Phone-based assessments gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic as an alter-
native to in-person assessments and as a consequence of growing concerns over monitoring children’s learning during this extended period of school closures (Sobers, Anicet, Tanoh, Akpe, Ball and Jasinska, 2021). As a result of social distancing protocols during the pandemic, phone-based assessments were employed to measure the increase in learning levels on account of these interventions. This required the assessments to be adapted from their in-person versions, ensuring their administration across the telephone. This paper establishes the equivalence between a phone-based survey and an in-person survey.
