Directions for Interim Assessments:
- Testing Schedule
Like the SBAC, successfully scheduling and deploying chromebooks for the interim assessments is key. Sites should collaborate to build their testing schedule and share with Rob Mangewala.
- Request Help
We are trying to ensure that you have at least one person from the DO to help. Please be sure to request help if you need it.
- Usernames
Sites were provided with student user names and passwords to login to Illuminate. If you did not receive them or need an additional copy, please contact your site administrator.
- Directions
The following Power Point details how to give the Interim Assessment. Please note that there are two ways to navigate to the Illuminate Home Connection Portal. Chromebooks are programed to open an automatic tab for the Illuminate Home Connection Portal once students click on the window titled “Assessment”. Students can also access the Illuminate portal via the District website at the following link: https://sanleandro.illuminatehc.com/auth

The link below will take you to the shared google folder that contains the teacher booklet for each of the interim assessments. Please note that the paper booklet formatting will not be accurate because the web-based items don’t translate to paper.
