Research & Evaluation
Research Summary
Several studies have examined the psychometric properties of Star Reading and Star Math assessments that are part of the Star 360 assessment suite and have shown "convincing evidence" regarding reliability and validity according to the National Center on Intensive Intervention. However, no peer-reviewed research has examined the Star 360 assessment system as a whole. Therefore, there is insufficient evidence to support Star 360 at this time.
