Question 1

A student's device loses internet connectivity mid-test in Cambium. What should the test administrator do first?

Accepted Answer

Check whether the testing application saved responses locally and attempt to reconnect

Cambium's TestNav application caches responses locally, so the TA should first attempt to reconnect and recover the saved responses before escalating.

Question 2

Which document must a test administrator complete when an irregularity occurs during a Cambium-administered assessment?

Accepted Answer

Testing Incident Report

Answer

A Testing Incident Report (or Testing Irregularity Report) must be completed and submitted to the appropriate coordinator whenever a testing irregularity occurs.

Question 3

How far in advance should a test administrator verify that all student test assignments are correctly set up in the Cambium platform?

Accepted Answer

At least one business day before testing begins

Answer

Best practice requires verifying student assignments at least one business day before testing to allow time to resolve any setup issues.

Question 4

A student with an approved accommodation for extended time finishes early and wants to submit. What should the TA do?

Allow the student to submit when they choose, as extended time is a maximum not a minimum

Extended time accommodations set a maximum allowable time; students are never required to use all of it and may submit when finished.

What is the primary purpose of reading aloud the standardized script before a Cambium test session begins?

Accepted Answer

To ensure all students receive uniform instructions and testing conditions
