Test Innovators has yet another test prep innovation that we’re excited to share with you – Timed Paper Test Mode.
For years, we’ve offered detailed timing feedback on our online platform, which provides valuable insights for students and educators to see how much time is spent per question, as well as an overview of how students spend their time on the test.
As of August 2017, students can now take a test on paper and receive these same results. Students simply enter their answer choices directly into the online bubble sheet in real-time, allowing our adaptive system to collect timing data throughout the test.
Timed Paper Test Mode allows you to combine the real-life experience of taking a test on paper with a full diagnostic timing report, revolutionizing the process of understanding a student’s time management in a real-life scenario. It is truly the best of both worlds.
