Required Testing Environment Test Administrators Required Testing Environment Trained test administrator Quiet environment void of distractions Only allowable resources made available to students upon request Limited interaction with students Read student directions Administer accommodations appropriately No coaching 4/9/2019 Free Template from www.brainybetty.com

Free Template from www.brainybetty.com Test Administrators Dos and Don’ts Dos TAs must read the 2009-10 Test Administration Manual, receive annual test administration and security training, and sign an Assurance of Test Security form before administering state tests. TAs may only provide upon request students with allowable resources listed by content area in the 2009-10 Test Administration Manual. TAs may only provide the version of allowable resources provided by ODE. These are posted online at http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?=2346 TAs must read verbatim the student directions provided by content area in the 2009-10 Test Administration Manual. TAs must sign the Test Security form in order to administer tests. 4/9/2019 Free Template from www.brainybetty.com

Free Template from www.brainybetty.com Test Administrators Dos and Don’ts (cont) Don’ts TAs may not allow untrained aides, volunteers, or substitutes to assist with test administration. TAs may not coach students (including requiring students to show their work). Students may not access non-allowable resources such as textbooks or class notes Students must not talk to or help other students during testing. 4/9/2019 Free Template from www.brainybetty.com

Free Template from www.brainybetty.com Test Administrators Promising Practices TA reviews the Test Administration Manual before testing, focusing on test security and content-specific allowable resources and accommodations. TA spaces students appropriately or provides visual barriers to prevent students from seeing others’ tests. TA reads student directions verbatim and circulates through test environment to ensure proper testing conditions. TA makes available but does not require students to use allowable resources. 4/9/2019 Free Template from www.brainybetty.com

Free Template from www.brainybetty.com Test Administrators In a Nutshell TAs must receive training each year TAs enforce valid test environment for students When in doubt about a particular testing practice: Check the Manual Check your training notes Ask your School Test Coordinator If all else fails, assume the answer is “no” 4/9/2019 Free Template from www.brainybetty.com
