  riding a bike.

• You cant just explain it in words. You have to
  get on the bike and try it.

• Hopefully I can make the curve a bit
  easier.
• One of the easiest ways to make a test is
  to use one youve already created.

5

• Go to www.edusoft.com, type in your login
  and password, then go to Teacher Tools, then
  Assessments.

6

• When you click Assessments, you will get
  this screen. Click My Tests, then Align an
  Existing Test.

7

• Notice the next screen now says Align a
  Test instead of Assessments. Click CONTINUE at
  the bottom.

8

• Enter a name for the test, and give a
  general description, such as the test date, or
  further information. Then click CONTINUE. You
  can leave the Standards Group on the default.

9

• On the next screen, you must choose a standards
  subject category from the pull-down menu, and
  then...

10

• choose a grade-level category and click
  CONTINUE.

11

• The next screen will show you all the
  standards for the subject and grade level you
  chose. Check the standards that will apply to
  this test. You MUST pick at least ONE. Then
  click CONTINUE.

12

• For this sample test on the Six Traits, I
  chose four language arts standards. Click
  CONTINUE.

13

• Remember, I just want to create a scantron
  sheet for a multiple choice test (10 questions)
  that I will hand out to the students.

14

• So on the next screen, I choose of
  question 10, leave 4 as the default for multiple
  choice, and I want to make each question worth 5
  points. Then Click CONTINUE.

15

• On the next screen, click the correct
  answer for each question on your test. You MUST
  also align each question with one of the
  standards you chose in the beginning. Then click
  SAVE FINISH.

16

• The last screen gives you the option to
  edit the test. If it is correct, there is no
  CONTINUE. When finished, click the Back button
  on the top left to get back to your folders.

17

• To print the scantron sheets, click My
  Tests, and click the name of your new test on the
  right. Then click PRINT ANSWER SHEETS..

18

• Select the class that will receive this
  test, then click view.

19

• On the next screen, click View test.

20

• Edusoft will generate a PDF scantron
  that you can print and give to your students.
  When you scan in their bubbled answers, their
  grades will be recorded in your Reports.

21

• You can then click Return and go back to
  your folders (called your assessment locker).
