How are testing results reported?
NCLB requires that states, school districts and schools receive testing results in a specific timeframe. This means that states and assessment companies must work quickly to score tests and report their results to schools. Many states have shifted to web-based reporting, which allows schools to get results faster and access, analyze or print testing results from any location. When it comes to online reporting, security and privacy issues are of the utmost importance. Assessment companies work closely with schools and school districts to ensure that secure servers, secure websites and tools like user authentication and encryption are used in the data download process.
