CANCELLED W-APT Training

 W-APT™ is the WIDA™ Placement Test for ELL students. The W-APT is a local tool for:

1. Placing new ELL students in the appropriate tier (within a grade cluster) of the ACCESS for ELLs™ test.
2. Providing a screener for determining appropriate placement of new students for ELL services. ( Schools must screen potential ELLs within 30 days of enrollment.)
3. Determining the ELP level for WKCE decision making.

In this overview, participants will receive a materials and instructions for downloadeding the W-APT testing documents.. We will review the W-APT™ testing manual and practice administering and grading student exams at various grade levels. Unlike the ACCESS for ELL™ exam, test administrators are not required to pass the online quizzes in order to administer the W-APT™ placement test. However, since this test is scored in its entirety by the test administrator, it is anticipated that individuals administering the exam be knowledgeable with the scoring criteria. Every district should have at least one W-APT trained test administrator.
