Current IDEL® Research ProjectsIDEL Reliability Study in Mexico
IDEL Fluidez en los Sonidos Iniciales (FSI)Research on IDEL FSI is currently being conducted in US public schools that utilize a bilingual model of literacy instruction. The objective of this study is to analyze whether the IDEL FSI measure is a stronger predictor of students' phonemic awareness and alphabetic principle skills in the spring of kindergarten than the IDEL FSF (Fluidez en la Segmentación de Fonemas) measure. IDEL for Grades 4–6There is a high demand from educators currently using IDEL for benchmark and progress monitoring materials for grades 4–6. DMG understands the need for these materials and is currently in the early stages of developing probes for older Spanish-speaking students.

During the 2007-2008 school year, longitudinal data are being collected on over 400 students in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the reliability and validity of the IDEL® measures in a Spanish-speaking country. The study is made possible by a partnership with the Guanajuato Ministry of Education and by the help of student data collectors from the Benemérita Escuela Normal Primaria de Guanajuato.
