Text passages used for assessment should be comparable in difficulty to one another so that accurate comparisons can be made over time. A word should be counted as correct if it is pronounced correctly in context or if the student corrects an error within three seconds. Mispronunciations, omissions, substitutions, or pauses longer than three seconds should be counted as errors.
