Inform students that they will be taking the PRoPL assessments by explaining that these assessments are an opportunity for students to show what they know and can do at several checkpoints throughout the year. Encourage students to try their best and prepare by getting a good night’s rest and eating a healthy breakfast on the day of testing.
The PRoPL practice tests will provide an opportunity for students to become familiar with the types of questions on the assessments and the features and tools available to them.
Proctors should become familiar with all administration procedures before testing.
Preparing for Administration
Prepare the testing room by ensuring the following:
Headphones are available for all students in grades K-2 and any students planning to use text-to-speech in grades 3-8.
Student workstations are ready for testing; including ensuring computers or laptops are fully charged and the secure browser extension has been installed.
Computer monitors are positioned to prevent students from seeing each other’s work.
The room has adequate lighting.
Small groups are created by the classroom teacher for each class prior to test administration.
During Testing
All appropriate school staff are responsible for knowing and applying the following general testing protocols:
There must always be at least one Proctor in each testing room.
Proctors must remain attentive in the room during the entire testing session.
The use of cellphones or any electronic devices during the testing session is strictly prohibited.
Proctors should remind students to complete all test questions and to check to be sure they have completed and submitted the assessment.
Testing Disruptions
Proctors must allow time for students to complete a PRoPL assessment and should monitor classes closely to minimize any disruptions. Students should be allowed to leave the testing room to use the restroom as needed during the administration of the assessment. The proctor must pause the student’s test while the student is out of the room. The proctor can resume student testing should the student need to stop and continue at another time within the testing window. Directions for how to perform these actions may be found under Proctor Monitoring.
Proctors may not help students in any way, except during the general instructions or as specified in this manual. Proctors may assist a student if a technology issue occurs. Under no circumstances are students to be prompted to revise, edit, or complete any test questions during or after testing.
