DORA - Diagnostic Online Reading Assessment
Overview
- Overview
-
DORA, the Diagnostic Online Reading Assessment from Let’s Go Learn, examines reading components such as phonemic awareness, phonics, word recognition, vocabulary, spelling, fluency, and comprehension. Teachers use the resulting profile to identify instructional needs.
A reading profile combines several component measures. Literacy teams retain the component, administration, and learner context when selecting support. Data teams preserve the original measure and scoring context when results are matched with other records. Scores from different instruments are not automatically interchangeable.

The DORA series expands reading into multiple sub-tests. Reading ability is made up of many skills: comprehension strategies, vocabulary, sight-word recognition, phonics, spelling, phonemic awareness, and more. Within each of these areas, a specific level can be found that identifies the ideal starting point for each student. These points, also known as a student’s zone of proximal development, should never be defined by a student’s grade level. They are determined by what each student actually can and cannot do based on a set of test items, not on single questions. Single-question adaptive logic is the hallmark of screeners and summative tests’ analysis of students. They make recommendations based on the data of the many, not the actual data of the one.
