55. CMAS Student Registration There are several fields in the SR/PNP that are used to validate selected accommodations. – If an error is received upon import, check these fields. These can only be seen by PAnext users with the Sensitive Data role. 55

56. Emergency Accommodation A case where a student needs a new accommodation immediately due to unforeseen circumstances. Cases could include students who have a recently-fractured limb (e.g., arm, wrist, or shoulder); whose only pair of eyeglasses have broken; or a student returning from a serious or prolonged illness or injury. Emergency accommodation form must be completed and maintained in the district. Contact CDE if a student requires a paper-based administration. Refer to Appendix G of the PARCC Accessibility Features and Accommodations Manual online: Use of an Emergency Accommodation on a PARCC Assessment. Also use this form for Science and Social Studies. This will be identified in the Student’s Information through the User Interface. 56

57. PARCC: Student Accommodation Refusal Form If a student refuses an accommodation, the school should document in writing that the student refused the accommodation. Refer to Appendix H of the PARCC Accessibility Features and Accommodations Manual, online: Student Accommodation Refusal Form. The accommodation must be offered and remain available to the student during testing. School Test Coordinators should send a copy of the form to parents when a student refuses an accommodation documented in an IEP, 504 Plan, or EL Plan. Form must be maintained in the students record. 57

58. The Test Environment 58

59. Student-to-Test Administrator Ratio Student-to-Test Administrator ratio must not exceed 30 to 1 – Test Administrator must be able to actively monitor the space within the physical testing environment. Consider room configuration – Make special considerations for large testing environments or environments with complicated configurations. Test Administrators must: – Actively proctor. – Remain attentive and in the room during the entire testing section. – Circulate throughout the room during the test. Should be able to see students working, not student work 59

60. The Test Environment The testing environment must: Be adequately lit, quiet, free of distractions, and heated or cooled. Provide an adequate writing surface (paper-based). Be free of electronic devices and music. “Do Not Disturb/Only Authorized Personnel Allowed” sign must be placed on the door during test sessions. 60

61. The Test Environment No food or drinks are allowed on desks or near test materials. The testing environment must be free of any content related posters or aids that suggest possible answers to students: – Word walls – Steps for solving math equations – Any content related materials – Any resource that defines, explains, or illustrates terminology or concepts 61

62. The Test Environment Generally, posters that do not include content specific definitions, content related processes or solutions may remain on the wall. Timing Box (optional box around; other information required) Unit Name: Math Unit 1 Unit Testing Time: 90 Min Starting Time: 9:00 Stopping time: 10:30 62

63. Room Configuration Students should not be able to see each other’s work from a normal testing position. Consider the following seating configurations to maintain test security: – Seat students in every other seat (useful in a computer lab setup) – Arrange monitors back-to-back – Seat students back-to-back – Seat students in a semicircle (useful for schools using devices) – Seat students in widely spaced rows or in every other row (appropriate for a classroom setup) Dividing screens or other privacy materials may be used if students cannot be placed far enough away from each other. 63

64. Headphones PARCC ELA all students must have headphones for all Units. – Not every unit has sound, but 1 unit for each student will – Need to be prepared and adjust sound prior to each unit Text-to-Speech To be in a testing room with other students, headphones must be worn. Students may be tested separately if they are not able to wear headphones. Math, S/SS do not contain audio, unless TTS is used. 64

65. Unauthorized Visitors and the Media Only students, Test Administrators/Examiners, and authorized school, district, state personnel, or state- sanctioned test monitors may be in testing areas during administration. Media are not allowed to have access to the tests before, during, or after test administration, or take pictures or video of testing materials or testing students. Parents are not allowed in the testing room with their child. 65

66. Afternoon Testing If the school is having technology issues, do not start a unit/section unless there is enough time left in the day to complete the unit/section. It is a misadministration to start the test and then stop and complete it the next day. – This is only allowed for illness. 66

67. After Hours Testing If a school will test later than 4:30 PM provide CDE with a list of school and test sessions. These test sessions will need to be granted permission by CDE to test after hours. 67
