This problem may have to do with your type of internet
connection. Dial-up connections are not very reliable and slow, so
you may need to find a computer with DSL, broadband, or high speed
connection. Another reason for getting kicked-off may have to do
with your computers security settings. Some internet providers
provide you with security and firewalls. You may have to disable
these in order to get connected or stay connected. You can contact
your internet provider for help on how to do this. Caution: Be sure
to reset your security and firewall settings after testing.
Yes! The test records every question and will pick back up where
you left off. Be sure to pick that test again. NOTE: Please
do not pick any tests you have completed or the program will have
you do that test again.
If the testing program says you need to change screen resolution,
then you will need to close down the internet and go back to your
desktop screen. Over an empty area of you desktop, right click your
mouse. When the box comes up look for a properties button or
personal appearance setting. You are looking for a settings button
that will allow you to change the screen resolution. We recommend
setting it to 1024 x 768. Remember to go back after testing and set
the screen resolution back the way you want it.
If you keep choosing tests in the test selection window that you
have already completed, the system will keep bringing that test back
up for you to do again. The testing program is not designed to
determine, if you have taken a test already. Be sure to only select
tests in the test selection window that you have not completed.
These tests are assessing student's knowledge levels. The first
question will be at that student's grade level. The next question
will get harder or easier according to whether they got the question
right or wrong. The tests adapt to that student's abilities. If they
are getting hard questions they can not answer, that is normal. The
test is trying to determine their knowledge level. The testing
program does not expect your student to get every question
correctly. These are not a pass or fail tests.
Our testing window does not close down until June 1st. When
all testing is complete, then test results will be printed out and
sent to you.
