The iLEAP tests are administered in grades 3, 5, 6, and 7 and align with Louisiana’s content standards, benchmarks, and Grade-Level Expectations in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. The iLEAP was developed in response to No Child Left Behind, the current federal education act, and replaced The Iowa Tests.The iLEAP is referred to as an “integrated” LEAP because it combines a norm-referenced test, which compares a student’s test results to the performance of students in a national sample, with a criterion-referenced test, which reports student results in terms of the state’s achievement levels. Students are graded along the achievement levels of Unsatisfactory to Advanced as outlined below.Advanced- A student at this level has demonstrated superior performance beyond the level of mastery.Mastery A student at this level has demonstrated competency over challenging subject matter and is well prepared for the next level of schooling.Basic - A student at this level has demonstrated only the fundamental knowledge and skills needed for the next level of schooling.Approaching Basic - A student at this level has only partially demonstrated the fundamental knowledge and skills needed for the next level of schooling.Unsatisfactory - A student at this level has not demonstrated the fundamental knowledge and skills needed for the next level of schoolingThe iLEAP tests include mostly multiple-choice questions, but also include some constructed-response items that require students to compose an answer and generally require higher-order thinking. The iLEAP tests are administered in April, during the same week as the LEAP and Graduation Exit Exam tests are given. The iLEAP is not considered a high stakes promotional test like the 4th and 8th grade LEAP tests.Source: iLEAP - Louisiana Department of Education.
