9. Preparing for Testing- Coordinator Manual Pg. 8
Test Administrators may review the manual to familiarize themselves with instructions in a supervised setting with the test coordinator. Test administrators should only review the grade level in which they will administer test. Test administrators should never review the grade level in which they teach.
Administer test in the predetermined order.
NOTE: The TerraNova and Supera books will have barcode labels. There is no need to hand code if the student barcode label information is correct.
Students that do not receive barcode labels will need to have their identifying information hand coded. (If a barcode label was not included for a student or if any information on the barcode label is incorrect, then you must complete the demographic information inside the front cover of the test book as described in Test Coordinator Manual)
If students are able to complete the student‐identifying information themselves, draw a model of the answer document’s front cover on the chalkboard to guide them in completing the form.
If students are not able to complete the student‐identifying information, complete all the student‐identifying information, including correct birth dates, on the answer documents prior to distributing them.

10. TerraNova and Supera Survey Student Book Labels
(Note to Test Coordinator: it is recommended to adhere labels at the end of testing or have teachers adhere at the end of testing day one to ensure the correct labels are used and books are not wasted on students who may WD or may not test)
As stated, TerraNova and Supera books have barcode labels specific to each student.
Each book will have a specific student label adhered to the cover.
If labels are placed on books prior to testing, Ensure students receive their own booklet. DO NOT randomly pass out books. Pay close attention to students with similar or same names to ensure student receives correct book.
Test administrators should have students check their name prior to beginning the test to ensure correct booklet was received.
If a student is given another student’s booklet and test, this is considered an irregularity and the test administrator will need to submit an irregularity statement to the campus TC.

Math part I and II MUST be completed in the same day.
Class/subtest start and stop times for both part I and II MUST be included on the seating chart.

16. After Testing
Wait there’s More

17. Answer Documents- Preparing to Submit to TC
Immediately after the testing session, the examiner collects the test documents from the students and checks the physical condition, including dark, clear marking. Then the documents are checked for accurate student‐identification information, and nonvalid tests are identified.
Step 1- Collect and Inspect book: pg. 10 Test Coordinator Manual
If you find this….
do this:
scratch paper tape of any kind Post-it™ Notes staples pins paper clips
Remove them.
light marks
incomplete erasures
stray marks
Erase inappropriate marks or make marks heavier as needed.
bent corners folds in document creases in document paper damaged by erasures ripped or torn sheets
Copy the filled-in circles onto a clean, unused document. Use a No. 2 pencil only. Use a soft eraser. Mark responses with solid, dark, filled-in circles.
Note: Please carefully count test documents to ensure that a document has been collected from each student who was tested.
Remove scratch paper from books, and give to CTC to destroy.
Ensure no markings are on bar codes (both top horizontal and side bar codes of book. Please note bar codes are on the front and back of each book.
Make sure books are flat and have not been bent.
Separate Absentees and put those with completed absentee form.
***Note to test coordinator: Do not include these students with scorables to turn in unless you complete a makeup within the assessment window.

18. Answer Documents- Preparing to Submit to TC
Immediately after the testing session, the examiner collects the test documents from the students and checks the physical condition, including dark, clear marking. Then the documents are checked for accurate student‐identification information, and nonvalid tests are identified.
Step 2- Complete a Group Information Sheet (GIS). Group Information Sheets are scannable headers submitted with each tested group to account for total tests being submitted for that group: page 9/22-23 of Test Coordinator Manual
*Complete section 1 and 3, all other areas are pre-coded
*Complete an additional GIS for students who test off level
Mark actual grade level even if testing off level
Alphabetize scorable books and return to test coordinator, with your Group Information Sheet on the top.
If dual kids, Supera Survey books and GIS will be alpha and in one stack; Terra Nova books and GIS will be alpha and in a separate stack. This will be reviewed for accuracy when your CTC quality controls your test material.
*The number testing should match the total student books being submitted for scoring. For example 027 would mean 27 total student books were being submitted for scoring. Be sure to write and bubble number
