EUGENE, OR, UNITED STATES, October 15, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Avant Assessment is excited to announce that the premier language proficiency assessment, Avant STAMP (STAndards-based Measurement of Proficiency) offered in Spanish, English, and 50+ languages, can now seamlessly integrate with Ellevation. Ellevation is a leading platform supporting language learner educators across the nation. This powerful integration is tailored specifically to help educators better support their emerging multilingual students by enabling them to make data-driven instructional decisions.

Streamlined Data for Stronger Support Systems

With this integration, educators using Ellevation can now access their students' Avant STAMP assessment data directly within the platform, providing a comprehensive view of language learners’ progress. Whether students are part of Dual Language Immersion, Bilingual Education, or World Language programs, their STAMP results can now sit alongside other critical assessment data in Ellevation, enabling educators to make more informed decisions that drive student outcomes.

Growing Need to Support English Learners Nationwide

As of Fall 2021, approximately 5.3 million English learners were enrolled in U.S. public elementary and secondary schools, representing 10.6% of the total K-12 student population. This percentage has increased over the last decade, highlighting the growing importance of providing tailored support to this group of students (National Center for Education Statistics) (Migration Policy Institute).

Empowering Educators with Enhanced Insights

Districts, administrators, and teachers will now be able to see a fuller picture of each student's language proficiency, making it easier to personalize instruction, track progress, and collaborate across educational teams. Increased visibility supports the mission of both Avant and Ellevation to improve learning outcomes for multilingual learners by equipping educators with the tools they need to build exceptional student support systems. This empowers teachers to monitor progress together and helps them grow and develop programs that produce high levels of proficiency.

David Bong, CEO and Co-Founder of Avant, emphasized, “By connecting Avant STAMP data with Ellevation’s platform, we are taking a significant step toward enhancing the ability of schools and districts to support all of their language learners. This integration will help educators more effectively access and use data on language proficiency to impact classroom instruction and ensure that students receive the targeted support they need.”

Marion Kennedy Amos, President of Ellevation, said, “We’re thrilled to provide educators with deeper, more actionable data that empower them to support multilingual learners more effectively. With expanded access to data, teachers can make more informed decisions, personalize instruction, and ultimately help all students thrive in a diverse and evolving educational landscape.”

We currently offer language tests in 40 languages, and counting - adding more each year.
