- Select “Testing Sections” from your Dashboard navigation menu.
- Confirm that the Testing Sections you see are what you expect.
- Select “Testing Dashboard” to view the details of each Section you will administer.
- Confirm the Section name and the Student list. You may need to scroll across multiple screens, so be sure to check the entire list.
- Use “Remove” for any Student listed who you know will not be taking the Test in that Section.
- Use “+ Add student” to include Students who are missing and in the same grade.
- The Testing Dashboard contains many useful features:
- The approximate Test Length for the grade-level Test.
- The controls for Open Login, Begin Test, Pause Test, and Close & Lock Test. NOTE: Pausing the Test stops all answer entry for all Students in the Testing Section. Their latest answers will be recorded upon Resuming the Test.
- Open Login Enables Students to log in to the Test and prepare to begin. A Student will be denied system access if they attempt to log in before you press this button.
- Begin Test Activates the Test for all logged-in Students in the Testing Section. This also sets the Time Start and begins the Time Remaining tiles. This is not a timer. These times are for your reference only and will NOT impact access to the Test.
- Pause Test Allows the Proctor to pause Students’ ability to answer questions. All current responses are stored for individual Students until the Test is resumed.
- Resume Test Will display after the Pause Test button is pressed. All data entry is suspended until the Proctor clicks this button.
- The ability for the Proctor to Generate and Download Passwords for all Students listed in the Testing Section. NOTE: These Student login credentials are generated uniquely each time this button is pushed. You MUST use the latest generated list for proper Student Password function.
- The ability to Remove a Student from a section — up until and even during the Test. NOTE: Removing a Student during the Test will wipe out any questions they’ve answered, and they will be able to start again once assigned to a new Testing Section.
- Student Status and Progress are automatically updated as Students log in, start the Test, and proceed through taking the Test.
