Here are the facts about this exciting new assessment:

TILLS

WHY CHOOSE More comprehensive assessment.

TILLS is the only test that assesses both oral and written language with a unique framework that shows how these skills relate to each other. And TILLS gives you the complete picture of a student’s language and literacy skills in just one test, so there’s no need to administer multiple tests over multiple sessions.



Backed by unparalleled data.

Each TILLS subtest meets strong psychometric standards using scientific evidence gathered in pilot studies and field trials, a national beta trial, and a standardization study with more than 1,200 children and adolescents. (The chart to the right shows the test’s strong specificity and sensitivity data for each age level, not just an overall measure for the age ranges the test covers.)



Tracks progress clearly.

With TILLS, you can easily track changes in specific areas of concern and understand your students’ strengths and needs.



Curriculum relevant.

TILLS measures integrated language-literacy abilities that reflect the complex language and literacy demands of the general education curriculum.



Flexible and convenient.

TILLS works with your schedule. You can administer all 15 subtests, or choose the ones most relevant to individual students.

You can do them in one 70–90 minute session, two one-hour sessions, or two 45-minute sessions. You can even administer subtests in multiple sessions within a 4-week period—whatever works for you.
