Everyone who plans to take the 2014 test should start on this page. Read over thre tips THEN go right to tour the test. When you click on Tour the test, there is a great resource of sample style questions and info for students. Student can try out drag and drop, see tabbed information, see the box for extended response format and try the functions available. I had all the students in my fast track class try it out as a group and work through questions on Monday. This gave me a chance to asses computer skills, typing skills and understanding of testing procedures. (Try it out on Smart Board )
The tabbed browser is one of the most confusing pieces of the test. It shows a pop up which does not allow the student to continue if they do not view all the info. This is not possible if they do not realize the browsing is tabbed. Look below where the red arrow is located for placement of tab. Students must open all 3 on this sample. So far two of my students have take the GED ready and both have had issues with this even after taking this tutorial. Please have all students try it out teachers. Students... don't forget to check for TABS!!!!
