMSweb

Description

With the new Palm Link application for AIMSweb, CBM data capture and upload is quick, accurate, and efficient. AIMSweb Palm Link provides users with the ability to administer and score CBM assessments on Handheld/PDA devices and electronically upload scores to AIMSweb.

With Palm Link installed on a Palm Powered Handheld, easily load assessments and student rosters from AIMSweb onto your device. Select a student and measure and the administrator copy of the assessment will appear on the Handheld screen. Palm Link includes a built in timer and allows you to administer and score the test directly on the PDA by simply marking errors on the screen. Scores are calculated automatically and stored.

When you are done testing, connect the Handheld/PDA to your computer and the Palm Link software automatically uploads the data to AIMSweb.

Palm Link software eliminates hand data entry, manual score calculation, scoring on paper, and the need for an external timer.

AIMSweb Palm Link is part of the Data Capture Tools subscription option and is available for use with AIMSweb Pro progress monitoring systems.
