Move Every Student Forward with an Innovative, Research-Based Assessment Remotely with TerraNova Survey Online
As school districts continue to reopen after COVID-19 related closures, educators need data to address gaps in student learning and to guide decisions about providing services to students most at risk. With the challenges of remote learning, data such as grades and classroom-based performance may not be available to guide planning. Districts will need to assess student data that translates into valuable, informed decision-making in the classroom.
DRC has developed and implemented a robust and secure Remote Testing Plan for TerraNova Survey Online. DRC’s remote testing solution allows the TerraNova Survey Online assessment to retain 3 critical factors: reliability, validity, and security. From a practitioner standpoint, DRC’s remote solution is viable and executable from both the standpoint of the Test Administrator (TA) and from the student who is taking the test remotely.
