MetaMetrics® is focused on improving education for learners of all ages. They develop scientific measures of academic achievement and complementary technologies that link assessment results with real-world instruction.
For more than twenty years, their work has been increasingly recognized worldwide for its distinct value in differentiating
instruction and personalizing learning.
In the U.S., their research on postsecondary reading demands informed the Common Core State Standards for college- and career-readiness. The ELA Standards cite Lexile measures as key indicators of text complexity and provide recommended Lexile grade bands for reading development to ensure students are on track for college and career text demands.
Their products and services for reading, mathematics and writing provide unique insights about academic ability and the potential for growth, enabling students to achieve their goals at every stage of development. Lexile® measures have been adopted by nearly half the states and school districts in all 50 states. The use of their mathematics and writing measures continues to grow.
