SAGE Testing Ethics and Test Security
Sage Assessments are highly secure. Make sure that
all teachers who administer SAGE assessments always
remember to:
•
•
•
•
•
Verify students’ identity before approving their
participation is SAGE tests.
Not allow students to remove any SAGE test content.
Not take any SAGE test content back to their classroom
to work on it.
Securely destroy any and all SAGE notes and student
work after students are finished with the test.
Know and follow the SAGE Test Administration Manual
(TAM) directions exactly as given.
Make sure that …
• All teachers, and other staff members, who assist with
Summative SAGE assessments in any way, have completed
testing ethics training.
• Teachers and other staff members are provided with a copy
of USOE’s “Testing Ethics Policy” document and informed of
their responsibility to understand and follow the document’s
contents.
• Signed documentation is maintained verifying teachers’, and
other staff members’, understanding of ethical testing
procedures and agreement to follow ethical testing
practices. (Ethics Policy Sign-off form)

2015 SAGE Testing Times
“Though these assessments are untimed, it is inappropriate for the test administrator
to allow students to take excessive time to test.
In rare circumstances a student may need to take longer than the expected times.
These situations must be discussed with the LEA Assessment Director to ensure that
students have an appropriate opportunity to complete testing.”

Before seeing test questions, students are given an opportunity to review three
important areas of testing instructions and help:
• Test Tools
• Basic Test Rules
• Text-to-Speech feature
To begin the test, students click the
“Begin Test Now” button.
Basic Test Rules
• Students must answer each question. They can answer a question and mark it for
review, then go back to it later to see or change their answer.
• Students must answer all questions on a page before moving on to the next page.
(Some pages have a lot of information. Students may need to use the vertical
scroll bar to view all the information on a page.)
• Students can pause their test at any time. Pausing the test will log the student
out.
• When a student resumes the test, he/she will see the first page that has
unanswered questions.
• If a student’s test is idle for 20 minutes, the system will automatically pause the
test and log the student out.
– An exception to this rule is the Writing test. Students may return to a Writing test prompt even
after a 20 minute pause has occurred.
• For Math (except Math 6th), Science, and ELA Reading and Listening:
– If a test is paused for less than 20 minutes and the student logs back in, she/he can review
questions already answered.
– If a student’s test is paused for more than 20 minutes and the student logs back in, he/she
cannot review questions already answered. The only exception is if the student pauses on a page
that has at least one unanswered question.
Basic Test Rules (cont.)
• The Writing Test and the Math 6th Grade are segmented.
– In segmented tests, students must complete all questions in the first segment before
moving on to the second segment.
• For ELA Writing:
– Writing is divided into two segments, each with one written response required. The
student can pause within a Writing segment at any time.
– For the first essay: The student can review and edit his/her response until they move on
to the next segment. Once a student moves on to the second segment, he/she cannot
go back to his/her first essay. (Students MUST finish their first writing essay BEFORE
looking at or beginning the second writing essay.)
– For the second essay: The student can review and edit his/her response until he/she is
done and ready to submit the writing test.
– Once the writing test has been submitted, neither the first or second essay can be
reviewed or edited.
• For Math 6th Grade:
– The first segment of the Math 6th Test is a non-calculator segment. Students can review
and edit their responses until they move to the next segment. Once they move on to
the second segment, they cannot go back to the first segment.
– For the second segment, the use of a calculator is permitted. Students can review and
edit their responses until they are done and submit their test.
Navigation, Writing, and Test Tools
Navigation Tools
The Navigation Tools enable
students to move to the next or
previous test question, save
answers during a test, and/or
pause their test.
Within the Writing Test, the Writing Tools
enable students to bold text, italicize text,
underline text, remove text formatting,
increase or decrease text indentation,
cut, copy, or paste text, “undo” and
“redo” recent writing actions, check
spelling, and insert text symbols.
Test Tools
Test Tools help students to
answer questions specific
to the given test. These will
be reviewed on the next few
slides.
Writing Tools
Scoring Guide
Within the Writing test, the
Scoring Guide allows students
to see the proportional
scoring weights for the
