Test materials are being carefully written by leading educational testing experts. Test materials are transferred, stored and transported conveniently on small plastic cards similar to phone cards or ATM cards. Student scores are then measured against global, national, state, regional or school system benchmarks. And, because test results are computer scored instantly, teachers save hours of valuable time which can be used to tutor those students who need it most. Progress can be continuously monitored and new objectives defined.
