Step 1: Choose Classes
Make sure the classes selected will be assessed with the same test items.
Select the Schools, Teachers and Classes to be included in this event.
Note: If classes do not appear, this means you are not assigned to any classes. Contact your District Admin for assistance.
Click the Step 2 button at the bottom of this screen.
Step 2: Test Event Details
Test Event Name: Name test events descriptively to ensure they can be identified easily by your administrator. Include school, teacher, age group, and semester. (Example: DemoESName567Spring19)
Dates: Set the start and end dates of the event as close as possible to the actual testing period. Why?
- The end date calculates a student’s age at the time of the assessment which is used to identify which standards the student is compared to.
- End date will also appear on the Student Report as the day the student completed the assessment.
- Data can be entered throughout the school year regardless of end date.
Self Assessment Checkbox: If your students are completing self-assessment, you can select this checkbox to track which tests were self-assessed.
Note: Test events cannot be created for previous school years.
Test Event Type: Select the Test Event Type that best corresponds with your assessment. Pre-test is typically selected for fall testing, post-test for spring, and other if you
test more than twice throughout the school year.
