The latest reform in testing is the computerized test. Test questions and answer choices are presented on the 21 and students can answer with a tap of the keyboard or a click of the mouse. Before the actual test begins, there usually is an instruction showing how to use the computer to 22 the questions. Scores are displayed on the screen at the end of the test so that a student has immediate feedback 23 having to return several days later for results.

The computer 26 questions by level of difficulty and many other factors such as sex, race and age references, subject area the question is drawn from, and form of question, before presenting it on the screen. In this way, the questions are “adapted” to find the true skill 27 of the test taker.

No longer can you have a quick look at the 29 test, answer the easy questions first, and come back later to finish the difficult ones. Test items are presented one at a time, and you must choose an answer in order to move on to the next question. Once you have confirmed your answer, you cannot go back to 30 it if,later on, you realize that your answer was wrong.
