5. Incorrect test assignments If you find that a student is assigned an incorrect test (example-should be Math 8 instead of Algebra), let your SAC or principal know and they will contact the assessment office to get it changed! 5

6. Technology considerations Don’t use the Chrome browser for proctor caching. (Proctor caching video will be shared via email just prior to spring break) New desktop app!!! (reduces dependency on JAVA) 6

7. CDE directives Science/SS testing order- Be very careful that students test IN ORDER when taking the science and social studies assessments. The PAN system WILL allow you to test out of order but that will result in misadministration. Don’t give up on testing until you’ve included your DAC and Pearson in the troubleshooting process. Please keep track of ticket #’s! 7

8. CDE directives When students hit the submit button, they are done testing! There is no ability to “unsubmit” this year! (because of the new additions to the interface) 8

12. Review in TestNav 8 On any item in TestNav there is a Review button located in the top toolbar. At any time a student is able to click the Review button to see all questions in the section, and quickly identify questions they have “Not Answered” or “Bookmarked”. 12

Log Out of TestNav (To return to same unit/section) Steps for students who become ill during testing, or for units/sections that need to be transcribed: In the top right hand corner of your screen, select the gray button next to your name and choose the option “Logout of TestNav.” This message appears, “I want to exit this test and finish later.” Select the blue “Save and Return Later” button. 13

14. Log Out of TestNav (To return to same unit/section) This process also applies to students who are moving to a different device (possibly because of technical issues). Be sure to safely log out of the old device before logging into the new device. 14

15. Exiting from TestNav 8 After clicking the Next arrow following the last question the student will arrive at the End of Section screen, shown below Select the green “Submit” button A Section Exit Warning screen will pop up. Select “Yes” to confirm that you want to leave this unit/section. 15

17. Basic Technical Troubleshooting 17

18. Common Error Codes 1001: “Your test has been saved. Please notify your test administrator.” – Early Warning System initial message, does not indicate the issue, another error code will follow 1009: “Unable to download test content” – Network connection issue between the testing device and Pearson servers. 3005: “TestNav has detected that another application attempted to become the active window” – This could be caused by pop-ups in the background, power saving features, or key combinations like ctrl+alt+del 8026: “Unable to connect to the proctor caching computer. Please contact your administrator.” – Network connection issue between the testing device and the local Proctor Caching device 18

19. Common Error Codes - What to do? Resume the student in PearsonAccess next Have the student log in again on the same testing device If the same error occurs repeatedly, or if the same error is affecting multiple students, contact your Technology Coordinator Do not move the student to another testing device unless the student safely exits the test using the log out feature. 19

20. Common Errors 9059: “The username or password you entered is incorrect.” If the username/password being used is accurate, the student may be on the incorrect login page – “Colorado” 20

21. Technology Tip If students are testing on iPads or Chromebooks, note the specific device on which each student is testing. Each student should use the same device for all units/sections to aid in response data recovery if needed. 21

22.
