Security Concerns and Procedures

Maintaining assessment security is one of your most important responsibilities as a test administrator.

•At all times, district and state procedures for protecting secure assessment materials should be followed.

•You are responsible for ensuring the security of not only the physical test booklets and answer folders but also the individual assessment questions and materials.

•Your responsibility for maintaining the security of the assessment questions and materials continues throughout the entire testing window and through the return of testing materials.

•Under no circumstances should students have access to assessment materials before or after the assessment session.

•All grades 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12 test booklets are individually numbered with secure barcodes.

•All WESTELL/ELDA materials must be accounted for throughout the assessment.

•BOTH USED AND UNUSED test materials must be returned to Measurement Incorporated after testing

Grade K is ORANGE

Grades 1-2 are Red

Grades 3-5 are GREEN

Grades 6-8 are BLUE

Grades 9-12 are PURPLE

* School Test Coordinators must ensure that the information on Student Answer Folders is completed in a secure manner.



During each assessment administration, a test administrator must be in the room at all times.

Things to Remember

Before You Begin:

•Verify that you have received the correct number of assessment materials from your STC.

•Gather and organize all necessary materials: student test materials, supply of sharpened # 2 pencils (pens may not be used), the Administration Manual, Speaking Scoring Guide, prompting cassettes, and silent work for students.

•Arrange for a quiet, comfortable, well-lighted, distraction-free setting in which to assess students.

•Decide whether to give students breaks between the assessment sessions.

•Be aware that if assessment groups exceed the numbers specified for each section of the assessment, a proctor must be present in addition to the test administrator.

Administration

Assessment Room Preparation

Arrive at the assessment room early to make sure that it is ready for the assessment session.

•Assessment materials not in use should be stored securely and away from students.

•Before the students arrive, do the following (the STC must ensure that the following is carried out in a secure manner):

•Apply pre-printed Student ID labels to Student Answer Folder (if applicable)

•For each student that does not have a pre-printed Student ID label, complete all required demographic information on each student’s answer folder.

Assessment Room

PreparationIf MI will score the Speaking test for your district, the STCs should follow the procedures below:

• If you have a pre-ID label for the student, apply the label with the barcode beginning “SR” to the Speaking Response Tape.

• If you do NOT have a pre-ID label for the student, apply a generic label marked “Speaking Response Tape Label” to the student's Speaking Response Tape.

• In either case, the last 5 digits of the barcode number on the tape label should match the last 5 digits of the barcode number on the student's answer document label.

•This information MUST match in order for MI to assign the correct Speaking scores to the student.

NOTE: You should also write the student’s name on his/her Speaking Response Tape using permanent marker, but you must follow the steps above to ensure accurate scoring.

The following testing materials will be used in addition to the ELDA Test Administration Manual:

•Listening Prompt Cassette or Compact Disc

•Speaking Prompt Cassette or Compact Disc

•Speaking Scoring Guide

•Header Sheet

You will be shipped the following materials for each student:

•One test booklet containing the Reading and Writing Tests

•One test booklet containing the Listening and Speaking Tests

•Student Answer folder

•Pre-printed labels


Grades 3-12

Check the assessment room for possible assessment question “clues” prior to each assessment session.

•Charts, maps, and other materials in the classroom that could assist students with assessment items should be covered or removed prior to the assessment administration.

Give each student a work space that is large enough to accommodate an open test booklet.

•Work spaces should be cleared of all other materials.

•Students should be separated by a reasonable distance to encourage independent work and to prevent collaboration.

•Plan to provide two # 2 pencils with erasers for each student and to have extra pencils on hand.


Scripted Directions

Oral scripts for each of the four assessments are in Appendices A-D of the Test Administration Manual.

The scripts include information on preparing for the administration, specific directions for administering each assessment, and oral scripted materials to be read aloud to students.

The oral scripts should be reviewed by all test administrators prior to the assessment session.

The scripted directions that are in bold print must be read verbatimto students.

Appendix A = Reading ELDA Script

the Speaking Assessment

Directions for Administering the Speaking Test

• At the start of the Speaking test, pass out the test booklets.

• Each student should receive one test booklet.

• Students may NOT open the test booklet until directed to do so.

• Students will respond orally to audio prompts.

• Test administrators should score the student’s responses in real time as they are spoken.*

• Use the Speaking Scoring Guide to aid in scoring.

• Record the scores on page 8 of the student’s answer document.

• Collect each student’s test booklet and answer document before dismissing students.

