Additionally, data about the utility of the manner of reporting TSA results, how results are currently used and could be improved, were collected and analyzed. The following four conclusions were drawn from the study: involve the International Reading Association and more teachers, continue but modify descriptors, disseminate results quicker, and make results more useful.
