  1. California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) Configuring Online StudentTest Settings in TOMS October 28, 2015 1–2 p.m. Presented by Kristen Moore, ETS

  2. Purpose • The purpose of this Webcast is to go over how to set embedded and non-embedded designated supports and accommodations for students in the Test Operations Management System (TOMS).

  3. Agenda • Overview • One by One Process in the User Interface • File Upload Process • Using the Online Student Test Settings template • Using the 2015–16 CAASPP Individual Student Assessment Accessibility Profile (ISAAP) Tool • Live Demonstration • Questions

  4. Overview

  5. Overview • Entering student test settings in TOMS ensures students receive the assigned accessibility supports for the online Smarter Balanced assessments. • CAASPP Coordinator and Test Site Coordinator are the ONLY roles with access to configure online student test settings in TOMS.

  6. Overview

  7. Overview • Embedded and non-embedded accommodations are available only to students that have a Section 504 plan or an “IDEA” indicator with a valid primary disability type in the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS). • All embedded and non-embedded designated supports and accommodations may be assigned and activated through TOMS, except Turning off a universal tool, which must be activated through the test administrator interface.

  8. Overview *Must be activated in the test delivery system. **Print on demand for cannot be activated in TOMS. If a student(s) need print on demand for items and/or items and stimuli, contact the CalTAC.

  9. Overview • There are three options to set designated supports and accommodations in TOMS: • One-by-one manual configuration in the user interface • File upload using the Online Student Test Settings template • File upload using the 2015–16 CAASPP ISAAP Tool to create an upload file
