EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual PART 1: INTRODUCTION This manual provides an overview of the end-of-course (EOC) exam paper test administration. Use this document to familiarize yourself with what your students will experience in participating in the assessment, how to prepare for the assessment, and general rules for testing. Test Administrators (TAs) should become familiar with this document well in advance of the test administration date so materials for distribution to students are prepared and made available prior to the administration of the test and for familiarity regarding the directions to the student. In addition to this manual, guidance regarding accessibility resources—universal tools, designated supports, and accommodations—is provided in the Guidelines on Tools, Supports, & Accommodations available on the http://wa.portal.airast.org/. These guidelines define considerations for test administration in terms of universal tools, designated supports, and accommodations available during test administration.. ENSURING TEST SECURITY The security of the assessment materials and the confidentiality of student information are vital to maintaining the validity, reliability, and fairness of the results. All test items and test materials are secure and must be appropriately handled. Secure handling protects the integrity, validity, and confidentiality of assessment items, prompts, and student information. Any deviation in test administration must be reported as a test incident irregularity to ensure the validity of the assessment results. The state assessments must be administered by trained staff members of a school district (e.g., teachers, ESAs, EAs, substitute teachers) under the general supervision of a certificated employee. Student teachers and interns have a contractual relationship with the school district—even though they are not paid employees—and may assist in the administration of the assessments. Volunteers may not administer or assist in the administration of any state assessments. Volunteers are not permitted to assist with handling secure test material. Volunteers may assist in the supervision of students who need a break or have completed testing. All test content including, but not limited to, test booklets and accommodated forms are confidential and must not be reviewed except to the extent necessary for administration of state assessments. Refer to the Expected Actions section of this manual for detailed information on generally recognized standards and codes of conduct. ESTABLISHING APPROPRIATE TESTING CONDITIONS School Test Coordinators (SCs) and Test Administrators (TAs) will need to work together to determine the most appropriate testing option(s) and testing environment based on the number of students in each testing course and the estimated time needed to complete each test. Testing students in classroom-sized groups is preferable. Establishing classroom-sized groups reduces test fear and anxiety for the students and facilitates monitoring and control for the TA. The test administration should be conducted in a secure environment. Follow your school’s Test Security and Building Plan procedures to maintain a quiet testing environment throughout the test session, recognizing that some students will finish more quickly than others. If students are allowed to leave the testing room when they finish, explain the procedures for leaving without disrupting others and where they are expected to report once they leave. Prior to releasing students, TAs must collect and account for all testing materials provided to students. If students EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 5 EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual are expected to remain in the testing room until the end of the session, instruct them on what activities they may engage in after they finish the test. Follow your school’s Test Security and Building Plan for students who need additional time to complete the test, if moving to a new location. Table 1 on the following page describes security requirements for the test environment during various stages of testing. The test environment refers to all aspects of the testing situation while students are testing and includes what a student can see, hear, or access (including access via technology). Table 1: Requirements of the Test Environment Requirement Description BEFORE TESTING Instructional materials removed or covered Instructional materials must be removed or covered, including, but not limited to, information that might assist students in answering questions that is displayed on bulletin boards, chalkboards, or dry-erase boards, or on charts (e.g., wall charts that contain literary definitions, maps, mathematical formulas, etc.). Student seating Students must be seated so there is enough space between them to minimize opportunites to turn to each other’s work, or they should be provided with table-top partitions. Signage Place a “TESTING—DO NOT DISTURB” sign on the door or post signs in halls and entrances rerouting hallway traffic in order to promote optimum testing conditions. Page 6 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual Requirement Description DURING TESTING Quiet environment Student supervision Provide a quiet environment void of talking or other distractions that might interfere with a student’s ability to concentrate or might compromise the testing situation. Students are actively supervised and are prohibited from access to unauthorized electronic devices that allow availabilty to outside infomation, communication among students, or photographing or copying test content. This includes any device with cellular, messaging, or wireless capabilities, but is not limited to cell phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), iPods, cameras, and electronic translation