First, familiarize yourself with some of the basics of the test and make sure you are receiving our latest updates.  \n✔ Sign up for our monthly newsletter, In Session, to get test updates, helpful resources and program news.  \n✔ Look through our student study guides. These provide an overview of the skills being tested and include sample problems for each skill.  \n2. Once you know the basics, now it is time to better understand the student experience [in GED.com](in GED.com).  \n✔ Feel free to create your own account in [GED.com](GED.com) so you understand what your students will go through (please list your last name as “Candidate” so we know you are an instructor) .  \n✔ Take the free practice test so you understand the format of the test and the different types of questions.  \n✔ Finally, consider taking a GED Ready® test, the official GED practice test. This is half the length of the GED test and is highly predictive of how students will perform on the actual test.  \n— Make sure you review your detailed score report. This is the report that tells students the areas they need to work on to score higher on the test.  \n— Notice that they can select their study materials from the d","cbCaibR16WlhwpBe","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibR16WlhwpBe","pdf",310247,22,"English","# New Educator Checklist\n## Basics of the GED test\n## Understanding the student experience\n## Practice and predictive tools\n# Chapter 1: The GED Test – A Closer Look\n## GED test basics\n## GED test benefits\n## Reasoning Through Language Arts (RLA) test content\n## Mathematical Reasoning test content\n## Science test content\n## Social Studies test content\n# Chapter 2: What Scores Look Like\n## My Scores\n## How I Can Score Higher (Personal Study Plan)\n## What My Score Means\n## My Written Answers\n# Chapter 3: Strategies for Teaching the Test\n## Use Performance Level Descriptors\n## Focus on highest-impact skills\n## Prepare with test-day tools\n## Teach RLA extended responses and feedback\n## Organize math problems\n## Watch GED Testing Service webinars\n# Chapter 4: See If Your Students Are Ready\n## How GED Ready predicts test performance\n## Interpreting GED Ready practice test scores\n## Using the personal study plan\n## What to do if a student doesn’t pass","[{\"question\":\"What should new GED educators do first to prepare for teaching the test?\",\"answer\":\"Review the latest basics of the GED test, sign up for test updates, and explore student study guides with sample problems.
