ITASCA, Illinois – Riverside Insights®, a leading developer of research-based assessments and analytics, today launched www.CogAT.com, a new microsite to support Riverside’s CogAT® in the Classroom initiative. This online portal provides resources to transform Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) assessment data into personalized classroom instruction that enables all students to thrive. Designed for teachers, administrators, and parents, CogAT.com tools support a positive learning environment by encouraging differentiated learning through a strengths-based lens.
“The data collected as part of CogAT is extremely powerful, yet most school districts are not optimizing its use to better understand how all students learn and then apply it in the classroom,” said Dr. Joni Lakin, professor from the University of Alabama and co-author of CogAT. “Riverside’s CogAT in the Classroom initiative makes it easier than ever to use CogAT data effectively in the classroom to maximize student growth. At CogAT.com, we provide the tools teachers, administrators, and parents need to better understand each student’s abilities, along with practical strategies that will benefit all students in the classroom.”