• *Note: If you are recording student responses for MI to score, minimize background noise so that each student can be heard clearly on his or her Speaking Response Tape. Otherwise correct scores may not be assigned.

General Procedures During Assessment Administration

•For each test, give the student the test booklet that will be used and the answer folder.

•Explain to students that they will be taking a test. Inform them that they need to be quiet and that if they have questions, they should raise their hands.

•If necessary, the test administrator may repeat the directions or answer questions regarding the directions for all students who have difficulty understanding or following the directions.

•Test directions should be repeated verbatim whenever possible. If the directions must be simplified, the simplification must adhere to the intent of the directions and should not provide any additional information.

•Students should be encouraged to complete all exercises and questions and not to leave anything blank.


•When the assessment session has begun, check that students are marking and writing their answers in the appropriate places on their answer folders.

•Test administrators should not interfere with the students’ concentration as they check students’ progress.

•Except on the Speaking section, students are not allowed to talk during the administration of the assessment. Direct students who finish the assessment before the other students to remain silent.

•Teachers will provide materials for students to work on after they finish the test and close their booklets.

•Toward the end of the assessment period, but while students still have their test booklets, it is good assessment practice to remind students to complete the entire assessment.

•It is inappropriate to review a student’s test booklet after it is handed in and then give it back to the student with instructions to complete the assessment. This action would constitute a breach of test security.

•When all students have completed the assessment, collect the remaining test booklets.

•Do not allow any student to leave the room until his or her test booklet has been collected. Collect a test booklet from each student individually. Do not allow students to “pass around” assessment materials.

•Allow students who have finished the assessment to work quietly at their desks. Have a supply of generic silent work to distribute to these students.

•Immediately after the assessment, and before dismissing students, carefully count the test booklets to ensure that you have collected all student materials.


•Take a replacement answer folder from the overage supply if you have one.

•Print the student’s name on the new answer folder.

•Direct the student to continue with the new answer folder.

•Staple the student’s replacement answer folder to the original.

•After the assessment, return all of the student’s used testing material (defective and replacement) with the other testing materials.

A student might receive an incomplete or defective answer folder. Instruct the student to raise his or her hand and then follow the steps below with the student.

General Procedures During

Assessment Administration

Accommodations

Procedures for Students with Accommodations

•Accommodations that change the content of the assessment are NOT allowable. For example, it is inappropriate to define words used in the writing or reading passages, any other stimulus materials, or the assessment questions.

•Accommodations in the administration procedures for ELDA are allowable provided that they are specified in a student’s IEP or 504 plan and provided for the ELDA. A student’s assessment results should reflect her or his true ability and should not be influenced by inappropriate accommodations.

•Any accommodations for an individual must be specified before the student takes the assessment and must be documented in the student’s IEP. Contact your District Coordinator for additional state guidelines on accommodations for the ELDA.

Accommodations should always be related to the student’s specific disability.

•Computerized Assessment:

Students may use a computer to type their responses instead of writing in the answer folder. Spell check, glossaries, grammar check, dictionaries and thesauruses are not allowed on the ELDA. Word processed responses should be stapled into the student’s original answer folder.

If a student with disabilities takes the ELDA, the administration of the assessment should be under standardized assessment conditions. Only those accommodations listed below or specifically identified in the student’s IEP or 504 plan may be provided. The following accommodations may be provided to students with disabilities on the ELDA (in addition to any accommodations specified in the student’s IEP or 504 plan.):


•Dictation of Responses: Students who are unable to write due to a disability are allowed to dictate their responses to a transcriber or into an audio recorder for the Reading and Listening ELDA. The student’s answers should be transferred onto the student’s original answer folder. A scribe may not be used for the Writing ELDA.

•Extended/Adjusted Time: The ELDA is an untimed assessment. For students whose attention span or behavior interferes with regular testing sessions, test administration may be altered to allow for a number of shorter testing sessions. Testing may also be stopped and continued at a later time if behavior interferes with the testing session. The time of day the test is administered may also be adjusted to be most beneficial to the student. All testing sessions MUST be completed within the allotted testing window.

•Individual/Small Group Administration: Tests may be administered to a small group or an individual requiring more attention than can be provided in a large group administration.


Modified Test Booklets

•Braille and Large Print versions of the grades 3-12 Reading and Writing ELDA only are available upon request.

•If students within your school require modified assessment materials, contact your District Test Coordinator.

•District Test Coordinators should contact Measurement Incorporated to order these materials.
