ASA Alerts
The following “alerts” provide reminders of unique characteristics of this assessment and areas
that require special attention.
1. Kanetra Germany, at the SDE, is your primary contact at (334) 242-8038.
2. The Alabama Science Assessment (ASA) will be administered in Grades 5 and 7 during the
window of April 28- May 23, 2014.
3. All students participating in the ASA must take the test in English and on the grade level for
which they are enrolled. No out-of-level testing is allowed.
4. Spring 2014 ASA test booklets, answer documents, Test Administrator Manuals, Pre-ID labels,
special format (large-print and braille) test materials, and ancillary materials will be delivered
March 24-28, 2014.
5. ASA test booklets are serialized (18 point print) in the top, left corner of the test booklets and
boxed in sequential order.
6. The deadline for ordering additional materials, including large print and braille, for testing is
March 20, 2014.
7. A bar-coded, scannable Pre-ID label is placed in the demographic section of the answer
document. The Pre-ID label contains the demographic data necessary to identify the student
taking the ASA, which will eliminate the need to hand-grid the answer document. The System
Test Coordinator or designee(s) is responsible for applying the Pre-ID labels to the answer
documents before testing begins. (The enrollment that will be used to generate the Pre-ID
Labels is the enrollment on January 31, 2014).
8. A unique, 10-digit Student Identification (ID) Number will be used for each student in the
demographic section of the answer document and on the Pre-ID label. The Student ID
Number is the identification number that the state has assigned to each student through INOW.
9. The Pre-ID labels must be placed in the correct section of the answer document. See page
ASA-14 for correct placement of the Pre-ID label. LEAs will receive student reports with no
demographic information if Pre-ID labels are placed in the incorrect section of the answer
documents. Check to ensure placement of the Pre-ID label to correct grade answer document.
Do not place the Pre-ID label on the answer document and bubble in demographics on same
answer document. Do not correct or write on Pre-ID label. Check to ensure correct label and
answer document have been given to the appropriate student.
SC, BC, TA

ASA- 3
10. For students without a Pre-Coded Student Identification Bar Code Label, a Generic School
Label must be placed on the Spring 2014 ASA answer document, and the demographic
information on the answer document must be hand-gridded.
11. Each student must be assigned to a Test Administrator who will distribute and collect the
student’s testing materials. Do not distribute materials and then move students to a different
testing location.
12. Special education students attending State-Supported/State-Operated schools will take the
ASA. The LEA is responsible for providing testing materials. The LEA is also responsible
for providing personnel for test administration except for State- Supported/State-Operated
schools that have received permission from the SDE to administer the test
13. Title I private schools will be responsible for their own testing including materials and test
administration. LEAs, however, should continue to consult with their Title I private schools
regarding testing issues in the same manner that they consult with them on other issues.
14. Testing materials should be distributed for the exact number of students being tested in each
setting. The directions for completing the demographic information do not include the use of
a test booklet or answer document for demonstration purposes.
15. Test Administrators may give out scratch paper to any student who requests it. The scratch
paper may be plain white paper or plain paper with lines (no graphic organizers or graph paper).
16. Test Administrators should follow the specified time and instructions that are given in the Test
Administrator’s Manual. Do not give Test Administrators a schedule that has times or
instructions that are different from the times or instructions in the Test Administrator’s Manual.
17. The Test Administrator’s Manual and answer documents are color coordinated to match the
specific color of the corresponding level of the ASA test booklets.
18. The Test Administrator’s Manual is organized with Preliminary Directions first, then Specific
Directions for Administering, including directions for completing demographic information,
and finally, Test Administration Directions for the ASA.
19. Directions are included in the Test Administrator’s Manual which states “if you have any
trouble reading a question, raise your hand and I will help you.” The Test Administrator may
read the test question word-for-word to the student. No explanation of the test question or
further help may be given. There is no set amount of questions that may be read. You must
use your professional judgment.
SC, BC, TA

20. Test Administrators cannot write the beginning and ending times on the board.
21. If students finish early, students cannot read a book or work on anything else.
22. School personnel involved in administration of state testing may not use digital devices
(including but not limited to cell phones, MP3 players, cameras, or other telecommunication
devices capable of capturing or relaying information) during test administration. Violation(s)
may result in disciplinary action/certification revocation. Additional disciplinary action may
be taken by the local education agency (LEA).
23. The possession of a digital device (including but not limited to cell phones, MP3 players,
cameras, or other telecommunication devices capable of capturing or relaying information) is
strictly prohibited during the administration of a secure test. If a student is observed in
possession of a digital device during the administration of a secure test, the device will be
confiscated. If a student is observed using a digital device during the administration of a secure
test, testing for the student will cease, the device will be confiscated and is subject to search,
the student will be dismissed from testing, and the student’s test will be invalidated.
24. Copy machines and printers that have scanning or copying capabilities must be disabled or
removed from all rooms being used for a testing session.
25. For students who take the braille format or large-print format of the ASA and/or qualify
