Learn about the new internationalization feature for the TDS user interface and join the informational webinars to preview upcoming changes and important dates for ELPA summative testing.
E N D
#1: TDS Internationalization • Currently our summative test user interface presents exclusively in English (pause buttons, error messages, labeling of tools such as Notepad, tooltips). • We could activate the option to present this UI in Spanish.
Two Implementation Schemes Default • TDS UI is linked to language of test. • No “mix and match.” Alternative • TA may select English or Spanish UI regardless of test language. The language of the TDS user interfacecannot be changed once the test begins, even if content language of the test changes (as in the Science Spanish toggle).
