TEST ADMINISTRATION
PLEASE NOTE:
An examinee can use either his/her finger or the stylus to complete the test.
Administer test on a non-slippery surface, or use a non-slippery iPad cover to prevent unintended movement of the iPad during test administration.
Examiner Instructions to Examinee:
● When the first shape appears, point to the stimulus shape above the line and say (or demonstrate as appropriate, you can model if appropriate for examinee to understand that he/she needs to copy the displayed shapes in the space below):
“See this shape/letter/number (point). Please copy this same shape/letter/number using your finger (or stylus, if offered) as best you can below this line. (Now point to the blank space below the line to indicate where the shape should be copied.) Try to copy it exactly as you see it. This is not a timed test, so take your time. When you are finished, press the ‘next’ button (or say “I will press next”) and begin to copy the next shape/letter/number.”
● You can repeat the instructions for items “1” and “2” as needed.
● When the examinee has completed the last item, a page will appear with a checkmark stating “Test Complete!” You will also be asked to indicate whether the examinee used a stylus or his or her finger. A notes area will also be provided should you wish to write a note about the test administration. For example, you may wish to describe the examinee’s behavior during the test, or the position in which he or she took the test (i.e. on a table/ desk with the iPad directly in front of the examinee, rotated, on his/her lap, standing up, etc.).
● Press “Save Test.” Once you press “Save Test,” you will be prompted to enter your PIN in order to view the scored results. Providing your PIN provides an additional layer of security and confidentiality which ensures the test results are only accessible to you as the qualified examiner.
