Now we will discuss the tasks that are associated with Administering Tests. These tasks include creating and managing administrative procedures, monitoring student test progress, and printing test tickets.

44 Printing Test Tickets from a Student List
Test Tickets can be provided to students at the beginning of a test session to ensure they have the correct first name and unique student ID to use AIRWays. Test tickets can be generated from the view/edit students or rosters or from this function under administering tests. Printing test tickets from a student list is useful if you want to print test tickets for specific students. Printing test tickets from a roster list is useful if you want to print test tickets for a specific group of students. To print test tickets from a student list, select the Print from Student List from the Print Test Tickets task menu. Complete the fields under the Search Students panel. The fields marked with an asterisk are mandatory. To further refine your search results, select additional search fields in the Advanced Search panel. Click Search to view your results.

49 How to Generate a PMT Report
Plan and Manage Testing (PMT) reports detail all of a student’s test opportunities and the status of each test opportunity. From this page, you can view all students who have completed one or more tests, students who have started one or more tests, students who have not started one or more tests which allows users to monitor overall testing progress. Because the report lists testing opportunities, a student can appear more than once on the report. To generate a report from the Plan and Manage Testing page, select a test instrument and administration under the Choose What panel. Next, in the Search Students panel, select a district, school, and teacher if applicable. The fields marked with an asterisk are mandatory. You can refine your search by adding additional criteria under the Advanced Search section. Finally, in the Get Specific panel, choose one of the filter options available and select parameters for that option. Click Generate Report to view your Plan and Manage Testing report, or click Export Report to open the report in Excel.

50 Plan and Manage Testing Examples
Which students have not yet tested? Which students need to test in the next five days? Which students have paused tests? Did all students in a test session submit their tests? This slide illustrates some common questions that can be answered using the options available in the Get Specific panel. To find students who have not yet tested, select the first radio button and search for students who have completed their test opportunity in the selected administration. To find students whose test opportunities are expiring, select the second radio button and specify the number of days or range of days you want to search. To find students who have paused tests, select the third radio button and search for students on their test opportunity in the selected administration with a status of paused. To find out if all students in a test session submitted their tests, select the fourth radio button and search for students by test session ID between the dates when the test session took place.

51 How to View PMT Results Reports can be exported to an excel file by clicking on the Export Report button. Note: this is the fastest way to generate results. Clicking Generate Report will display the report and collapse the other panel. Because not all columns can fit on the screen at once, you may need to click the blue arrow on the right side of the screen to scroll right and display more information. You can also choose which columns you want display by clicking the dropdown menu in the top right corner above the report.

52 How to View Test Completion Rates
The Test Completion Rates report summarizes the number and percentage of students who have started or completed a test. To download a report from the Test Completion Rates page, choose the type of report you wish to export from the Report drop-down list.

To download the report as an Excel spreadsheet, click Export Report.

53 How to Search Student Participation

54 How to Create a Procedure
If an event impacts a test opportunity, you may need to intervene with an administrative procedure. For example, a test may need to be re-opened if the student submitted the test too soon. Common administrative procedures include actions such as invalidating, reopening, and re-opening a test segment. To create a procedure request, go to the Create Procedure page under the Administrative Procedures menu. Under the Select Request Type and Search panel, select the request type and an option from the Search Student By field. In the search results, mark the checkbox for each opportunity to include in the request and click Create. In the available fields, provide a reason for making the request and click Submit.

55 How to View/Export Procedures
The View/Export Procedures page allows you to view, export, or process administrative procedure requests. First, under the Appeal Information panel, choose a request type. Next choose a request status. Finally enter any additional criteria you want to include in the search. Click Search to display your results. Select the result(s) you wish to view or export by clicking the checkmark boxes on the left side of the result. Next, choose an option from the Process drop-down menu. Enter a reason for the request in the pop-up that appears and click Submit.

56 How to Approve Procedures
Administrative Procedure requests must be approved by district personnel. To approve a procedure request, select the Approve Procedures page from the Administrative Procedures menu. Under the Appeal Information, select the search criteria you wish to review, and click Search. In the search results, mark the checkbox for each request you want to approve, and select the appropriate option from the Process drop-down menu. In the window that appears, enter a reason for the selected action, and click Submit.

57 How to Upload Procedures
A second way to add procedures into Student and User Management is to use the Upload Procedures page. If the test session is interrupted by an unexpected event, such as a fire alarm sounding, you might need to provide extensions to all students in the session so they can review all items in the interrupted session. This task is performed by following the same steps used to upload new users and students: download a template file, enter information into the template, save, and click the Browse button to locate the file and upload it in to Student User and Management. For more information on managing Administrative Procedures, see the AIRWays User Guide.
