Testing Step-by-step: End of Test

 

Choices: In general -or- Single student -or- Whole group -or- Discard test

In general: 

Before you can begin another testing session, you must end the first session:

• Click End Testing Session.
• Before students leave, ask them to close down (click the X at top).
Test session—Is it okay to leave open?

Although it's possible to leave your testing session running until more students arrive, you cannot keep it running overnight. Every night, they are closed automatically, and any students left in a testing status switch to suspended status.

Note: Your Proctor profile is also limited to running only one testing session at a time. If needed, you can add students to a testing session by clicking the Add More Students button.

Delete Test Session—Does that remove test results?

No, the tests are associated with the students, not the test sessions. Closing or deleting a testing session does not affect test results. Students can resume incomplete tests in the same or another testing session.

When a single student finishes early: 

1. First consider how long the student has been testing.

   Ideally, a student should take no more than one full MAP test per day.

2. If you do decide to give another test:
   1. On your proctor computer, select the student.

   2. Click Select Action and choose Test Again.

      The student's status changes from Completed to Awaiting Student.

   3. Select the student again and click Assign Test.
   4. Instruct the student to sign in again with the same session name and password.
      

When time runs out for everyone:

In this situation, you should suspend the tests for all students who are still testing.

See Suspend Tests for instructions.

To end and discard a test permanently:

For example, you might have accidentally assigned a test that the student should never take.

Use caution: 

• You cannot reverse this action. The system discards any answers already given.
• Terminated tests will count toward the frequency restriction, if enabled. As a result, the student would be restricted from taking the test for the rest of the term.

1. Select the student or students.
2. Click Select Action, choose Terminate, and click OK when prompted.
