Take home tests are completed outside the classroom and are meant to measure a student's understanding of concepts as well as their ability to organize information. When writing answers, students should connect ideas from multiple sources like textbooks, notes, movies, and guest speakers. Students should avoid plagiarism by using citations and limiting direct quotes. It is important to proofread answers carefully and make copies of completed tests before submitting in case the original is lost or damaged. Students are advised to start the test early and not wait until the last minute to avoid rushing.

The school district submitted a letter to the Michigan Department of Education in September 2010 committing to the Transformational school improvement model. This model requires replacing the principal, increasing learning assessments, extending the school day, and enhancing teacher and parent education. The school is required to submit a School Improvement Plan (SIP) to MDE by November 16th describing its improvement efforts. The SIP must include rational for the selected model, a plan to improve student, teacher, and parent learning across three pillars, and details on assessments, interventions, technology integration, and incentives to ensure all students succeed. If the plan is accepted, the school will receive state funds and monitoring to support reform plan implementation by the 2011-2012 school year.

Tips on taking a vocabulary test97
A vocabulary test evaluates a student's ability to define key terms from their coursework by using vocabulary lists to study words that are bolded in textbooks and paying attention to grammar and word traps involving similar meanings or spellings. If unsure of a word during the test, students should try using it in a sentence, picturing where it was discussed before, or making an educated guess using word elements and associations to known words.
Tips on taking a short anwer test97
Short answer questions evaluate student understanding of concepts and are more subjective than other question types. Students should carefully read the question, underline key words, and break down long directions. Look for contextual clues from other questions and the size of answer spaces. Do not overanalyze, and think about what type of information the teacher wants - a term, number, comparison, description, etc. If unsure between answers, write both down with an explanation.
Tips on taking a fill in the blank97
Fill in the blank questions test students' recall of details, terms, dates, and people from a lesson. To answer these questions successfully, students should understand what each question is asking, look for clues in grammar, tense, and other questions, and consider the type of information the teacher wants, like a term, person, number or description. Students should also watch the length of blanks for clues and over-answer if unsure by writing multiple answers with explanations.
Tips for multiple choice tests
This document provides tips for doing well on multiple choice tests. It recommends working quickly through the test, reading each question only once and underlining key details. Students should guess the answer before looking at options and use strategies like process of elimination to rule out incorrect answers. Clue words in the question and answer can indicate the right choice, as can grammatical agreement between question and answer. Guessing is an acceptable strategy if mistakes are not penalized.
Tips for matching tests
Matching tests are effective for testing terms and definitions, people and contributions, and dates and events. The document provides tips for taking matching tests, such as reading directions carefully, reading the column with the longest phrases first to save time, doing easy questions first to reduce choices, and writing explanations in the margin for unsure answers.
Test tips for a math test97
The document provides several tips for taking math tests. It recommends practicing a variety of problems at different difficulty levels to learn methods.

Students should also estimate answers and check over tests to catch careless mistakes.

Taking a essay test97
The document provides tips for taking essay tests:
1) Read directions carefully to understand what is being asked and how many essays to answer. Write down all requirements and include as many details as possible.

Short answer tests97
This document provides tips for preparing for short answer tests. It recommends using flashcards to study key terms, dates, and concepts. Students should anticipate questions that may appear on the test and focus their studying on what the teacher emphasizes in class. Even if an answer is unknown, students should show their work or thoughts for possible partial credit, and revisit unclear questions later in case other answers provide clues.
Relaxation techniques97
The document discusses three relaxation techniques that students can use to reduce stress and anxiety. The first technique involves tensing and relaxing different muscle groups one at a time from head to toe. The second recommends positive self-talk and deep breathing before a test while visualizing being calm and prepared. The third has the student tense all muscles at once from head to toe before slowly relaxing each part of the body.
Reading comprehension strategies97
The document provides strategies to improve reading comprehension. It discusses using strategies like underlining key words, numbering main ideas, and not adding personal interpretations when reading standardized tests. For textbooks, it recommends understanding the typical organization with titles, introductions, chapter headings, illustrations, summaries, and objectives. Creative mapping and RAP strategies help recognize how information is organized and linked. Staying focused, eliminating distractions, and taking breaks can also improve reading comprehension.
Open book test taking tips97
Open book tests require equal or greater preparation than closed book tests. Students should familiarize themselves with materials, write down formulas, and learn the main ideas and locations of information in advance. During the test, answer easy questions first, then reference notes and the book for harder questions, using quotes but also giving your own commentary and insights.
Monitoring yourself97
Monitoring yourself provides awareness of how you learn best, encourages responsibility over your learning, and helps develop plans to improve performance. Goal setting involves objectives students want to achieve through their actions, such as improving a grade. Keeping track of yourself and setting goals helps students take control of their learning.
Memory97
The document discusses various techniques for improving memory and recall of information. It explains that new information must be linked to existing knowledge in long-term memory in order to be remembered. Specific techniques mentioned include using mnemonics to remember lists through creative word associations, summarizing information to reduce it to main topics and ideas, reciting information aloud or on recordings, and using colors and visual aids to better organize and retain information.
