44. Lessons Learned
• The test result the student sees will be based off the
answer key that exists when the Test Key (code) is
entered. A student needs to retype the Test Key to see
their updated score if there is an answer key change.
• When the test window is open students will only see
their score and what they chose on each question. They
will not see the correct answer and which questions they
got wrong unless the testing window closes.
45. Lessons Learned
• Make sure tests have been submitted during class time.
• Browser lockdown does not occur.
• If the computer powers down or has an error students
can retype in their test key and pick up where they left
off.
• Although you can give AB as a choice in multiple choice
tests and students can see AB as a choice, if they choose
AB as an answer it will not stay when they move on to
the next question. Only a single letter answer is
recognized.
64. Lessons learned and unresolved issues
• Issues with sharing items districtwide. Districts can actually
be countywide.
• Only way of sharing individual items is to have a district
approval process in place. Content area specialists?
Committee?
• Copyright laws and the republication without permission
would be difficult to police. Need to get publisher
permission.
• Test integrity-Especially using questions shared with an
entire county.
• Alternative-create an exam that is used only as an itembank.
The exam is a dummy exam and will contain all questions for
that chapter from my items. Share the exam with whomever
you want access to your items.
