The practice tests were developed so that students can experience PARCC test items as they appear on the tests. Teachers, students, parents, and others can engage with the sample items using computer-based tools such as drag-and-drop, multiple select, text highlighting, and an equation builder.
PARCC has released online tutorials to help students prepare for and become familiar with the test format and features, including features that make the test more accessible for all students, including those with disabilities and English learners.