different aspects of their
written essays.
Masking
Masking allows students to
“mask” over options or items
they want to temporarily
remove from consideration.
Dictionary
Math and Science Dictionary
The Dictionary allows students
to:
1) type in words they wish to
have defined, and/or
2) Click on this box to see the
Spanish translation of a word
displayed here.
ELA Dictionary
The ELA: Writing, Reading,
Language, and Listening
Dictionary also provides a
“Thesaurus” button.
Calculator and Note Tools
Clicking the “Calculator”
button will provide an
online calculator for
students to use.
Clicking the “Notes” button
will produce a notepad that
students can use during the
current testing session.
Any notes created during a testing
session are NOT saved when the
testing session is closed.
Formulas
Some SAGE assessments provide a
“Formula” button to access formulas
and/or charts to assist in solving test
questions.
Additional Test Tools
Test Tools also include “Zoom Out”
and “Zoom In” buttons to enlarge or
decrease the font size during
testing.
In the upper right corner of
each SAGE test, there is a “?”
button to provide help in using
all Testing Tools.
Also in the upper right
corner of each SAGE test,
there is this button which
allows students to adjust
the volume of sound
during the Listening
portion of the ELA test or
when using Text-to-Speech.
Context Menus
Each SAGE test question has one or more sets of three horizontal bars.
When
clicked, these horizontal bars provide a “Context Menu” of available actions for that
question. An example of a “Context Menu” is provided below:
The “Tutorial” provides
a video clip to help the
student know how to
respond to the given
question.
If the student wants to
“flag” the question and
revisit it later, the “Mark for
Review “ option would be
selected.
To determine available
text-to-speech options
available for the question,
select the “Speak Option”.
To enable a “Strike through”
tool, students would select
this option.
Text-to-Speech
Students can listen to test instructions, passages, and questions as appropriate. For the
ELA Reading/Listening items, some passages will not be read aloud.
Students should be provided with opportunities to practice the use of “Text-to-Speech”.
Have students log in to a training test, using the secure browser. This will enable the
“Text-to-Speech” features so students can practice:
• To listen to a passage, click the passage context menu and select the [Speak] option
you want. You can select a small portion of text, such as a word, phrase, or paragraph
to listen to. Select the text, click the passage context menu, and select the [Speak
Selection] option.
• To listen to a question or answer options, click the question context menu and select
the [Speak] option you want.
• To listen only to the question, select [Speak Question] .
• To listen to the multiple-choice question and all answer options, select [Speak
Question and Options] .
• To listen only to the answer option, click on the answer option select [Speak
Option]. You can also right-click on the answer option and select [Speak Option].
(For example, if you want to listen to answer option A, right-click on that answer
option and select [Speak Option A].)
Proceeding Through the Test
• To answer multiple-choice items, students must click the desired option or click the
circle with A,B, C, or D.
• To answer machine-scored constructed response items, students need to carefully
follow the instructions given for each question.
• Each question MUST be answered before going on to the next question.
• If a student is unsure about a given question, he/she may “flag” it for review later
using the “Context Menu”.
Item Sets
• Some questions are grouped together because they are based
on the same reading passage, simulation, or listening passage.
• Students can move through these questions using the number
button (highlighted in the red box above) or the “Next” or
“Back” button.
• All questions in the “Item Set” must be answered before a
student can move to later questions in the test.

Test Status Code Report
Test Status Code Reports are critical to ensuring the accuracy of schools’ 2015 SAGE
testing. School Test Coordinators and Administrators should carefully review these
reports throughout and near the end of the SAGE testing window.
Three Important things remember:
1. At the end of the testing window, all student tests with “No Special Code,” must have a completed,
submitted, reported, or scored Test Status code or show participation in at least 6 test questions.
2. At the end of the testing window, all students’ tests that do NOT have a completed, submitted, reported, or
scored Test Status code, or show participation in at least 6 test questions, MUST have a non-participation
Special Code.
3. Changes in Special Codes MUST be done in TIDE.
All school test coordinators are required to carefully go over and review this report by phone with
RaDean Meyers at the end of both the Writing and ELA/Math/Science testing windows.
