Not a fan of mandated standardized testing anyway, you might imagine my dismay when I read the last bullet item of this whitepaper offer.


Many school districts have recently mandated that all high-stakes testing will transition to an online environment. By 2014, in Indiana, all ISTEP+ testing must be conducted online and completed within a few weeks.

Download "Refresh: A Critical Part of a District Technology Strategy" to learn how to:
  • Utilize portable devices that can be set up in the gym or cafeteria for testing
  • Ensure all power requirements/outlets are in place
  • Finalize Windows 7 compatibility testing
