[Fiction Express] Alignment with GET Assessments: how to prepare your students

The Fiction Express methodology is designed to develop the key reading skills assessed in the GET (Global Education Test). Thanks to its structured, data-driven approach, it supports students from literal comprehension through to critical thinking.

🎯 Why is this alignment important?

GET assessments evaluate not just reading, but how students understand, interpret and reflect on texts.

Fiction Express develops these skills naturally through:

  • Active and participatory reading
  • Continuous assessment (automated + teacher-led)
  • Written production and critical thinking

🧩 How GET aligns with Fiction Express

The table below shows how each GET process is developed within Fiction Express:

GET Process Assessment Objective Skills Assessed Assessment Methodology Fiction Express Application Assessment Method Metrics / Criteria

🔄 A structured classroom process

The methodology follows a clear learning journey:

  • Reading + quizzes → literal comprehension and fluency

This ensures that all GET-assessed skills are developed as part of everyday classroom practice.
