"I just wanted to let you know we have been very pleased with the software. The training our district received was excellent! The superintendent has been impressed with the assessment reports. We have been happy to share our positive experience with other schools in our county. I can't imagine why everyone doesn't use this software - it is so easy and frees up so much extra time! It has been a very positive experience working with your company".

"Using mCLASS^®:Reading software has changed how our teachers think and talk about reading."

John Canuel
Director of Instructional Services
Jefferson County, CO

"The price of the (PDA) and the price per (student) that we pay to have access to (mCLASS software) is nothing compared to the amount of time, energy, (and) paper (potentially wasted). (Time) saved that goes back into direct instruction for kids is priceless -- you cannot buy that time back. The value I've seen this year (from mCLASS software) has been phenomenal."

"mCLASS^® software allows our schools to spend more time on data analysis and less time on assessment administration. By not having to manipulate so many different pieces – the clipboard, the testing materials, and the stopwatch – mCLASS^®:DIBELS^® software makes it much easier to administer the DIBELS^® assessment. Whatever it takes for my reading coaches to be more efficient to do their job, I think it's well worth the investment."

Cynthia Asia
Area Director of Instruction
Putnam County Public Schools, FL

“This is our second year using mCLASS^® software. We absolutely love it! I feel extremely confident that our results are accurate and consistent because of using the handhelds. One of our assessment team members is a retired school teacher with very little technology experience; she was able to use the handheld and administer the DIBELS^® with very little difficulty.

One time, I ended up having to administer four assessments by hand because those children were absent on the days I was able to test. What a difference! I really noticed how spoiled I am!”

Jadee Blumenstock
Reading Coach, River Breeze Elementary
Putnam County Public Schools, FL

"Our teachers and assessment teams will never go back to paper-pencil DIBELS^® . They are thrilled with the ease of the handheld, the reliability and consistency of the assessment, and the immediacy of the data. mCLASS^®:DIBELS^® software lets us have the time to teach and make the instructional changes we need to make. We feel like we are making a real difference with our kids in the quickest turnaround time."

Debbie Warner
Coordinator of Elementary Reading & Curriculum
Seminole County Public Schools, FL

“After the first testing, everyone says that administering the DIBELS^® assessments is so much easier with mCLASS^® software. They really like it.”

John Shreve
Reading Coach,Wicklow Elementary
Seminole County Public Schools, FL

"We wanted a system that makes it quicker to administer the DIBELS^® while making sure the scores were as reliable and valid as possible. With mCLASS^®:DIBELS^® software it's a lot easier to administer the assessment because you don't have to manipulate the paper, pencil, and timer. The teachers can actually look at the details of the probe, see where student errors were made, and identify exactly where instruction should be. The scores are posted within 24 hours on the PMRN so you can get access to those reports in a much timelier manner than with the paper-pencil DIBELS. Plus, if you have any questions, you can always get help from the support team. Wireless Generation is there walking you through it all the way."

"[Teachers] like [mCLASS:DIBELS] and the data is at their fingertips. The Act Tab activities are easy to use and they do not have to go hunt an activity up that matches the child's needs.  If we were to take the [PDAs] away today we would have very unhappy teachers! The students also like [mCLASS:DIBELS] for the activities and they like to see their gains."

"I would recommend that every school use mCLASS^®:DIBELS^® software. As a coach I use it more than anyone and I love the immediate results I get with this assessment. My teachers also love the immediate feedback and reports that the assessment gives them. We have seen such an improvement in our students. Also, the progress monitoring for the intensive students is a great and easy way to watch our students in areas that they are struggling in. Schools that do not use mCLASS:DIBELS software should seriously look into getting the program!"

“I appreciate having concrete direction to follow as a result of testing. I know that if my students are struggling with fluency, I can adjust my teaching, and I have seen a big difference in the progress of my students.”

