Beginning 10/2/17, WebXam posted most available tests. Teachers and administrators should reference the Assessment Matrix on ODE's website for guidance on which tests are available for your courses.
- Pathway-based practice tests contain 20 items and are designed to provide students and teachers an opportunity to experience taking a WebXam test to become familiar with the item types and the testing system. Results are never used for reporting purposes, but are a convenient way for teachers and students to work through released items for familiarization and to see the scope of items across pathway courses.
- Field tests contain 80-100 items, and their purpose is to collect data on newly developed test questions.
- Posttests contain 40-items and are finalized test forms required after course instruction is complete. Posttests results are reported to EMIS by local districts using data supplied by CETE.
Visit the WebXam Calendar for more information.
