Two Demonstration Modules or "Demos" allow you to experience the approach to
teaching and the quality of the instruction available through the MCAS-Pass
Learning Lab. One Demo runs in Test Simulation Mode; this is the mode the
MCAS-Pass Learning Lab uses for its assessment test modules. The other Demo runs
in Tutorial & Review Mode, the mode used to when a student reviews his or her
test performance or engages a tutorial module. Each Demo version provides the
full functionality of the MCAS-Pass Learning Lab product (with the exception
that the User Guide is disabled).
Although the Demos are functionally identical to the actual MCAS-Pass Learning Lab
product, there are some differences:
|
 |
The questions presented by the Demos are taken directly from past 10th Grade
MCAS Mathematics tests. In contrast, all MCAS-Pass Learning Lab modules feature
questions that are original creations derived through scientific analyses of
past MCAS test results. Our module questions certainly bear similarities with
past MCAS test questions, but they are not are not taken from past MCAS tests.
|
|
Both Demo versions feature five questions. However, MCAS-Pass Learning Lab
test modules, which are designed to assess a student’s knowledge level, include
40 questions. These 40 modules run in Test Simulation Mode during the assessment
phase and, once the test is completed, they revert to Test & Review to allow
the student to review his or her performance and see explanations of how to
solve the problem. MCAS-Pass Learning Lab tutorial modules include 15 questions
and run in Test & Review Mode only.
|
|
Both Demo versions present the same set of five questions, yet each test or
tutorial module offered by the MCAS-Pass Learning Lab features content that
is distinct from that found in all other modules.
|
To use either Demo, your computer must be equipped with either the
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6 or Netscape Navigator version 7 (or
higher) browser and be set to display video at 800 x 600 resolution (or
