NYSED is planning a gradual approach to implementing CBT with extensive support and communication. In the 2015-16 school year all operational assessments will be administered on paper, but schools will have the option of administering the stand-alone field tests by computer or paper. Beginning with the 2016-17 school year, schools will have the option of administering the operational tests as well as the stand-alone field tests by either computer or paper. It will be at the discretion of the local school and school district whether each school will administer the tests by paper or computer each year. The Department’s contractor, Questar Assessment, Inc., will continue to provide both computer and paper tests for the duration of the contract. Click here to read the full memo from Beth Berlin.
