7. Measured Progress ©2014 7 Two main components of the online testing system:  Test Administration System (OCCRA Portal)  Student Test Delivery System (iTester 3™ Client) OCCRA Online System

8. Measured Progress ©2014 8 OCCRA Portal Overview

9. Measured Progress ©2014 9  Accessible via your web browser at https://oklahoma.measuredprogress.org https://oklahoma.measuredprogress.org  Used by state, district, and school personnel to access the test administration component  Available March 10 – May 21, 24 hours a day OCCRA Portal Overview

10. Measured Progress ©2014 10 User accounts that were created during the stress test will be reactivated on March 10th  Additional user accounts can be added via the Portal OCCRA Portal Overview

11. Measured Progress ©2014 11 Create a new user OCCRA Portal Overview

12. Measured Progress ©2014 12 Create a new user (continued) OCCRA Portal Overview

13. Measured Progress ©2014 13 IT Coordinator log in OCCRA Portal Overview

14. Measured Progress ©2014 14 Student information will be uploaded  Live student data will be uploaded and available for data verification  Students will be manually assigned to classes so they can be scheduled for a test session  Users can add students manually to the Portal if needed OCCRA Portal Overview

15. Measured Progress ©2014 15 Print Student Logins on paper or Avery™ labels OCCRA Portal Overview Be sure to check the boxes of the students you wish to print

16. Measured Progress ©2014 16 OCCRA Client Overview

17. Measured Progress ©2014 17 Web-based application installed on each workstation or the network that can be launched from the desktop icon  Needs internet to communicate with the testing server using web technologies via HTTP and HTTPS  Internet connectivity is required to download test content and submit responses for scoring  If there is no internet available when the students’ answers are submitted, the Client will store those answers (encrypted) until it is re-launched after internet connectivity is restored  Further instructions can be found in the help guides OCCRA Client Overview

18. Measured Progress ©2014 18 Periodic Data Syncs (Heartbeats)  Triggered to periodically save and protect student responses  Internet interruption during testing:  Encrypted responses saved in the location indicated during installation  Responses sent to server once internet is available  Internet interruption at the end of testing:  Student will receive a warning screen to alert their proctor the responses cannot be sent  Proctor must re-launch the Client once internet connectivity is restored to send responses OCCRA Client Failsafe Mechanism

19. Measured Progress ©2014 19 Content  Encrypted test content using RSA  Remains encrypted during transmission from web server to Client on student workstation  Downloaded and decrypted upon student login  Decrypted content is stored in memory and expires immediately after Client is exited Student Data  Uses industry standard 128-bit SSL encryption Device Security  Kiosk-mode restricts students from accessing other programs/applications during testing  iPad ® Guided Access restricts students from accessing other programs/applications during testing Test Security

20. Measured Progress ©2014 20 *Important note for Windows 8 or above: The Client is only available as a “traditional desktop app” for Windows 8 and 8.1 for use with a mouse and keyboard setup on a non-touch enabled device. Using a touch-enabled device running Windows 8 or 8.1 is NOT supported and prohibited for security reasons. **Contact SDE if you wish to use an Android device.