Robyn Milinazzo
Edgewood Elementary
Moriarty Municipal Schools, NM

“I enjoy using the handheld to give the test. The kids like to take the test, and they are interested in the handheld. I like the one-on-one with each child. The results are so valuable. There were things I learned about my class that I had never before thought about. It opened my eyes to the way I teach reading.”

Tonya Newton
Edgewood Elementary
Moriarty Municipal Schools, NM

"It was great! I love the built-in timer, and lack of paperwork on our part. It was really easy to get the results. All I needed was one student book, and my handheld. I could assess whenever I had a few extra minutes. Our staff was afraid of this new technology, but even the teachers least computer literate are successful, and seem to appreciate how easy it is for them. Next benchmark should go real easy!"

Margaret Hoskins
Mesa View Elementary
Grants/Cibola School District, NM

“The help desk staff is terrific! Having all the data on a handheld is much better than managing all the paper! Keeping up with student test booklets is a big job for the data manager (me)!”

"Wireless Generation's software and services have made collection and utilization of test data exceptionally easy and productive.

Wireless Generation's vast services truly meet the needs of today's educators. At last here is a company who can deliver a product beneficial to teachers and students. "

Donna Le
Reading Coach, Pershing Elementary

“I am new to the school district. Therefore, I had questions as to how this progress monitoring would work. The handheld enables me to assess my students more quickly than a paper assessment. I wish that all required testing could be done using a handheld.”

Pamela Haynes-Macedo
Kindergarten Teacher, Cotteral Elementary
Guthrie Public Schools, OK

“I have taught for 32 years and have seen a lot of things come and go. mCLASS:DIBELS^® is one of the easiest things to administer, takes less time, and gives all the information you need 99% of the time. Administering it on the handheld is one of the best things I have seen.”

June Johnson
Reading Specialist, Achille Elementary
Achille Public Schools, OK

“What I like best about the handheld is it’s easy to use. I am an older teacher and had not been exposed to a lot of technology. I learned how to use the handheld without any difficulty. Another thing that I like about handheld is you can see student information without having to sift through a bulky file cabinet. The information is on the handheld and it’s very private. Information can be printed and used for parent-teacher conferences or for placement. “

Jean Wilbourn
Reading Coach, Justice Elementary
CO54 Justice, OK

"Having given the DIBELS^® assessment both with paper, pencil and stopwatch and with the Wireless Generation software on the handheld, there is no comparison between the two. The handheld is much easier to use and probably more accurate, as well. There is no fumbling around with a stopwatch, clipboard, booklet and pencil while giving the assessment. The handheld times each assessment automatically and even gives you the opportunity to make notes on a particular assessment. "

Jeanie Spangler
Reading Coach, Council Grove Elementary
Western Heights Public Schools, OK

“My school began using DIBELS^® on the handheld last spring and it has been a wonderful asset to our site. It has made the administration and interpretation of test data simple, understandable, usable, and most importantly, less time consuming than ever before. This device provides our staff with accurate up-to-date data that can be readily accessed to define the needs of our students and plan instruction. It makes our job easier by enabling us to educate our parents and help them better understand the needs their children may be facing in reading. “

Jama Hutchins
Reading Coach, Dustin Elementary
Dustin Public Schools, OK

"Administering the DIBELS^® on the handheld is a BIG time saver. There is no time in a teacher's day to waste, and the DIBELS on handheld is a quick and accurate assessment of a student's reading strengths and weaknesses. The assessment results can be quickly and easily used to change or modify the teacher's focus on instruction for a student. In other words, the results help the teacher individualize instruction for the student's needs. The-user friendly DIBELS on handheld is a brilliant, fantastic, great, and awesome tool for educators!!"

