What’s New
TestNav 8
•
Beginning with the Winter 2014 administration, all computer-based FCAT, FCAT 2.0,
and NGSSS EOC assessments will be administered using the TestNav 8 platform.
– Please see www.FLAssessments.com/TestNav8 for technical specifications and
resources for this new platform.
•
Some features that were previously accommodations are now available for all
students in the TestNav 8 platform. These features include color contrast,
increase/decrease text size, and zoom. A magnifier tool and line reader tool are also
available for all students.
•
The login information on Student Authorization Tickets and the Session Roster has
been updated to reflect the Sign In screen in TestNav 8.
•
The Login ID has been changed to Username and the Test Code had been changed
5
to Password.
What’s New
Accommodations
• Accommodations are no longer required to be recorded in
PearsonAccess for computer-based tests. However, for
students testing with paper-based materials, accommodations
still must be recorded on student grid sheets.
• Schools must maintain records of accommodations provided
and accommodations used with their required administration
information.

Proctor Caching (cont.)
The Spring 2015 Pearson FCAT/FCAT 2.0/EOC NGSSS test
administrations will utilize a new version of TestNav8.
Schools using mobile devices and the Google Chrome browser need
to take additional steps to ensure they are ready for spring testing.
These steps should be completed prior to running a Pearson
Infrastructure Trial.
• Mobile Devices: The TestNav 8 update will require an app
update for tablet users. The TestNav 8.02 app is available for
download in your specific device application store.
• Java Updates: Java will have two releases prior to the
Spring 2015 Administration; 1/20 and
4/14. Technology coordinators should be aware of these

Google Chrome: Please review the December 19, 2014 TestNav Technical
Bulletin (TestNav 8 - Google to Disable NPAPI for Chrome Browser in
2015) available at http://www.FLAssessments.com/TestNav8. The technical
bulletin contains important instructions and information for TestNav customers
who use Chrome for online testing. In order to accommodate for Google’s plan to
phase out support of the Netscape Plugin Application Programming Interface
(NPAPI) architecture required to launch TN8, PC and MAC users that access TN8
from a Chrome browser will either need to:
• ​Access TestNav 8 from an alternate browser; or
• Enable Java in the registry. Instructions and additional information can be
found in the technical bulletin.
– ​This solution will work until September 2015. ​Pearson will release a new
version of TestNav 8 to allow Chrome users to access TestNav 8 without
the registry edits.
– Chromebooks are configured to allow
the Plugin Application. Chromebook users do not have to complete the 14
registry edit to enable Java.

PreID Student Labels
FCAT/FCAT 2.0 Retake and NGSSS Algebra 1 EOC Retake Wave 1
PreID file is based on student information as of January 30 and NGSSS
EOCs Wave 1 PreID file is based on student information as of February 27
Note: PreID student labels and roster will be based on Wave 1.
Before applying PreID labels to student answer documents:
• Verify that the student is still enrolled and will be tested.
• Verify the information on the PreID roster against the school’s student
information database.
• FIVE elements MUST be correct on a student PreID label:
 Student name
 Student ID number
 District number
 School number
 Grade level
• Destroy labels in a secure manner if ANY of this information is incorrect.
• If any other preidentified information (e.g., date of birth) is incorrect,
use the PreID label
37
PreID Student Labels (cont.)
• If the student name, student ID number, district number,
school number, OR grade level is INCORRECT on a USED
answer document, the student must, under the supervision of the
test administrator, transfer his or her exact responses into a
replacement answer document.
• The test administrator must grid the DNS bubble on a book that
contains an incorrect label and return it with all other NOT TO BE
SCORED materials.
• The test administrator must then grid the correct student information
on the replacement document.
• If any student information is missing from a student label that has been
affixed to a test and answer book, add the information by gridding the
appropriate bubbles on the student grid sheet. Incorrect information
on a student label CANNOT be corrected in this manner.
• Do not use a preidentified document for any student other than the
student for whom it is preidentified.
38
Sample PreID Student Label
• Affix the label in the box in the lower left corner of the student
grid sheet.
• Do not remove labels once they have been affixed.
• Do not place a label over another label.
39
Student
Demographic
Information
• The student grid sheet
captures student demographic
information.
• A document is preidentified if
it has a student label affixed.
• Blank student grid sheets
(non-preidentified) must be
gridded using a No. 2 pencil.
• For more information about
specific demographic fields,
see page 12 of the Spring
2015 CBT Manual.
40
Test Invalidation
• Remember that the purpose of invalidation is to identify
when the validity of test results has been compromised.
• If a situation described in the Test Invalidation Policies and
Procedures section on pages 26–27 of the manual occurs,
test administrators should discuss the situation with the
school assessment coordinator, and the situation should be
investigated immediately.
• Instructions for how to invalidate tests in PearsonAccess can
be found on pages 141–142 of the Spring 2015 CBT Manual.
41
Defective Materials,
DNS and UNDO Bubbles
•
If a defective test and answer book is identified before testing begins, the
student should be given a replacement document and the defective document
should be returned with all other NOT TO BE SCORED materials.
•
If a DNS bubble has been gridded by mistake, erase the DNS bubble and grid
the UNDO bubble. Package the document with TO BE SCORED materials.
•
The DNS bubble MUST be gridded if any of the following circumstances offer:
1. The test and answer book is defective and USED.
2. A student name, student ID number, district number, school
number, OR grade level is INCORRECT on a label affixed to a USED
book.
3. A student label has been placed over another student label on a USED book.
42
Defective Materials,
DNS and UNDO Bubbles
•
If a student discovers that a document is defective during testing, the student
must be given a replacement and must, under close supervision, transcribe the
exact responses from the defective document into the replacement when the test
session is over.
•
If the defective document has a student label, do not remove the label. Grid all
information on the student grid sheet of the replacement document. Grid the
DNS bubble on the defective USED book and return it with all other NOT
TO BE SCORED materials.
•
Under the following circumstances, it is NOT necessary to grid the DNS bubble if
the document has been packaged properly for return with all other NOT TO BE
SCORED materials:
1. The preidentified test and answer book belongs to a student who has
withdrawn before testing begins.
2. The preidentified book belongs to a student who was absent during the entire
testing window.
3. The book is defective and UNUSED.
4. The preidentified information is incorrect and the book is UNUSED.
43
Enrollment Information/
Testing History
• For non-preidentified test and answer books, complete the
Student Enrollment Information Box to indicate whether the
student is currently enrolled in, was previously enrolled in, or has
never been enrolled in one of the courses in the Course List Box.
