From Canada to Bahrain to Finland and more, Twitter is abuzz as schools participate this spring in PIRLS 2016 and ePIRLS 2016. PIRLS assesses reading achievement, while ePIRLS, new for 2016, monitors how well students read, interpret, and critique online information. Their results will be released in late 2017.
