What do the Assessment Series assessments look like for students?

This article is intended only for customers and partners using the Assessment Series.

Once the Start Date has arrived for the CommonLit assessment you scheduled for your class, your students will see the assessment appear on their My Assignments page under the class's name.

To begin, students should click on the assessment to open the test. Then, they will see a window pop up with general instructions about the test. Once they have read through them, they should click the Accept button and then they'll be able to begin reading the passages and answering the questions. Note: They will see this window each time they refresh their page or re-open their test.

The assessments include three reading passages and multiple choice questions, some of which may be multi-select questions. Once students have carefully read the three texts and answered each question to the best of their ability, they should:

  1. Click Next on the last question of the assessment,
  2. Review and return to any unanswered questions flagged in the Review Assessment panel,
  3. Click Next again, and then click Submit on the "Ready to submit assessment?" window that appears. If they need to return to the assessment for any reason, they can click Cancel.

Once the student has submitted their assessment, they will no longer see it on their My Assignments page.
