Directions include sample items (similar to paper/pencil directions) Reminder to students how to respond to different item types All Proctor-led text is in the DFA errata Proctors may provide assistance with logging into the test only.

26. During Testing – Additional Testing Time 26 Coordinate with the School Assessment Coordinator to create a plan for accommodating students requiring additional testing time to complete the online assessment. Following are some examples: If the testing room/computer lab will remain available instruct those students who need additional time to use the Pause function. Excuse all students who have completed their tests; the other students may then resume the test session. Or, If the testing room/computer lab is not available and the student needs to be moved instruct those students who need more time to Pause and Exit their test. Excuse all students who have completed their tests. The students requiring additional time will need to have their Test Ticket and all other materials moved to another location by a staff member. If the student leaves the test via this method, the original test ticket will work on the same day of initial testing as well as any day after. Or, At any time, if the student exits the test via the End Test button, the Test Ticket will have to be reset.

27. During Testing Security 27 Cell phones, iPods ®, pagers and any other communication devices must be turned off and kept out-of-view and out-of-reach during testing sessions. Pause Function/Inactivity Students will have to re-login if they are on Pause or show no activity for more than 20 minutes. If it is less than 20 minutes they only need to click Resume. Upon re-logging in the original Test Ticket can be used. All testing irregularities must be reported to the School Assessment Coordinator who will complete a Testing Irregularity Report and make the necessary coding in eDIRECT. Resetting a Test Ticket: If a students test needs to be reset, the School Assessment Coordinator must be contacted.
