Kentucky Adopts Lexile Framework for Reading

The Kentucky Department of Education has announced a partnership with MetaMetrics and the adoption of the Lexile® Framework for Reading and the Quantile® Framework for Mathematics.

Did you know that many of the digital resources provided through Kentucky Virtual Library (www.kyvl.org) contain the Lexile measure?  Lexile levels are provided for books profiled in Novelist, as well as magazines and journals available from EBSCO.  EBSCO’s Student Research Center, Kids Search and Searchasaurus interfaces for the K12 students have Lexile available as all searchable by Lexile reading level.  The Grolier Online encyclopedias also offer Lexile levels as a search option, and the reading level is listed for each article .

For details on the Kentucky agreement with  MetaMetrics® see the news release  LEXILE AND QUANTILE MEASURES TO BE AVAILABLE” for details.
