4. Training All test administrators must receive Administration Code training (703 KAR 5:080-Sept. 2009). This training applies to all state-administered tests. Staff designated to provide accommodations must also have the Inclusion of Special Populations training (703 KAR 5:070-Feb. 2009).
5. Receiving Materials Regular and accommodated test materials will arrive in the district by March 31, April 14 or 28. 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% District will receive 3%
6. Accommodated Materials Braille Large-Print Audio CD Text Reader—new for 2014 (available in both Mac and PC formats)
7. 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. Check district and school overage before placing an additional order. Note: Do not exchange test materials between schools in or out of the district in lieu of ordering additional materials.
8. Test Book Security Barcode Each test booklet has a unique security barcode, located in the upper right corner of the back cover of the test booklet. Using this barcode, test booklets are assigned to specific districts/schools. This provides an accurate means of tracking secure test booklets that are shipped to and returned from the school. K-PREP Test Booklet Back Cover For all questions regarding test booklet security see the DAC/BAC Manual.
9. Requesting Additional Materials PearsonAccess Online orders must be submitted and approved prior to 1:30 p.m. ET to be included in that day’s shipment. Requests for additional test materials can be made through June 4. Only one order per school, per grade can be processed in a single day. Request additional return shipping materials for a school through June 11.
10. PearsonAccess PearsonAccess is used to: View student enrollment counts for K-PREP Note: No edits can be made to the counts. If a discrepancy of 15-20% or more is found, contact KDE at kdeassessment@education.ky.gov. Choose shipping options Order additional testing and shipping materials Order accommodated materials Update district/school profiles (shipping addresses, etc.)
11. DAC Materials Distribution Distribution of materials should allow time for BACs to inventory and prepare for teacher distribution. Test booklets housed in the BAC’s designated area can be double locked. Test booklets housed in classrooms must be double locked.
12. BAC Materials Distribution Shrink-wrapped packs can be split between classrooms, but the order of the test booklets should not be changed. Test booklets should not be distributed to test administrators until the first day of testing. Ensure that each teacher receives adequate numbers of test booklets and the appropriate pre-printed Student Response Booklets (SRBs).
13. Reminders for Teachers Teachers should be strongly encouraged to follow TAM directions about entering the student’s name on test booklets. Teachers should verify that each student receives his/her own test booklet and SRB for each testing session.
14. Test Book Replacement Assign a new book of the same form as the original. The original test book should not be returned if damaged with bodily fluids. Contact Pearson to give student name, school grade, test security barcode (back), and form number. Then destroy according to local OSHA requirements.
15. Student Response Booklet Correct pre-printed SRB Use SRB as is. Incorrect pre-printed SRB Void the SRB. Assign a new SRB with demographic information completed on front cover. Enter correct information into IC. No pre-printed SRB Follow gridding instruction in the script portion of the TAM.
16. Pre-Printed Demographics K-PREP Pre-Printed Demographics Pre-Printed Demographic Information This is how the demographic information will look on the pre-printed Student ResponseBooklet. SSID Date of Birth Gender District/School Code
17. Student Response Booklet Do not assign a pre-printed SRB to another student. Do not use mechanical or liquid pencils. (Only regular #2 pencils are to be used.) Do not use highlighters. Do not use staples or glue.
18. SRB Replacement Grid all information including name, room number, form number, etc. Transcribe answers into new SRB. The new serial number (front of SRB) may be annotated into SDRR, but not mandatory. Securely destroy original SRB. SRBs soiled by bodily fluids should not be returned. Destroy the SRBs according to OSHA requirements.
19. Student Response Booklet Mark the appropriate accommodation type New
20. Room Number Bubble on the SRB indicating the room where each student takes the test. Zerosneed to be entered for any blank space for a room number. If the room number is 9, the student will enter 0009. If a classroom does not have a number assigned the school will need to assign one. Letters can not be entered for a room number. 9= 0009 19= 0019 190= 0190
21. Do not remove from SRB.
22. Seating Charts Seating charts are required for both individual and group testing. The 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. Templates are available in TAMs and on the KDE website. A customized form may be created to reflect the room arrangement.
