How the ISIP Math reports it

ISIP Math is an Istation adaptive assessment built on a blended content framework rather than a single external testing consortium. Its technical report says the item bank draws from NCTM domains, Common Core State Standards, and multiple state standards, with Texas TEKS specifically governing personal financial literacy. The technical report also enumerates an NCTM-derived list of reasoning domains (number sense, operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, data analysis, plus probability/statistics, ratios and proportional relationships, and PFL); the operational reporting domains students are scored on, however, are the grade-banded set published on Istation's 'Math Domains and Skills' help page and reproduced in this coverage_map.

Blueprint & weighting

Istation publishes no per-domain item-percentage blueprint for ISIP Math; it is a computer-adaptive assessment whose item selection is driven by student ability rather than a fixed-form domain distribution.
