TerraNova and InView Assessments
The TerraNova is a series of standardized achievement tests used in the United States to assess grades 2-8 student achievement in reading, language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, vocabulary, spelling, and math computation. Achievement tests include content students may not have been specifically taught, but they could be expected to have mastered according to their cognitive ability. The InView is a cognitive ability aptitude test that measures verbal reasoning, sequences, analogies, and quantitative reasoning. Teachers and parents can use TerraNova and InView results to reliably measure skills and abilities essential for academic success, and help plan effective programs for students.