devices. Access to allowable resources only Students must only have access to and use of those allowable resources identified in the Guidelines on Tools, Supports, & Accommodations that are permitted for a specific test (or portion of a test). Access to assessments Only students who are testing can view items. Students who are not being tested or unauthorized staff or other adults must not be in the room where a test is being administered. Trained Test Administrators (TAs) may have limited exposure to items in the course of properly administering the assessments; however, TAs and other trained staff may not actively review or analyze any items. No answer key development No form or type of answer key may be developed for test items. EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 7 EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual Requirement Description DURING AND AFTER TESTING No access to responses District Test Coordinators (DCs), School Test Coordinators (SCs), TAs, and other staff are not permitted to review student responses. No copies of test materials No copies of the test items or scenarios may be made or otherwise retained. No access to digital, electronic, or manual devices No digital, electronic, or manual device may be used to record or retain test items. Similarly, these materials must not be discussed with or released to anyone via any media, including fax, email, social media websites, etc. No retaining, discussing, or releasing test materials. Descriptions of test items or scenarios must not be retained, discussed, or released to anyone. No reviewing, discussing, or analyzing test materials DCs, SCs, TAs, and other staff may not review, discuss, or analyze test items or scenarios at any time, including before, during, or after testing. All test materials must remain secure at all times Test booklets, graph paper, scratch paper, and documents with student information must be kept in a securely locked area that can be opened only with a key or keycard by staff responsible for test administration as identified in your school's Test Security and Building Plan AFTER TESTING No test materials used for instruction Test items and scenarios must not be used for instruction. Destroy test materials securely Scratch paper and graph paper must be collected at the end of each test session and then securely destroyed to maintain test security. Follow your school's Test Security and Building Plan. Page 8 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual PART 2: GENERAL TEST ADMINISTRATION INFORMATION This section provides an overview of the paper-pencil testing environment and guidelines for test administration. Use this section to become familiar with what students will experience in taking the assessments, how to prepare for the assessments, and to review general rules for paper-pencil testing. Test Administrators (TAs) should become familiar with this section well in advance of the start of testing. STUDENT PARTICIPATION Consistent with the Washington Comprehensive Assessment Program plan, all students, including students with disabilities, English Language Learners (ELLs), and ELLs with disabilities, must have equal opportunity to participate in an EOC exam. Assessment accommodations are available for all students in special education, students with a 504 plan, and students eligible for English language services. Consistent with the Individualized Education Program (IEP), a student receiving special education services may participate in the state assessment system in the following ways: • Take the EOC with or without accommodations. • Take the EOC-Basic with or without accommodations. This option allows a student to “pass” the grade level assessment with Level 2 or “Basic” proficiency. Students with a 504 plan are disabled but do not meet the eligibility criteria to receive special education and related services because their disability can be reasonably accommodated without the need for specially designed instruction. Students with a 504 plan are not eligible to access the EOC-Basic. PREPARATION FOR THE ASSESSMENT It is desirable for students to be given a certain amount of practice so they will be familiar with the format of questions on state assessments. If the student cannot handle or does not understand the assessment format or other materials associated with the administration, it is likely that the results will not reflect the student’s true level of proficiency. Before administering the assessment, make sure that you have the following materials available for students: • • • • • • A test booklet for each student At least two sharpened No. 2 pencils for each student Calculator (see calculator guidelines in the Tools and Manipulatives section) Glossaries of Non-Mathematics or Non-Science Terms Tools (ruler, straightedge) For Mathematics EOCs only: Blank or lined scratch paper and graph paper for each student EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 9 EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual EOC exams are required for students who: • Are in grades 10-12 who have not yet met the mathematics assessment graduation requirement. • Are in classes of 2017 and beyond who have completed a biology course and have not yet met standard. Part 2: General Test Administration Information Students not required to participate in an EOC exam include: • Students who have previously passed an EOC exam or met the mathematics or science graduation requirement using a CAA Option. • • • For mathematics, students in the graduating class of 2019 or beyond. For biology, students in the graduating class of 2016 or earlier. Students with the most significant cognitive disabilities who meet the criteria for the state WA-AIM assessment (approximately one percent or fewer of the student population). ELLs who enrolled within the last 12 months prior to the beginning