How can I review my students' placement test results?

If your student is assigned to a class, you can view their test in Class Management. Otherwise, you can review it on their Student Profile. 

When viewing an assigned placement test, there are three different statuses:

• Not started yet (Assigned, not started): You have assigned the test, but the student has not opened it yet. 
• Ongoing (Started, not submitted): The student has opened the test but has not answered all of the questions yet. 
• Not reviewed: The test is completed and is ready for you to review. 

Follow the steps below for the test you assigned

1. Adaptive Placement Test

2. Standard Placement Test

Gap Analysis

The Gap Analysis displays errors, and

1. the level at which the error occurred
2. the question of the error
3. the student's answer
4. the correct answer

5. the recommended lesson from the Off2Class library that addresses the knowledge gap

Errors are organized by level, starting at lower levels and progressing to higher levels. Recommended lessons are automatically added to the student’s learning plan.

Additional Skills

Listening 

The student is given a listening prompt that reflects the level they scored in the grammar section. A visual reference is provided with the prompt to support the listening task. Click Play to hear exactly what the student heard. Below the audio, you can review the questions the student answered incorrectly, along with a note indicating whether the student’s listening proficiency aligns with their grammar proficiency.

Reading

The student is given a level-appropriate reading text. View the text and review any errors the student made.

Writing

The student is given a level-appropriate writing prompt. Review the student’s response and evaluate whether their writing proficiency aligns with their grammar, listening, and speaking levels.

Speaking

The student is given a speaking prompt and asked to record their response using their microphone. Listen to the recording to hear the student’s spoken response.

Additional Actions

1. Padlock: Click the padlock to give your student access to the results so they can review them in Off2Class. 
2. Print: Click to save and print the results to share with your student.

3. Create a Certificate: Create a certificate for your student to document their current learning level. 

The placement test allows you to generate a customized learning plan based on each student’s results, using the recommended lessons identified in the test. Assign the placement test early in a course to identify student needs, and again at the end of the course to measure progress. Each attempt generates a different set of questions.

Changes to the default framework in your lesson library (CEFR, WIDA, TELPAS, CA ELD, or NY) are reflected in student results and on certificates. For example, if CEFR is set as your standard, placement test results are displayed as A1–C1. If WIDA is selected, results are displayed as Pre-Entering, Bridging–Reaching, and so on.
