Overview of Test Rules and Navigation

This chapter provides instructions for educators to use when entering scores or student responses into the DEI.

  • Item score and response entries can be reviewed and edited before submitting the test.
  • A score or response entry may be left blank for any of the tests that must be entered into the DEI. If any of the scores or responses have been skipped—as indicated by a red triangle on the Data Entry Summary screen—return to those items and verify whether the item was intentionally skipped by the student. If not, enter the missing information before the test is submitted.
  • If the Mark as No Response option is selected from the context menu, the answer choices are grayed out and cannot be selected. By deselecting the Mark as No Response option, the answer choices will be available for selecting again.
  • Carefully enter and review scores before submitting as interim assessments cannot be reopened once submitted.
