Measure reading motivation, supercharge reading habits

Beanstack’s Reading Motivation Index (RMI) builds on work conducted by the National Reading Research Center to measure reading motivation factors and make individualized recommendations.

This research proves that student scores are correlated with reading frequency and academic outcomes. The RMI will be the first of its kind, providing educators a guide to supercharge reading habits. 

With the RMI, you can:

  • Increase students’ independent reading.
  • Step in when motivation to read declines.
  • Strengthen collaboration between teachers, media specialists, parents, and administrators
