[CASL-L] SBAC question

[Miller, Sarah]

I use the practice tests to help students get more familiar with all the tools.

Subject: [CASL-L] SBAC question

 In our school, SBAC scores are lower than we'd like, and I want to do what I can to help.
Teachers report that students are unfamiliar with the tools to maneuver within the online test.  They will start doing more practice tests which may help.

But as I teach computer skills anyway, I wonder if there are websites that employ similar tools.  For example,  the split screen, where you have to scroll on one side to read the text, and on the other to read the questions. There are arrows that collapse one side in favor of the other. This confuses our young (grades 3 and 4) and less computer savvy students.  I thought of Google Maps, where you collapse the mini search screen in order to see the full page map.
Have any of you thought about this, or have any suggestions? Especially a split screen with separate scroll bars?

Thank you
