General Testing Information
How does a student log in to take a test when s/he is using an open browser?
If a student is not taking a test on the downloaded, secure browser, he or she can use any modern browser to take the test. The student can use this link http://clearsight.tds.cambiumast.com/student to access the test log in. Please note that the student will need to have his or her official first name, Student id (or SSID), and the Session id ready to enter at the log in page. Information on Test Administration can be found in the UserManual Test Administration System, QuickGuide Deciding How to Administer a Test, and the Training Test Administration.
For how long may a student pause a test form?
How should educators use Practice Tests?
Practice Tests are not intended as an assessment of standards knowledge. They are also not indicative of difficulty levels or test lengths. In fact, the items may not be on grade level. Practice Tests are purely for the purpose of allowing students and teachers to become comfortable with using the ClearSight system. The Practice Tests are meant to provide access to the test experience, available tools, variety of item types (multiple choice, drag and drop, equation entry, etc…) and functionality of the ClearSight system. Students should be encouraged to engage fully with the items but should not feel that it is a requirement to answer the questions correctly.
