[info-tech] Skills Iowa Lightspeed

2010-10-21 Thread Murray Gafkjen
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...

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.

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...

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.

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.
