Calculating Running Records. Primary school teachers and other educators can use this free tool to calculate students running records. Scoring includes Error Ratio, Accuracy percentage, and Self-correction Ratio.
This online tool can help you produce quick and accurate scores for your reading assessments. All you have to do is enter running words, error numbers, and self-correction numbers, and this calculator will provide you with error/self-correction rates and an accuracy percentage.
Calculate reading levels accurately with Running Record Calculator. Better understand your students and improve their reading skills.
The running record calculator allows you to find the number of words per minute, error ratio, self-correction rate, accuracy, and reading level. All you need to provide is Time, the number of running words, the number of errors, and the number of self-corrections.
You can use accuracy rate to determine whether the text read is easy enough for independent reading, appropriate to use without frustration during reading instruction, or too difficult for the reader. The breakdown of these three categories is as follows: Accuracy Rate Chart
The information gathered while doing a running record is used to determine error, accuracy, and self-correction rates. Directions for calculating these rates are given below. The calculated rates, along with qualitative information and the child’s comprehension of the text, are used to determine a child’s reading level.
You can calculate the accuracy rate using the following formula: (Total words read – total errors) / total words read x 100 = Accuracy rate. (TW - E) / TW x 100 = AR. Example: (120 – 6) / 120 x 100 = Accuracy rate. 114/120 x 100 = Accuracy rate. .95 x 100 = 95%
