Lucid RAPID
Quick, whole-class dyslexia screening
Ages: 4-15 years
Time: 15 minutes
Test format: GL Ready online platform
Rapid is made up of three sub-tests:
- Phonological processing (4-15 years)
- Working memory (4-15 years)
Depending on age, the third subtest is either:
- Phonic decoding skills (8-15 years)
or
- Visual-verbal integration memory (4-7 years)
RAPID is the solution for quick class screening for dyslexia or literacy learning difficulties in students in Pre-Year 1 to Year 9. It has three enjoyable and non-threatening tests that are sensitive cognitive indicators of dyslexia/a specific learning disability.
Each screening component has been individually standardised to maximise accuracy in detecting dyslexia and to prevent children 'slipping through the net'.
Reports include a clear indication of the probability of dyslexia and are available immediately after testing.
Lucid CoPS
Child-friendly early dyslexia screening
Ages: 4-8 years
Time: 45 - 60 minutes
Test format: GL Ready online platform
Tests:
- Phonological Awareness (4-8 years)
- Phoneme Discriminator (4-8 years)
- Auditory Short Term Memory (4-8 years)
- Visual Short Term Memory (4-8 years)
- Visual and Verbal Sequencing (4-8 years)
CoPS is a leading assessments system for children aged 4-8 and is currently used in over 6,000 schools in the UK and around the world. CoPS can help teachers identify dyslexia and many other cognitive difficulties that can interfere with a child's learning.
CoPS comprises nine tests of fundamental cognitive skills that underpin learning. Each test is presented as an attractive and enjoyable game that takes about five minutes. Results, in the form of graphical profiles and individual response records, clearly show children's strengths and weaknesses. Percentiles, standard scores and age equivalent scores are provided, helping to identify potential problems at an early stage.
Lucid LASS Primary (8-11)
Identify dyslexic tendencies & other learning needs
Ages: 8-11 years
Time: 30 minutes
Test format: GL Ready online platform
Tests Primary (8-11):
- Working memory
- Phonological awareness
- Phonological processing
- Reasoning
- Single word, sentence and non-word reading
- Spelling
LASS is a multifunctional assessment system designed to highlight differences between actual and expected literacy levels. LASS is adaptive, so assessments are as brief as practicable without losing their accuracy. It is available in two versions: Primary for ages 8-11, and Secondary for 11-15.
Reports show percentiles, standard scores and age equivalents (including reading and spelling ages). Results show children's strengths and weaknesses in comparison with (UK) national norms. Use of a standardised graphical profile makes it easy to spot students who are underperforming.
Any difficulties of a dyslexic nature or caused by underlying cognitive problems in phonology and/or memory can be quickly identified. Assessment can be carried out on a regular basis to monitor progress.
Lucid RECALL
Evaluate the speed & efficiency of working memory
Ages: 7-16 years
Time: 20-30 minutes
Test format: Digital
Tests: RECALL consists of three subtests
- Phonological loop - assessed by a word recall test
- Visuo-spatial sketchpad - assessed by a pattern recall test
- Central executive function - assessed by a counting recall test
The program also measures the speed and efficiency of working memory (Processing speed).
RECALL swiftly identifies students who require classroom intervention strategies to help them to learn effectively because of working memory difficulties.
RECALL assesses the fundamental working memory functions identified by leading international researchers including Professor Alan Baddeley. It's easy to use, fully automated, requires minimal supervision and needs no input from the teacher.
Lucid LADS+
Quick and accurate identification of dyslexia in adults and children aged 15+ years
Ages: 15+ years
Time: 25 - 30 minutes
Test format: Digital
LADS Plus is a digital assessment to screen for dyslexia in members of the general population aged 15+ years which may include: those who have non-standard educational backgrounds; low general ability; and/or poor English language skills - including young offenders or prisoners.
Taking just 25–30 minutes to administer, this adaptive assessment generates a simple graphical report which indicates whether the individual falls into the dyslexic 'risk' category. The Administrator's Manual provides guidelines on interpreting results, including strategies for supporting dyslexic adults in different educational and occupational settings.
LADS Plus comprises non-verbal and verbal reasoning assessments, and three dyslexia-sensitive sub-tests covering word recognition (lexical decoding involving speeded recognition of real words from non-words), word construction (speeded lexical encoding of non-words from syllables) and working memory.
Lucid LASS Secondary (11-15)
Identify dyslexic tendencies & other learning needs
Ages: 11-15 years
Time: 45 minutes
Test format: Digital
Tests Secondary (11-15):
- Visual memory
- Auditory-verbal memory
- Phonic reading skills
- Phonological processing ability
- Single word reading
- Sentence reading
- Spelling
- Reasoning
