Best Practices When Taking Tests
 | When taking a test, students should: Complete the test in one sitting. Ensure their computer has a strong internet connection and is fully charged. Be in an environment free from noise and distraction. Avoid being tired, hungry, etc. While working on lessons, students can take hand-written notes, which can then be referenced while taking quizzes and tests. Other resources available to students, such as websites, should NOT be used while taking quizzes and tests.

Test Attempts
 | Alternate Tests: Students are given only one attempt on each unit test. If there is an alternate test available, students may request to take the alternate test in place of the first test. Alternate tests are only available based on teacher discretion, and teachers may require students to complete corrections on the original test (without receiving points back) to help them prepare for the alternate test. If a student scores lower on the alternate test, the student should speak to their teacher about ways to raise their grade. If a student scores lower on the alternate test, the student may request that the teacher accept the higher score. Students are not allowed to submit corrections or take alternate tests in previously completed units if they are within three weeks of the end of the course.
