Abstract
The program is supported by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) through the USAID/Liberia ABE: ACCESS IDIQ Contract. The program's main objective is to accelerate the learning process for Liberian children, particularly in the areas of literacy, numeracy, science, and social studies. The program's assessment and placement process is based on a Level 3 Completion Assessment, which is designed to evaluate students' knowledge and skills in various subjects. The assessment consists of an individual oral assessment, a whole group test administration, and a language arts completion assessment. The assessment is divided into several sections, including reading, English language arts, math, science, and social studies. The assessment process involves several steps, including scoring the student responses, comparing them to the correct answers, and determining the student's placement level. The scoring system is based on a percentage of correct responses, with 70% or more considered a passing score. The assessment results are used to determine the student's placement level, which can range from Level 1 to Level 3. The Level 3A Completion Test is a specific assessment tool used to evaluate students' knowledge and skills in language arts. The test consists of several sections, including identifying compound words, circling the root of words, placing "an" or "a" before words, and circling the best punctuation to complete sentences. The test also includes sections on identifying simple past tense verbs, circling homophones, and rewriting sentences to remove double negatives. The assessment results are used to inform instruction and improve the quality of education in Liberia. The program's goal is to accelerate the learning process for Liberian children and improve their knowledge and skills in various subjects. The program's assessment and placement process is designed to be fair and accurate, and the results are used to make data-driven decisions about instruction and program improvement. The program's geographic focus is Liberia, and the context is the country's education system. The program's timeframes are not specified, but the assessment and placement process is designed to be ongoing, with regular evaluations and assessments to monitor student progress and program effectiveness. The program's recommendations are not specified, but the assessment results are used to inform instruction and improve the quality of education in Liberia.