of testing in a U.S. school must participate in the mathematics and biology assessments. GENERAL RULES FOR THE PAPER-PENCIL ASSESSMENT This section provides a brief overview of the general test administration rules for different portions of the assessment. Test items are presented in separate sessions. Students may use calculators on all sessions. If taking an EOC over multiple days, students may only look at the test session being completed that day. Students may not return to a test session once it has been completed. The student test booklets are secure. Maintaining the security of all test materials is crucial to obtaining valid and reliable results. Therefore, test materials must be kept in a secure locked area, except during actual test administration. It is the responsibility of all individuals who administer the test to follow security procedures according to the approved Test Security and Building Plan and state policy. TOOLS AND MANIPULATIVES Use of a variety of tools and manipulatives by teachers during instruction can be beneficial for students to build a concrete understanding of mathematical content and procedures. However, some tools and manipulatives are not appropriate for use on state assessments. For mathematics, students are also expected to understand the meaning of symbolic notation, develop fluency, and apply concepts and procedures in problem solving situations. Many performance expectations require students to demonstrate understanding at the symbolic notation, fluency, and application levels. The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) does not endorse any specific products, tools, or manipulatives. Tools and manipulatives that are used during state assessments should be: • Regular tools or manipulatives that have been used in the classroom with the students. This should not be the first time the students see these materials. • Available where all students can access them if they elect to use them. Unless otherwise directed, tools and manipulatives should not be distributed to students. Tables 2 and 3 describe the allowed tools for the EOC exams. Any tools or manipulatives not Page 10 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual included in these tables should be considered not allowed. Table 2: Paper-Pencil Mathematics end-of-course (EOC) exit exams: may use a physical ruler or straightedge may not use a physical protractor or angle ruler Calculator allowed for all sessions maximum graphing calculator with similar functionalities to a TI-84 Braille and talking calculators only as an accommodation Abacus only as an accommodation usable any time scratch paper is allowed Highlighter may not use a physical highlighter Multiplication Table only as an accommodation Scratch Paper plain, yellow and lined, and/or graph paper allowed Glossary state issued glossaries allowed for all sessions Formula Sheet may not use on any sessions Pencil only number 2 Part 3: Administering the ELA Summative Assessments Grade 4 Ruler/Straightedge Table 3: Paper-Pencil Biology end-of-course (EOC) exit exams: Ruler/Straightedge may use a physical ruler or straightedge may not use a physical protractor or angle ruler Calculator Highlighter allowed for all sessions only a four-function calculator is necessary but any approved calculator is allowed Braille and talking calculators only as an accommodation may not use a physical highlighter Glossary state issued glossaries allowed for all sessions Pencil only number 2 The state issued Glossaries of Non-Mathematics and Non-Science Terms are available for students who may not be familiar with the non-mathematics or non-science vocabulary in the test questions. Glossaries will be provided with your shipment of EOC biology and mathematics materials. Directions will instruct students not to use Glossaries as scratch paper. Glossaries in individual student, and large print sizes are available on the WCAP-portal: http://wa.portal.airast. org/, under the TA User Card. EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 11 EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual ALLOWED CALCULATORS Students are allowed to use calculators on all sessions of the EOC exams. Calculators that are used during the EOC should be the regular calculators that have been used in the classroom. This should not be the first time the students use these calculators. Calculator Use and Restrictions Policy Prior to testing, TAs must become familiar with the allowed and prohibited calculator devices and features, see the Calculator Policy at http://wa.portal.airast.org/. Part 3: Administering the ELA Summative Assessments Grade 4 • Students should be told prior to the test day to store all data and software they wish to save on a computer or a calculator not being used for a test. Students should be thoroughly familiar with the operation of the calculator they plan to use on the assessment. This includes calculators provided by the classroom or school. • TAs are responsible for ensuring and verifying that calculators that have the ability to store functions and equations, e.g., a graphing or a scientific calculator, have the memory cleared before and after each assessment. • Calculators cannot have Internet connectivity, or be able to connect to anyone inside or outside the classroom during testing. • Students must not use calculator memories to take secure test content out of the room. Students who attempt to remove secure test content from the room by any method will have their test scores invalidated. • Calculators must operate in silent mode. Unapproved use of a calculator may create undue advantage for a student. Students who use unapproved calculators or use a calculator on an assessment for which a calculator is not allowed must have a Testing Irregularity Report completed and submitted by the DC to the State Test Coordinator. Students