Improve How You Conduct EGRA with Insights from Room to Read and New SurveyCTO Features

The ability to read and understand written text is one of the most fundamental skills. Yet in many countries, children enrolled in school for as many as six years are unable to do so. The Early Grade Reading Assessment (EGRA) offers a low-cost and effective way to measure literacy that can easily be adapted to different countries and languages. And now, EGRA can be effectively deployed on SurveyCTO, along with SurveyCTO’s data quality and security features.

This webinar presented SurveyCTO’s new EGRA support and shared valuable lessons on how to conduct better reading assessments using SurveyCTO and other tools. A member of the support team will moderated a 20-minute presentation given by Room to Read and then opened the discussion to questions. 

You’ll learn the following:

• Room to Read’s experience in promoting literacy and approach for running EGRA across various tools.
• Room to Read’s response to adapting work in the context of COVID-19.
• How to execute EGRA subtasks on SurveyCTO, such as letter identification, familiar word reading, nonword reading, and oral reading fluency with comprehension.
