TNReady.....isn't ready
A technology failure from a state vendor has halted standardized testing across Tennessee on the day that TNReady, the state's new online exam program, was set to be administered on a widespread basis. TNReady is Tennessee's new and improved TCAP test for English language arts and math, and it replaces the old TCAP tests for those subjects. The testing platform "experienced major outages across the state" on Monday because of network issues with Measurement Inc..The firm is contracted to administer the standardized exams, according to a memo from Education Commissioner Candice McQueen. As a result, school districts will now take the paper version for Part I and Part II of TNReady. The state Department of Education will delay and extend the testing period for part of the exam.
