Placement Test Guidelines

Placement Test Guidelines

Here are the general guidelines for administering placement tests for all Direct Instruction programs.

• Instruction coaches and teachers must practise administering and scoring placement tests before giving them to students.
• Gather all materials needed for the placement tests including making copies as needed from the Placement Test Kit.
• Follow the directions exactly. Do not correct students during the test.
• If students are tested individually, ensure they cannot see or hear another student being tested. If students are being tested as a group, space their seats apart.
