This year the 6th and 7th grade students are going to take the reading portion of the FCAT online. Last year our 6th grade students took it and we found that the format of computer based testing is very different that the traditional pen and paper test. ...in 2015/2016 the FCAT will be replaced by the PARCC assessment, which is almost all computer based reading. Studies have shown than our eyes track the words differently when we are reading online; in an F shaped pattern. Students Must Learn and Practice on Computers...What can I do? If students are not taught and practice how to read on a computer they will miss much of the text and not be able to answer the questions correctly.
