About Testing Online

Note: Jump to Testing Students Online if you are conducting Benchmark tests or have already set up your Progress Monitoring measures for the Group you are testing.

All easyCBM measures should be administered online whenever possible to avoid manual errors and to make data available immediately for processing and reporting.

For Benchmark testing online, the system is set up by easyCBM, your district, and your Head Administrator. For Progress Monitoring measures, see Setting Up Progress Monitoring (PM) Measures.

Both measure types provide a Preview link beside the Take Online text. Clicking this allows you to view individual test items or demonstrate to students how to begin a test.

Important: Because the preview version shows actual test items, you should not provide students with answers to “example” questions, as doing so will invalidate student scores. Answers selected in the preview version are not saved.

For information on setting up  Fluency Progress Monitoring measures, see Administering Fluency-Based Measures.
