ABOUT MUBAKKIR

Mubakkir™ is a suite of individually administered tests designed to help schools and teachers determine how early readers are performing on critical pre-literacy and early literacy skills.  Mubakkir gives teachers a powerful and easy-to-use tool for acquiring student data to inform effective instruction and intervention.

How Does it Work?

The test is given one-to-one, and uses a mobile app and printed reading sheets. Students read aloud while the teacher uses an iPad to monitor and record performance. Mubakkir is designed for both native and non-native Arabic language learners of any age, beginning through intermediate levels.

Reports are available for individuals, classes, and schools. Reports have intuitive graphical formats for each sub-skill tested, as well as comparative and longitudinal data for individual students, classes, and schools. Scores for each test are automatically calculated and recorded and are available immediately.
