TA Site Features

This section provides instructions for using the features available in the header at the top of the TA Site.

Look Up Students

You can use the Student Lookup tab to perform a search for student information. This is useful if students signing in to your test session cannot remember their login information.

Warning: You must ensure that a student’s demographic information is correct before testing begins. If a student’s information is not correct, that student should not begin testing.

To perform searches:

Open the Student Lookup tab. The Advanced Search tab displays.
1. Select the appropriate district/school from the dropdown lists.
2. Select the appropriate grade level.
3. If a grade is selected, it is optional to provide a student’s first or last name. If All Grades is selected, a first or last name must be provided.
Select the magnifying glass icon.

In the Sample Items Site, you can view and print a list of every print request you approved during the current session.

From the Menu in the top-right corner, select Print Requests. The Print Requests dialog opens and displays the resolved print requests.
