[info-tech] Skills Iowa Lightspeed
Has anyone had trouble with the October assessment for Skills Iowa. I've run checks on teachers to see blocked content, but there were no clues. I plan on working one on one and watch real time traffic in order to see anything.(Config/active stats). I've even turned off SSL checking to stop interference with https. They said it work fine last month... Murray Gafkjen Network Admin Clay Central Everly School District 1-712-834-2227

We had seen some ip addresses being blocked, but once we got that allowed everything seemed to be fine. At least I havent heard otherwise. Jeremy Sent from my Windows Mobile® phone.

re: [info-tech] Skills Iowa Lightspeed
I had one student not able to take the OCT. reading test. Blockers were off-it is still a mystery. Ugh. We have had numerous issues. One we have seen in the classroom is the student answers change. They put in one answer, and it changes their answer to a wrong answer. I was skeptical, but the math teacher also noticed this. We had students write down their answers on paper as well as answer on computer to be sure. I have let Skills IA know this. Keith would know more about the issues in elem. level...

Re: [info-tech] Skills Iowa Lightspeed
We have had nothing but trouble with Skills IOwa this year as well. Some students can get in others, no. Some students have been assigned to the wrong districts and I can't change that without calls to skills Iowa. Students have had answers disappear. It has been quite frustrating. Karl H.

Re: [info-tech] Skills Iowa Lightspeed
We have had some trouble with it also and their support has not been very helpful. I thought it may be a Lightspeed thing also but without changing anything, the problem went away the next day.