may only share calculators during the testing session when the following restrictions are applied: 1. Students are required to check out a calculator from a TA. 2. When each student has finished with the calculator, he/she will check it back in to the TA. The TA will immediately clear the calculator memory so it may be used by another student. Students may not share calculators while they are checked out from the TA. Note: A four-function calculator may be used but is not recommended and may not be sufficient for all assessment items. Calculator Memory Clearing Policy Students with memory-enabled calculators are not allowed to bring stored examples into the exam, access programs during testing, or take out the exam questions afterwards. For this reason, a memory-enabled calculator must either: have its memory cleared both before and after each testing session OR be used in Press-to-Test mode. Test Administrators must invoke Press-to-Test mode at the beginning of each test session and exit Press-to-Test mode at the end of each test session. Test Administrators are required to check calculators before the exam and disable any stored programs and applications on all calculators by either clearing the memory both before and after the exam or by invoking Press-to-Test mode. Please be advised that clearing the calculator memory will delete stored programs or applications; students should be told prior to the test • • Page 12 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual day to store all data and software they wish to save on a computer or a calculator not being used for the test. If a calculator can neither have its memory cleared nor be enabled in Press-to-Test mode prior to test administration, students are not permitted to use that calculator during the assessment. TESTING TIMES Table 4 contains the estimated times it will take most students to complete the paper-pencil test. This information is for scheduling purposes only, as the assessments are not timed. Table 4: Estimated Testing Times Course Three Sessions Single Session Breaks Biology Session 1: 20 minutes* 120 minutes* Session 2: 50 minutes* Session 3: 50 minutes* Not necessary for three sessions. One 10-minute break scheduled during single session. * Times reference student working time only and do not include time for distributing materials and reading directions. Additional time may be given in 10- to 20-minute intervals. During breaks, students will be cautioned not to discuss any test questions on the assessment. Generally, students should remain in the room during the break. However, they may be permitted to leave the room if supervised. During each testing session, students may need to take additional rest breaks. Additional breaks should be based on individual student’s needs and TA judgment. Students should not miss their scheduled lunch. Students may continue to work on assessments following a supervised lunch break. If a student is actively engaged in test taking and requires additional time, a school should make arrangements for that student to complete the exam on the same day of testing. Allowing a student additional time is based on the judgment of the TA and SC. It is up to the district and/or school to plan for students who need extended testing time. Extended testing time is available to all students who require it. When a student requires extended time testing he/she must be monitored by a trained TA. Students who have documented additional days for a testing session may have multiple days to complete one EOC content-area. However, a student must finish one content-area test or session before beginning the next content-area test or session. VERIFYING STUDENT INFORMATION TAs should verify student information both prior to and upon completion of an EOC exam. However, it is important for anyone with access to this information to remember that students’ EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 13 Part 3: Administering the ELA Summative Assessments Grade 4 Not necessary for three Session 1: 20 minutes* 120 minutes* sessions. One 10-minute Algebra 1/Integrated Session 2: 50 minutes* break scheduled during Mathematics I Session 3: 50 minutes* single session. Geometry/Integrated Mathematics II EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual personal information is confidential. If materials containing student names are distributed to students, these materials must be collected and accounted for before the students leave the testing room and must be either securely stored to be used in a subsequent test session, or securely shredded. Personal information includes any information that could potentially identify a student, including student name, state student identification number (SSID), birthdate, etc. PRE-ID LABELS AND BLANK STUDENT LABELS FOR TEST BOOKLETS Part 2: General Test Administration Information Included in the material shipment, you will receive a combination of Pre-ID student labels and blank adhesive labels to use with TIDE. Pre-ID student labels should be affixed to the student test booklet prior to the time of testing. Blank print-on-demand adhesive labels can be used in conjunction with TIDE to print individual student Pre-ID labels that were not provided in the original shipment. For information on how to print out an individual student Pre-ID label using TIDE, please refer to the TIDE User Guide which is posted on the WCAP-Portal. Important steps to follow: 1.Before testing, TAs ensure that students’ Pre-ID labels are affixed to the cover of the subject and course-level-appropriate test booklet in the box labeled “Place Student Barcode Label Here.” 2.If a Pre-ID label is not available, TIDE should be used to create a student’s Pre-ID label using the Pre-ID print-on-demand feature. This Pre-ID adhesive label should then be affixed to the cover of the subject and course-level-appropriate test booklet for each student in the box labeled “Place Student Barcode Label Here.” 3. Pre-ID labels must be used for each student’s test booklet. 