Scoring Guide

  • Use the Scoring tab to view or modify how much each question is worth on a test. This page displays the Range, Factor, Weight, Percent and Mastery level of each item. 
  • The correct answer is listed in the Response column (taken from Key tab)..
  • Only for Rubric items, use the Range text box to enter the high end of the range (For example, a range of two would be scored as: 0 = no credit, 1 = partial credit, 2 = full credit). The default for rubric questions is 4.
  • Change the Factor – to modify the weight or percentage an item is worth on a test.
  • To field test items without counting against a student’s grade, make the Factor zero.
  • Rubric items are by default weighted more on an assessment. Change the factor on non-rubric questions to equally distribute the percentages or weights of items.
  • Mastery – enter the passing standard for a rubric item (e.g., rubric or 0-6/mastery = 4).
  • If Plain Paper forms are being used – a rubric range must not exceed 9. (The answer box is pre-printed on the plain paper form and will only accommodate a maximum ten bubbles – 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9). Online testing and Student Responses also have a max range of 9.

  • If prompted, to close a blocked program (e.g., screen capture, instant messaging), click Close Applications.
  • Students then complete the online assessment and click Close Secure Browser to end a session.

Collect Data

The power of TEKScore lies within the collecting and reporting of local assessment data for students. Once you have a test key setup in TEKScore,  collect student answers through the following methods.:

  • Online Testing is by far the quickest and easiest way to get student data and real-time results. With this method, students can sign in online to enter their answers. They will see the test questions and any testing supports they were given access to. As soon as they click the score button, you have access to reports. To utilize online testing, schools have to create the tests in the TAG application first. 
  • The Student Response System works similar to online testing; however, The biggest difference is that the students will not see passages or test questions. Instead, they will see something similar to what would be printed on a test form. This includes the bubbles for the answers, or griddable items. 
  • From the Responses > Manual option of the top navigation bar, locate test keys and groups of students to manually enter in their answers. For example, this can be done for students who were absent or it’s also a great way to collect data for those early grades K through 2. If the students are not ready for Online Tests or filling in bubbles on paper, you can have them complete the information and then quickly enter their answers. This opens up a whole new world of data and reporting even in the youngest grades. 
  • If you’re wanting to collect answers on paper, print test forms either on Plain Paper.
  • Plain Paper Answer documents are those that you set up on standard printer paper and print them out. Use almost any type of scanner or copier to scan in the results as long as they meet the basic criteria of:
    • Paper Size: Letter (8.5 x 11 in)
    • File Type: Multi-Page Tiff (.tif)
    • Resolution: 300 x 300 dpi
    • Scan Type: Black & White

Online Testing

Online Testing in TEKScore gives students the ability to sign in and take a test that has been activated by a teacher or administrator. 

First, tests have to be created and exported from the TAG application to be available for Online Testing. For questions, please call the Help Desk at 1.866.988.6777.
