This tool will show a student what they will experience with the check-in process on their day of testing; it is also a good indicator if student’s device is set-up correctly. The tool shows the student how to use tools within the test.  \nTake note that we have disabled the Room Scan – students will still be recorded, and security of test is still upheld.  \nOnce you complete your diagnostic test, and share your screen, instead of the Room Scan, you will be asked to “smile” to verify lighting is ok, and approve the use of Proctorio. Student will then be notified that the online test is loading, once it loads, you will receive a “start my test.” Click there, and your test will begin immediately. Performing the System Pre-Check and Navigation tool will replicate the process you will experience on the day of testing.  \nFixes for common issues on the day of testing  \n• Be sure Chrome browser and Proctorio extension have been loaded on your testing device in advance of your exam day.  \n• You MUST use the chrome browser on the day of testing.  \n• If possible, “hard-wire” your testing device plugging it in with a network cable to limit potential WiFi issues.  \n• Make sure your device is plugged in and/or charged.  \n• Prior to testing, re-start your computer; close all apps, including social media, all tabs and shut off all notifications.  \n• You may not have VPN running.  \n• You may not have any devices (including phones , monitors, printers) plugged into your testing device.  \n• On the “share your Screen page” click on the very center box within the screen (the box within the box) , and your “Share” button will turn blue.  \n• At no point should you click on the “stop sharing” button. If you do, you will be booted from the exam. You will see a black screen with a padlock that says, “Your exam ended, and you have been logged out”. Start the login process again. You will be brought back to the same question with the remaining time left. You will not lose time when you are logged off.  \n• If you receive a white screen during testing, hit Function 5, or log off, clear cache and log back in. Please note that you will have to go through the Proctorio sign-in process again.  \n• Error 404 usually indicates that there is an asset missing from the requested page. It is possible that the test takers already accessed this page before, and it is attempting to load the cached version of this page. Clearing cache will highly improve your browser performance. Try clearing cache and cookies by clicking on the three-dot icon in the top right-hand corner of their browser> More tools > Clear browsing data > Click on Advanced tab > change the \"Time range\" to \"All time\" > make sure that every box except for the \"Passwords...\" is checked and then click on\"Clear data\" , then restart Google Chrome try again. You will re-enter the exam where you left off.  \nThe day of testing and about the test  \n• Students may NOT use calculators.  \n• No phones should be in the room with the student.  \n• Scratch paper can be used for student for Reading, Written Expression, a","cbCairwG9oAQDN3M","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairwG9oAQDN3M","pdf",170411,"English","# Pre-Exam Setup\n## Review with Parents/Guardians\n## Run System Pre-Check and Navigation tool\n# Technical Requirements and Test Steps\n## Chrome and Proctorio installation\n## Check webcam and microphone\n## Start the test process\n# Common Issues and Fixes\n## Screen sharing requirements\n## Proctorio sign-in after errors\n## Error 404 and cache clearing\n# Testing Rules and Schedule\n## Allowed materials and devices","[{\"question\":\"What must parents/guardians and students do before the exam day?\",\"answer\":\"Review the document together and become familiar with scenarios that may occur during testing.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the System Pre-Check and Navigation tool used for?\",\"answer\":\"It shows what students will experience during check-in, indicates whether the device is set up correctly, and demonstrates how tools are used within the test.\"},{\"question\":\"What should a student do if they receive a white screen during testing?\",\"answer\":\"Hit Function 5 or log off, then clear cache and log back in; the Proctorio sign-in process will be required again.\"}]","Tips for Day of Testing | PDF",1790496634]
