From the author: Design details, operation, and initial field-test results are reported for DynaMath, a computer-based, dynamic assessment system that provides individual tailored, instructionally useful assessment of students with disabilities. DynaMath systematically organizes and outputs data on student performance on multidigit multiplication problems varying in difficulty and procedural demands entailed in solving multidigit problems. DynaMath graphically shows the "zone of proximal development," those problems most likely to prove susceptible to the next phase of instruction. The program also automatically records multiple measures of performance in a database and provides a printed clinical report with suggested instructional interventions. DynaMath provides a qualitative record of student performance via annotated real-time replay.
