  • Slide 46
  • Before Testing All test administrators must receive Administration Code training. This training applies to all state-administered tests: K-PREP, EXPLORE, PLAN, ACT, COMPASS, EOCs and KOSSA, Industry Certification. Train staff on particulars of the test (TAM), testing schedule, etc. Should sign practice/proctor form. Staff designated to provide accommodations must also have the Inclusion of Special Populations training.
  • Slide 47
  • Receiving Materials Regular and accommodated test materials will arrive in the district by April 1, 15 or 29. Test materials arrive in the district packaged by school. The pre-printed student response booklets will be sorted by grade in ascending alphabetical order. Test materials will include an overage: School will receive 5% (per grade) District will receive 3%
  • Slide 48
  • Accommodated Materials Braille Large-Print Audio CD Districts will use Form 1 for both visually and hearing impaired students. A blank Student Response Booklet is no longer included in each kit. Students should use the pre-printed SRB that comes with the test materials.
  • Slide 49
  • Inventory Materials Inventory materials as soon as possible upon receipt. Keep original boxes. Original boxes will be used to return test materials. Request additional materials if needed. Call DAC Check district and school overage before placing an additional order. To receive by the next day, I must order by 1:30max 1 order per school per grade per day. Do not trade between schoolsidentified by barcode.
  • Slide 50
  • DAC Materials Distribution Distribution of materials WILL allow time for BACs to inventory and prepare for teacher distribution. Test booklets housed in the BACs designated area can be double locked. Test booklets housed in classrooms must be locked.
  • Slide 51
  • BAC Materials Distribution Shrink-wrapped packs can be split between classrooms, but the order of the test books should not be changed. Test booklets should not be distributed to proctors until the first day of testing. Ensure that each teacher receives adequate numbers of test books and the appropriate pre-printed Student Response Booklets (SRBs). Remind teachers: to follow TAM directions about names on test books to ensure that each student receives his/her own test book and SRB for each testing session Use real time materials check out procedures on proper forms.

  • Slide 58
  • Seating Charts Seating charts are required for both individual and group testing. Room location must be recorded on the student response booklet. A single chart can be used for multiple sessions; if seating arrangement and room location do not change, mark the date for each session.

  • Who Takes the K-PREP? Required to Test Students in grades 3-8 and 10-11, including those with disabilities Students who are retained Students who move during testing Students with a minor medical emergency EL students in their first year are required to attempt mathematics and science (four multiple-choice or one extended response). EL students in their second year and later participate in all content areas. Not Required to Test Students in the Alternate K-PREP Students skipped grade Foreign Exchange students Students with medical or extraordinary circumstances exemptions 60
  • Slide 61

  • Slide 62
  • K-PREP Scheduling Testing is to be 5 consecutive days during the last 14 instructional days of the district calendar. The 5 days are to be done by school level (elementary, middle, high), not by separate grade levels. Any day a regular test session is scheduled is considered one of the 5 testing days even if only one session is done on that day. 62
  • Slide 63
  • K-PREP Scheduling Additional time has been incorporated directly into the time allowed for testing. All students in a grade/school must take each part of the test at the same time. Each part is to be given as a separate session with a break in between. Allow for breaks when developing schedule. Breaks may be short (i.e., stand and stretch) or long (i.e. lunch) with appropriate monitoring. 63
  • Slide 64
  • K-PREP Scheduling Students in accommodated testing situations must be able to test in a quiet situation. Extended time is allowed only for students with IEPs, 504s, or PSPs specifying extended time. Make arrangements for the extended time in a manner that allows other students to go back to instructional activities. At the end of the day, students with regular and extended time need to have finished the same parts of the test.
  • Slide 65
  • Sample 2013 K-PREP Elementary (3-5) Testing Schedule Make-ups can be scheduled any time during the 5 day window for students who miss a test session.

For parts that allow calculators, you may use any four-function, scientific, or graphing calculator, unless it has features described in the Prohibited Calculators list bellow. For models on the Calculators Permitted with Modification list, you will be required to modify some of the calculator's features. Prohibited Calculators The following types of calculators are prohibited: Calculators with built-in computer algebra systems Prohibited calculators in this category include: Texas Instruments: All model numbers that begin with TI-89 or TI-92 and the TI-Nspire CASNote: The TI-Nspire (non-CAS) is permitted. Hewlett-Packard: HP 48GII and all model numbers that begin with HP 40G, HP 49G, or HP 50G Casio: Algebra fx 2.0, ClassPad 300 and ClassPad 330, and all model numbers that begin with CFX-9970G Handheld, tablet, or laptop computers, including PDAs Electronic writing pads or pen-input devicesNote: The Sharp EL 9600 is permitted. Calculators built into cell phones or any other electronic communication devices Calculators with a typewriter keypad (letter keys in QWERTY format)Note: Letter keys not in QWERTY format are permitted. Calculators Permitted with Modification The following types of calculators are permitted, but only after they are modified as follows Calculators with paper tapeRemove the tape. Calculators that make noiseTurn off the sound. Calculators with an infrared data portCompletely cover the infrared data port with heavy opaque material such as duct tape or electrician's tape (includes Hewlett-Packard HP 38G series, HP 39G series, and HP 48G). Calculators that have power cordsRemove all power/electrical cords. Programs Programs, such as ZoomMath are not considered to be a computer algebra system (CAS) and may be used but only if the program or application is loaded onto a permitted calculator. Programs that are computer algebraic systems are prohibited.
  • Slide 81
  • Non-Standard Response Printed word-processed answer must fit in the answer box. Trim around and tape response to appropriate area in the SRB. Tape at least the 4 corners using clear desk tape. Do not cover other answers, bar codes, or timing tracks with tape. The non-standard response template is on your flashdrive!
  • Slide 82
  • This is where the typed test will go. It will be trimmed around so that it fits completely inside the black box allowed for each test question. The template allows only enough space to complete the question while remaining inside the allowable space. The template can be downloaded from the KDE webpage. Tape must be on the corners of the text being inserted but not covering multiple choice answers, barcodes or timing tracks. Place clear desk tape at least on the four corners of the printed response so the pages are securely in place and will not move around when the booklet is moved, opened, closed, packaged or during shipping. This will ensure proper scoring will occur. 82
