  2. 2013—2014 Algebra 1 End-of-Course (EOC) Assessment Fact Sheet

  3. Test Administration Information • The Algebra 1 EOC Assessment is delivered via a computer-based test (CBT) platform. • The assessment will be given in one 160-minute session with a 10-minute break after the first 80 minutes. Students will not be allowed to talk during the break. As with FCAT 2.0 paper-based administrations, individual breaks may be allowed as needed. Students may not be dismissed during the first 80 minutes; however, after the 10-minute break, they may be dismissed as they complete the test. • Although the assessment is scheduled for a 160-minute session, any student not finished by the end of the 160 minutes may continue working. Testing must be completed within the same school day. • During each administration, there are multiple forms of the assessment. There is a maximum of 65 items on each test form. • Each form of the assessment will include 35-40 multiple-choice and 20-25 fill-in response items. Approximately six to ten of these items are experimental (field test) items and are NOT included in student scores.

  4. • A four-function calculator is provided in the TestNav platform. Students will also be provided with a hand-held calculator. They may not bring their own to the testing site. • A reference sheet containing commonly used formulas and conversions is provided in the TestNav platform. Schools may make copies of the reference sheet provided in the 2013-14 End-of-Course Assessments Test Administration Manual and distribute the copies to students if they prefer to use a hard copy. • Students will be provided four-page, hard-copy work folders to use as scratch paper. Used folders are secure materials that must be collected after testing and stored or securely destroyed according to district assessment coordinators’ instructions.
