Assessment Portal receives upgrades, webinars ongoing

There are several new features in the South Dakota Assessment Portal, which replaced Achievement Series nearly a year ago. Webinars from earlier this fall have been posted online.

SDAP now contains pre-made forms for all teachers to access. Or teachers can find help guides online for step-by-step instructions on how to create a test from scratch. Teachers can choose to create tests using either the South Dakota State Standards or the Common Core Standards. All math and English language arts questions for grades 3-8 and 11 in SDAP have been aligned to the Common Core Standards.

Developed last year, the South Dakota Assessment Portal is an online resource to help educators create, deliver, and track formative and summative assessments for their students. It is available at no cost to school districts across the state.
