Intended Audience

This 3 hour face-to-face workshop provides a 2019 update for NAPLAN Coordinators in schools that conducted the NAPLAN Online Tests in May 2018.

It is highly recommended that two participants from each school be trained, to provide support for each other up to and during:

• the national Coordinated Practice Test on 28 March and
• the NAPLAN Online 2019 test window from 14 - 24 May 2019

Focus

Participants will gain:

• refresher training in all NAPLAN Coordinator functions in the 2019 version of the NAPLAN online assessment platform, in the context of the authorised national test protocols
• insights and strategies for in-school training of teachers to be Test Administrators using the 2019 online assessment platform, supported by nationally developed training materials

Details

Participation in this workshop will concentrate on differences between using the 2018 and 2019 versions of the assessment platform and will emphasise processes to ensure compliance with the national protocols for national online assessment. Some school NAPLAN Coordinators from 2018 will be involved in planning and facilitating the workshops, to ensure fresh eyes and insights into meeting the requirements.