4.Do not let a student use any test booklet that has another student’s Pre-ID label on it. Pre-ID Label Example Print on Demand 2015-2016 6RXWK 'DNRWD */$66 *(25*( ',676&+ 'HPR 6FKRRO 11 ,' *5' 2Q'HPDQG *(1'(5 0 INCOMPLETE OR DEFECTIVE TEST MATERIALS It is possible that a student might receive an incomplete or a defective test booklet. If a student discovers an incomplete or a defective test booklet while taking the test, he or she should be given a second test booklet that has been checked to verify that it is not defective. The student should continue with the new copy. All student responses must be transferred from the defective test booklet into the one to be scored. Follow your school’s Test Security and Building Page 14 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual Plan and the Guidelines for Tools, Supports, & Accommodations for transcription protocols. The word “Defective” should be written across the cover of the defective test booklet. Return the defective test booklet with other nonscorable materials, under the red non-scorable label. A new Student Pre-ID Label should be printed using TIDE and applied to the scorable test booklet. REPORTING A PERCEIVED ERROR ON A TEST If there appears to be an error on a state assessment, follow the steps listed below to ensure the security of the test content: EXPECTED ACTIONS This section describes best practices and responsibilities for all staff administering or assisting with the administration of the state assessment. Generally Recognized Standards and Code of Conduct WAC 181-87-060 (http://apps.leg.wa.gov/wac/default.aspx?cite=181-87-060)—Provides penalties for the unauthorized use or disclosure of test content and flagrant disregard of generally recognized professional standards in test preparation and administration.

RCW 42.56.250 (apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default. aspx?cite=42.56.250) – Provides provisions on the exemption of the following from public inspection and copying: test questions, scoring keys, and other examination data used to administer state assessments. No actions in any form or by any means may be taken that reproduce, record, reveal, or transmit secure test content. This includes electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording, wireless transmission (e.g., email, cell phones, pagers, iPods, tablets, other web-enabled devices, photo technology), or placement in any information storage and retrieval system. Professional Code of Conduct is codified by the Washington State Legislature in WACs and RCWs. A list of complete rules and regulations can be found at: www.k12.wa.us/ProfPractices/ CodeConduct.aspx. The Office of Professional Practices (OPP), a division under the auspices of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, is charged with enforcement, including discipline of educational EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 15 Part 2: General Test Administration Information 1. During the assessment, make note of the perceived error. (Include: subject, grade, test booklet form, test question number, and page number.) 2. Instruct students to do their best and complete that section of the assessment. Do not attempt to provide a remedy. If needed, the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) will provide a remedy for all students in the state. 3. Complete a Test Question Ambiguity Form: http://wa.portal.airast.org/. Deliver the completed form to your SC and/or DC, with your secure test materials. 4. The DC must alert OSPI. Do not copy the problem, share with colleagues, or transmit this information through any device with cellular, messaging, or wireless capabilities (e.g., email, cell phones, pagers, iPods, tablets, other web-enabled devices, photo-technology). EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual practitioners for violation of the Professional Code of Conduct. The office receives, investigates, and makes legal findings regarding complaints. Unprofessional conduct must be reported to the OPP at: (360) 725-6130. Although specific rules may vary slightly across state assessments, commonly accepted professional standards apply to all assessments. Public school employees are expected to know and comply with procedures, established by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), related to state assessments. These rules are disseminated annually by OSPI to DCs through assessment webinars, the Test Coordinators Manual, training PowerPoints, modules, and supplemental documentation. Under very limited circumstances, appropriate testing practices may require reading or reviewing secure test content. Part 2: General Test Administration Information The following are examples of prohibited and allowable behavior. These situations are limited and must align to OSPI policy. Prohibited Behaviors Specific examples of behaviors which are prohibited include, but are not limited to: • Not testing all eligible students or encouraging students to be absent from tests used for accountability or assessing language proficiency. • Reclassifying a student solely for the purpose of changing their demographic grouping, assigned or tested grade level, or the type of assessment that is required for that student. • Failing to follow directions specified in all Washington state administration manuals. • Failing to follow security procedures, as directed by OSPI, for all secure test materials. • Disclosing secure assessment material to TAs or students prior to the test session. • Reviewing, copying, transmitting, replicating, reading, or revealing any portion of secure test content, unless directed to do so by the OSPI State Test Coordinator. • Using for instruction any