Tech Tip for Tech Campus Leaders.

Maintaining the security and confidentiality of all components of the Texas Assessment Program is critical for ensuring fair and equal testing opportunities for all Texas students. Given the many uses of student performance data and the need to assure educators, parents, students, and the public that test results are meaningful and valid, it is imperative that all individuals participating in the Texas Assessment Program preserve the integrity of test content and student data through strict adherence to the instructions and procedures contained in the Coordinator Resources and the test administration materials. Secure Materials STAAR assessments are secure assessment instruments. The contents of these assessments, including student information used or obtained in their administration, are confidential. Secure materials include all online assessments and test session IDs. Test questions from statemandated assessments such as STAAR must remain secure until the questions are released and available in the Centralized Reporting System (CRS) or on the Practice Test Site or the TEA website. Test tickets are not secure, but since they contain personally identifiable information, they must be kept confidential. Test security involves accounting for all secure materials before, during, and after each test administration. Testing Incidents There are two types of testing incidents that might result from district testing personnel actions taken before, during, and after testing—procedural testing irregularities and serious testing violations. Testing personnel should understand the distinctions between different types of testing incidents so that any that occur may be properly reported and addressed. Procedural Testing Irregularities Procedural testing irregularities are less severe and more common than serious testing violations and typically occur when district testing personnel deviate from specified testing procedures. Annual training on test security and administration procedures and administration-specific training are the best ways for district personnel to avoid procedural irregularities. Examples of specific types of procedural testing irregularities follow. Training on test security and administration procedures should be provided annually to ensure a standardized test administration and the best testing experience for Texas students. Annual training is especially important for understanding and implementing new or updated policies and procedures. Lack of annual training typically results in testing incidents that may impact students' test scores, campus and district accountability ratings, and, ultimately, an educator's teaching certificate.

Professional Development to enhance their teaching approach to adjust to the curricula.
