Subject: more on practicing with CDs
I got two responses with people reiterating the importance of practicing
with CDs and pointing out problems with navigating a CD.
Whatever we think, I'm sure that there will be schools where teachers will
NOT prepare CDs for school testing if only because they don't have the
knowhow. In light of this fact, I've written Judy with the following
suggestions:
Some extra time be given to the students to compensate them for time needed
to "navigate".
That EACH paragraph be a separate track and EACH question be a separate
track. Instructions should also be on separate tracks. This means that exams
would range from 20-30 tracks. (CDs can theoretically hold 99 tracks). Of
course, the tracks would be in the order of the exam (obviously)
I also suggested that the ministry prepare a "table of contents" for each
module listing the tracks and their contents.
track 1 general instructions
track 2 Reading Passage Paragraph 1 (lines 1-10)]
etc.
I suggested that the table of contents either be included in the envelopes
with the disks - one per student - or be published in advance with all the
other LD instructions so that the school can run them off for the students
in advance. I think such a division of tracks and table of contents will
greatly help the students navigate the CD.