secure test content or modified test content that mirror secure test questions on state assessments. • Leaving students unattended during the administration of state assessments. • Using tools, supports, or accommodations that the student has not had the opportunity to use prior to the testing occasion. • Explaining or paraphrasing assessment directions or test questions (e.g., visual, tactile, or audible clues). • Making answers or answer keys available to students. • Changing or providing feedback causing students to reconsider or recheck their responses on state assessments. • Providing instruction between assessment sessions that is focused on the specific skills and content measured by state assessments. • Deliberately causing achievement results to be inaccurately reported or modifying student records for the purposes of raising test scores. • Misleading the public concerning the results and interpretations of score data. Page 16 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual Allowed Behaviors Specific examples include, but are not limited to: • Providing an accommodation as stipulated. For implementation and restrictions, refer to the Guidelines on Tools, Supports, & Accommodations for state assessments: http://wa.portal.airast.org/. Test Administrators and Persons Assisting with Tools, Supports, and Accommodations The following are codes of best practices and responsibilities that shall be followed by all staff administering or assisting with the administration of state assessments. Before Testing • • • • • • • • • • • During Testing • • • • Ensure at least one trained TA is in the testing room at all times. Ensure the accuracy of student information on test booklets prior to distributing pre-identified booklets to the appropriate students. Confirm calculators and electronic devices are appropriate (or allowed) and disallow the use of any calculator or electronic device that is not approved or that has prohibited features. See the Calculator Policy at http://wa.portal.airast.org/ Provide all required tools, supports, and accommodations. EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 17 Part 2: General Test Administration Information • • Attend all required training sessions and read all assigned training materials and instructions for each assessment proctored. Obtain your TIDE user name and password from your SC. Become proficient with your school’s Test Security and Building Plan to ensure that test materials will not be compromised before, during, or after the test administration. Obtain the approved testing schedule and seating arrangement from the SC. This should include a plan for students who need additional time (tests must be completed the same day in which they began, unless more than one day of testing is documented in a student’s IEP or 504 plan). Provide a positive test taking environment. Maintain confidentiality concerning secure assessment content at all times. This is especially important if you assist with an accommodation that requires the review of questions, reading of test content or scribing (e.g., questions, scenarios, and individual student results). Become familiar with materials available for student access. Refer to the Materials Available for Student Access table at http://wa.portal.airast.org Become familiar with accommodations and their restrictions. Inspect the testing location and remove or cover any aids or prompts that might potentially assist students with answering questions on a state assessment. Ensure that all students will have a comfortable and adequate workspace. Verify workspaces have been arranged according to the seating plan. Post a Testing—Do Not Disturb sign. Verify that you have all the necessary assessment materials. If additional materials are necessary, immediately notify your SC. EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual • • • • Part 2: General Test Administration Information • • • Administer state assessments, reading word-for-word, the specific Directions to the Student and supplemental materials provided by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction through your district. Directions must be read exactly as they are written, using a natural tone and manner. If you make a mistake in reading a direction, stop and say, “Listen again.” Then read the direction again. Never deviate from the directions as written. Deviating from the printed directions is a testing violation. Actively monitor students, once testing has begun, to ensure students are engaged with the assessment, working independently, and maintaining security of test content. Account for ancillary materials distributed during the testing session. Provide breaks as permitted in the Directions to the Student section. Additional breaks may be provided based on students’ needs and TA judgment. Document and report immediately any testing incidences, irregularities, or breaches in test security to your SC/DC. Report a perceived error on a test to your SC. Document and provide to your School Test Coordinator student invalidations, absences, and accommodations used. After Testing • • • • • Collect and account for student test materials (e.g., test booklets, accommodated forms, and ancillary material) prior to releasing students from the testing location. Immediately report any missing materials according to the school’s Test Security and Building Plan. Notation of missing materials must be included on the Test Security Assurance Form. Return all used and unused test booklets, accommodated forms and ancillary materials to the SC immediately after each testing session is completed. Ancillary materials provided during the testing session are considered secure. Return all Rosters to the SC. Complete a Test Security Assurance Form. The completed form must include an explanation of boxes checked “no” and notation of any missing materials.

