  1. What is a 'designated support' in the context of Questar Test accommodations, compared to an 'accommodation'?

    Answer: A designated support is available to any student who needs it; an accommodation requires an IEP or 504 Plan

    Designated supports are available to any student deemed to need them by a teacher or parent, while accommodations require documentation through an IEP or 504 Plan.

  2. A student with a medical condition needs to eat a snack during testing. This is an example of which type of accommodation?

    Answer: Medical/health accommodation under scheduling or setting

    Allowing food or medical supplies during testing is a health-related accommodation typically categorized under scheduling or setting adjustments.

  3. Which of the following would be considered an INVALID accommodation because it fundamentally alters what the test measures?

    Answer: Allowing a student to use a dictionary on a vocabulary knowledge test

    Using a dictionary on a vocabulary test removes the skill being measured and is therefore an invalid accommodation that changes the construct being tested.

  4. When a student with an accommodation transfers to a new school mid-year, what must happen before they test with their accommodations?

    Answer: The receiving school must obtain and review the student's IEP or 504 Plan and implement it promptly

    Federal law requires the receiving school to honor and implement the student's existing IEP or 504 Plan while any updates or revisions are being made.

  5. What should a test administrator do if a student with extended time accommodation finishes the test before their additional time is used?

    Answer: Allow the student to submit and stop testing — unused time does not need to be used

    Extended time is an entitlement, not a requirement — a student may stop testing whenever they are finished, regardless of remaining time.

  6. Which of the following best describes the role of the Section 504 Plan in test accommodations?

    Answer: It provides accommodations for students with disabilities who do not qualify for special education under IDEA

    Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act covers students with disabilities who do not meet IDEA's eligibility criteria but still require accommodations for equal access.

  7. A proctor notices that the student's approved accommodation list says 'calculator allowed on math sections' but the student was not given one. The test has already begun. What is the correct action?

    Answer: Stop the student, provide the calculator, note the start time, and document the correction

    Once the omission is discovered, the proctor should immediately correct it, provide the tool, and document the incident for the testing record.
