Read the first 7 Accommodations flashcards as text
Which accommodation allows a student with dyslexia to hear test questions read aloud?
Answer: Text-to-speech (TTS) or oral reading of items
Text-to-speech technology or a human reader reads test content aloud, helping students who struggle to decode written text.
What is the purpose of a 'read-aloud' accommodation restriction on ELA reading passages?
Answer: To prevent the accommodation from measuring a skill the test is designed to assess
Reading aloud an ELA reading passage would undermine the measurement of the student's own reading comprehension ability, which is a tested skill.
A student with ADHD is allowed to take movement breaks during the Questar Test. This accommodation is classified as which type?
Answer: Scheduling/timing accommodation
Movement breaks relate to how the test session is timed and scheduled, making this a scheduling/timing accommodation.
Which professional is responsible for ensuring that accommodations listed in a student's IEP are correctly implemented on test day?
Answer: The test administrator or proctor assigned to that student
The test administrator is directly responsible for implementing all approved accommodations during the test session.
If a student's accommodation is accidentally omitted on test day, what should the test administrator do FIRST?
Answer: Document the error and immediately contact the district testing coordinator
Documenting and reporting the error to the district coordinator preserves the integrity of the process and allows the issue to be addressed appropriately.
Which of the following accommodations is classified as a 'response accommodation'?
Answer: Allowing a student to type responses instead of writing by hand
A response accommodation changes the way a student records or provides answers, such as typing instead of handwriting.
A bilingual student who is an English Language Learner may be eligible for which Questar Test accommodation?
Answer: Translated test directions or a bilingual word-to-word dictionary
ELL students may receive translated directions or a bilingual word-to-word dictionary to access directions without affecting measurement of content knowledge.