Page 18 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Directions for Administration DIRECTIONS FOR ADMINISTRATION To assist students, use the following information and the TA student directions (SAY boxes). The Test Administrator (TA) verifies the security of the testing environment prior to beginning a test session. (See page 5, Ensuring Test Security) TAs must ensure that students do not have access to digital, electronic, or manual devices during testing. To ensure that all students are tested under the same conditions, the TA adheres strictly to the TA script (SAY boxes) for administering the test. The TA student directions can be found in the boxes in bold on the following pages. When asked, the TA should answer questions raised by students but should never help the class or individual students with specific test items. No test items can be read to any student for any content area, unless specified in the Guidelines on Tools, Supports, & Accommodations. If a student asks for help on a question try: • I can’t help you with your test • Always try your best. • Read the question again • Think about what the question is asking you to do • Use your pencil to underline key words in your test question Please remember that the script must be followed exactly and used each time a test is administered. All directions that a TA needs to read to students are indicated by the word “SAY” and are in boxes so they stand out from the regular text. They should be read exactly as they are written, using a natural tone and manner. If the TA makes a mistake in reading a direction, the TA should stop and say, “I made a mistake. Listen again.” Then the direction should be reread. The TA should try to maintain a natural classroom atmosphere during the test administration. Before each test begins, he or she should encourage students to do their best. The material to be read aloud to the students is printed in boldface and is preceded by the word “SAY.” All other information is for the Test Administrator and should not be read to the students.

Page 68 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual APPENDIX B: ITEM TYPES Item and Response Types As students engage with the end-of-course (EOC) exit exams, they are asked test questions that require them to respond in several ways, some of which may be new to students. Resources are available that teachers and students can use to get ready for the test, including paper-pencil supports and sample items. The paper-pencil supports for mathematics are available online at http://www.k12.wa.us/Mathematics/EndofCourse.aspx and should be completed prior to students taking an EOC exit exam. Science assessment resources are available online at http://www.k12.wa.us/Science/EducatorResources.aspx. Sample items are administered by TAs as part of the directions for Session 1 of each test; these sample items provide students an opportunity to view and practice select item types. The sample items should not be the first time students see or practice responding to EOC exit exam items. Summary of Item Types and How to Provide Responses Table 9 lists the different EOC item types and briefly describes each one. Not all assessments will necessarily include all item types. Table 9: Item and Scoring Types Type of Item Brief Description of Item Type Multiple-Choice (Math and Science) This item type provides a list of answer options for students to choose. Students select one option. Multiple-Select Response (Math only) This item type provides a list of answer options for students to choose. Students select one or more options. Gridded Response (Math only) This item type provides a grid that students enter numeric answers including negative values, decimals, and fractions. Students must fill in the bubbles to receive credit for their answer. Students may use the directions printed on page 2 of their EOC booklet to help them complete this item type. Note: Students should not enter mixed numbers for a gridded response item as this would result in a blank space in the grid. EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual Page 69 EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual Type of Item Brief Description of Item Type Matching Response (Math only) This item type provides statements, figures, or other stimuli for students to match with categories like “True,” “False, “Yes,” or “No.” Students fill in bubbles to select a category with each statement, figure, or other stimulus. Fill-in Table (Math only) This item type provides a table with some empty cells. Students fill in the empty cells with numbers and/or words to complete the table. Short Response (Math Only) This item type provides one or more answer boxes, grids, number lines, etc. for students to respond to the item. These items ask students to plot points on a number line, write an answer in an answer box, draw a figure, create a graph, provide a written response, or answer a question in another way. These items may contain elements of any item type described above, i.e., a Short Response item may ask students to complete a multiple-choice question and then fill in a table. Completion (Science only) This item type provides one small answer box. These items ask students to write a short response (one to two words or a number) to a clear and specific question. Short Answer (Science only) This item type provides a large, lined answer box. Shortanswer items ask students to provide a written response. When appropriate, prompts like “In your procedure, be sure to include:” or “In your description, be sure to:” will provide extra details to assist students in writing a complete response.

