More and more states are including listening in their literacy tests. For example, states that participate in The SBAC, Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium, assess students using short, nonfiction audio clips where students are expected to listen, interpret and evaluate material presented orally. With Listenwise, students develop familiarity with questions similar to those presented on state assessments and experience listening online.
