Unlike traditional standardized tests that utilize multiple-choice formats, TELPAS Alternate evaluates students across four key domains: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. It relies on the observation of specific behaviors by test administrators to reflect the student's proficiency level in alignment with the Texas English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS). This assessment tool provides an alternative framework to ensure that the unique linguistic needs of this specific student population are accurately captured. By focusing on observable behaviors, educators gain deeper insights into a student’s daily communication capabilities and language development progress within an academic context, facilitating a more inclusive educational environment.",{"@graph":69,"@context":127},[70,84,106],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/telpas-alternate-texas-english-language-proficiency-assessment-system-overview/498649/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/telpas-alternate-texas-english-language-proficiency-assessment-system-overview/498649.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Patrick","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-09","2026-10-03",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":105},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",12,{"@type":107,"mainEntity":108},"FAQPage",[109,115,119,123],{"name":110,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":112},"What is TELPAS Alternate?","Question",{"text":113,"@type":114},"TELPAS Alternate is a holistic inventory aligned with the Texas English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS) designed to assess the English language proficiency of students with specific needs.","Answer",{"name":116,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":117},"How does TELPAS Alternate differ from a traditional test?",{"text":118,"@type":114},"Unlike traditional tests, it does not use multiple-choice questions, but rather utilizes observable behaviors reflected upon by test administrators across four language domains.",{"name":120,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":121},"What are the four domains assessed by TELPAS Alternate?",{"text":122,"@type":114},"The four domains assessed are listening, speaking, reading, and writing.",{"name":124,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":125},"What is required to view a student's TELPAS Alternate scores?",{"text":126,"@type":114},"To view scores, parents or guardians need their child's Unique Access Code or social security number, along with their birthdate.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":129,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":131,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":133,"site_id":62},498649,1791667181,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":136},{"doc_id":133,"user_id":137,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":138,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":139,"file_id":140,"file_url":141,"file_type":142,"file_size":143,"view_count":105,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":8,"language":144,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":145,"faqs":146,"seo_title":147,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":148,"read_time":81,"preview_page_count":4},549758146520,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/avatar/80002397d8c0411e94?_k=1775819394049821470","TELPAS Alternate  \nTexas English Language Proficiency Assessment System  \nTELPAS Alternate is a holistic inventory aligned with the Texas English Language Proficiency Standards ( ELPS) ; however, TELPAS Alternate is based on alternate PLD’s, which were created to address the specific needs of this student population.
