What’s New in Accelerated Reader Renaissance Place 7.6

The primary focus for the Accelerated Reader™ Renaissance Place™ 7.6 version is to make product enhancements including: making alternate book levels more apparent to users by renaming alternate book levels ATOS 100 and ATOS 2000, adding an option to report on 90% correct in the Schoolwide Summary Report adding a Quiz Allowing preference, and changing the Book Voting preference default.

Reports
•   In an attempt to be consistent throughout our products and to make alternate book levels more

     apparent to users of other reading measures, Alternate Book Level 1 and 2 have been

     renamed to ATOS 100 and ATOS 2000. The customer still has the ability to change the

     default.
•   To aid in the calculation of Renaissance Learning certification achievements, the Reading

     Practice Diagnostic Report and the Schoolwide Summary Report now have the option to

     report on 90% correct in addition to 85% correct.