The School Test Coordinator (SC) should provide TAs with braille and large print test kits as appropriate. The following materials are included in the braille and large print test kits: Braille test kits •• a cover sheet; •• a copy of these instructions; •• a grade-appropriate version of the following: a regular test booklet, a plasticbound braille test booklet, and a packet of ancillary materials (transcriber’s notes) on the inside back cover of the braille booklets. Large Print test kits •• a cover sheet; •• a copy of these instructions; •• a grade-appropriate version of the following: a large print test booklet (if applicable) and a regular test booklet. STUDENT IDENTIFICATION Print the student’s name; county, district, and school code; and school name on the cover of the braille or Large Print test booklet. Responses in these test booklets will not be scored. All responses must be transcribed following protocols in the school’s Test Security and Building Plan and the Guidelines on Tools, Supports, & Accommodations. If responses are not transcribed into a regular test booklet they cannot be scored. Regular test booklets are enclosed in the braille or large print kit. Affix the Pre-ID label to the front of the regular test booklet and the large print test booklet (if applicable). Note that when large print test booklets are used responses must still be transcribed into a regular test booklet in order to be scored. INSTRUCTIONS The administration directions that appear in the Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual should be the basis for administering the braille and large print versions of the test. However, some modifications to these instructions are required. The TA, with the assistance of the Test Coordinator, should review these directions before administering a braille or large print test, and modify the instructions as needed considering specifications in the student’s IEP. The TA should use the regular test booklet to answer questions about the directions that are included in the test. However, the TA must not read or interpret any test questions for the student. The regular test booklet is not to be copied or used for any purpose other than to administer the test. The school security checklist must be used to record the distribution and collection of the braille, large print, and regular test booklets. Page 74 EOC 2016 Test Administration Manual EOC Paper-Pencil Test Administration Manual TIMING The TA must provide users of both the braille and large print versions of the test with sufficient time to complete the test. RECORDING ANSWERS Students with disabilities have the option to use accommodations for providing responses on this assessment. These accommodations allow students with disabilities to provide oral responses, taped responses, or written responses on paper beside the answer sheet provided with the assessment. These responses are then transcribed into the regular test booklet so that they can be scored. If responses are not transcribed into a regular test booklet they cannot be scored. The following guidelines must be followed to ensure accurate and fair transcription of student responses: •• All test materials and student responses are to be considered secure and confidential. •• Only persons who know braille should transcribe braille responses. •• Transcribers should be impartial and have no vested interest in student scores. •• Transcriptions of student responses must be identical to what the student provides, including grammar, punctuation, and spelling. If a student provides an incomplete response, the transcription must match that incomplete response exactly. •• Transcriptions should be proofread by a second impartial party to confirm accuracy. For cases where students have provided a graphic in a response, two transcribers should collaborate to transfer the response. •• When transcription is complete, student (oral, taped, or written) responses must be securely destroyed according to the school’s Test Security and Building Plan. Do not destroy the large print or braille booklets as those are secure and must be returned to the scoring contractor for receipt inventory. •• Do not dispose of student responses by placing them in the trash. The TA must provide written affirmation to the Test Coordinator that student responses have been completed on the student test booklet with fidelity. Under no circumstances should a student’s answer be altered or edited—to do so is a direct violation of test security. RETURNING TEST MATERIALS Keep the test booklet with transcription with the other scorable student test booklets. Return with scorable materials. Return all unused, not to be scored, braille, and large print test booklets with nonscorable materials.