Nita Fowler
Reading First Coach, Washington Grade Center
Ada Public Schools, OK

"The use of the handheld has redefined testing as we know it and produced data that is more accessible than ever before. We welcome the new technology and value its contribution to our efforts in improving reading instruction at our school. Making assessments that are so quick and easy helps teachers to progress monitor each student and in turn understand the need for valuable monitoring of student learning in their classroom. "

Michelle Manley
Reading First Coach, Shidler Elementary
Oklahoma City Public Schools, OK

“In my thirty-two years of working with students, I would have never dreamed of using technology this way to assess students; but now having used the handheld, it just seems natural. Just assess, Hotsync, and keep it charged, and it will be your friend throughout assessment time. I think it is GREAT!!!!”

Lorene Eldred
Reading Coach, Central Elementary
Idabel Public Schools, OK

“As a twenty-year veteran teacher, I had to learn all the new laptop, desktop, gizmos and also the handheld. Any questions or problems I encountered were dealt with through the Wireless Generation helpline. A more efficient, friendly group of people cannot be found anywhere else in the United States! The Wireless Generation support group has been the most positive experience I have had using the mCLASS^® :DIBELS^® software. “

Vickie McCullah
Reading First Coach
Howe Public Schools, OK

"We feel using the software [mCLASS^® ] and handheld has empowered our teachers with a useful tool, that they have enjoyed learning to use. They can see how using mCLASS^® :DIBELS^® helps them to help their students. We have teachers that have been afraid to turn on their computers and now are becoming computer literate. It is wonderful to see. We now can say we do not dread the word 'assessment' anymore!!"

Paula Stevens
Reading Coach, George Early Childhood Center
Idabel Public Schools, OK

"Having the data easily accessible is the biggest benefit for me. I am able to discuss the results with my other coach. We then can target certain students or groups that are performing below expectation and meet with their teacher to discuss further action. It has enabled the principal to be more aware of the performance of the student body BEFORE outcomes. Wireless Generation and their software have made new gains in the education world."

Traci Hartley
Reading Coach, Fogarty Elementary
Guthrie Public Schools, OK

"It (mCLASS solutions and services) has been a very positive experience for us. I like the real-time data that we can immediately use. It has helped hone our focus so we can target our instruction in a more meaningful way."

Lynette Shouse
Reading First Grant Coordinator

"The important thing to know is that teachers must use the data to drive instruction (our teachers Progress Monitor struggling readers every few weeks) and adjust instruction accordingly. Professional Development in this area is vital and Wireless Generation has helped take us to the next level."

"(With the mCLASS^® :TPRI^® and mCLASS^® :Tejas LEE^® aggregate data) I can view the reports by teacher to make sure that they have finished administering their assessments. Then I can show the aggregate reports to the superintendent and say ‘This is where we stand.’"

Teri Rubens Walden
Elementary Language Arts Coordinator
Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD, TX

“Our teachers would unleash on us if we told them that we weren’t going to use [mCLASS^® :TPRI^® and mCLASS^® :Tejas LEE^® software] anymore. It expedites the whole process and greatly reduces paperwork. A teacher is able to finish assessing in a day or less, and everything is right there on the handheld”.

Regina Schneider
Language Arts Coordinator
Allen ISD, TX

"[mCLASS^®:CIRCLE™ software] has been really valuable for our teachers. After the tasks are administered, we start looking at the results and help the teachers integrate what they've learned from the assessments into their lesson plans. Unlike most of the other tools that are out there, [mCLASS:CIRCLE software] provides information that actually guides the teachers to the next step: classroom planning. That's the key for me."

Cheri Sherley
Texas Early Education Model (TEEM) Project Coordinator Mentor
University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, TX

"[With mCLASS^®:CIRCLE™ software] you truly have the opportunity to process the ultimate instructional cycle of planning, teaching and evaluation. This outcomes-based instructional tool helps you to really develop the skills (children) need in order to enter kindergarten and be successful as they learn to read. You get immediate feedback, and you are legitimately and intellectually informed about your children so you can improve on your teaching. My teachers use [the software] to create small groups, and really use the data to inform instruction. It empowers them, and opens up this whole other world "
