Computer Based Testing: Tools and Resources for Preparing your Class

This after-school learning will be a short 45 minute session to support teachers in preparing their students for Computer-Based Testing. We will discuss basic requirements of the state-mandate, but focus mostly on student preparation. We will review specific tools and resources (both free and paid-for) that teachers can use immediately to familiarize students with the platform and prepare their skills. Ultimately the future of assessments for students will be online, thus the more we can prepare now the better!

Tuesday March 21, from 3:15 to 4:00
