Also, the brown information sheets and the greens scantrons are no longer being used. Please shred any remaining ones. Please contact <a href="mailto:mdtp@ucsd.edu">mdtp@ucsd.edu</a> if you have special requests for paper versions. You can register to be a paper testing site through the normal order form.

The program develops, distributes, scores, and reports the results of tests that measure student readiness for mathematics courses ranging from pre-algebra to calculus.</p> <p>MDTP grade-level and course-level diagnostic assessments are designed to measure students' mathematical preparation in foundational topics of the course students are entering, and/or to inform students' preparation for the mathematical content in the course they are promoting to. The diagnostic results should be used formatively to understand students' strengths and areas of unfinished learning, inform instruction and potential interventions, evaluate course readiness, measure program growth, and identify appropriate professional learning. MDTP tests can be administered any time throughout the school year and are available in both paper form and on the MDTP Online Testing platform.</p> <p>Only the use of the MDTP 9th Grade Assessment Platform has been suspended during school closures, all other tests are available. </p> <p> </p> <h4>MDTP Remote Testing Policy and Use Agreement:</h4> <p><a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1a85f579-4416-4f25-abfe-67d79127ce95" href="https://tutoring.ucdavis.edu/sites/g/files/dgvnsk1981/files/inline-files/MDTP%20Remote%20Testing%20Policy%20and%20Use%20Agreement%20%28Spring%202020%29%20%281%29.pdf">MDTP%20Remote%20Testing%20Policy%20and%20Use%20Agreement%20%28Spring%202020%29%20%281%29.pdf</a></p></div> </section> </div> </div> </aside> </div> <div class="l-container"> <section class=" l-basic--3col "> <aside class="l-sidebar-first"> <div class="region region-sidebar-first"> <div id="block-fbmdtpordering" class="block block-block-content block-block-content58c17e9e-c5a7-4190-95ee-e16a881668d5 panel o-box"> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><h3 class="heading--auxiliary">Ordering Testing Materials</h3> <p>Test booklets and materials can be ordered by visiting the <a href="https://sites.google.com/cloud.ucsd.edu/accessingmdtptests/assessing-mdtp-tests">MDTP central ordering site</a>.

Each item provides a downloadable PDF file that contains the item for reproduction and distribution to your students, an Essential Statement containing additional information about the question prompts and ideas for classroom extensions of the question, the MDTP generalized scoring rubric applicable to all MDTP written response questions; and the specialized scoring rubric created specifically for that particular item</p> <h4>How long does it take to process an order for online testing access or paper testing?</h4> <p>Per the conditions of the CSU/UC MDTP agreement, we do our best to process all orders usually within two days of receipt of requests. For online testing, educators generally receive full access within 48 hours after the office receives the online request. For paper testing we can either mail the testing materials to you or you can pick them up in our office on the UC Davis Campus. *Note: all rosters now need to be downloaded through the online platform and then scanned back into the site, the green scantrons and brown classroom sheets are no longer used. If you are unable to print rosters at your respective site, the UCD office can assist with that. Please take into consideration weekends and holidays when ordering materials to be shipped out and returned to your respective sites.</p> <h4>Do you offer testing materials for non-English speakers?</h4> <p>Yes! We offer several tests in Spanish: pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and second-year algebra readiness. Spanish versions are available online and in paper tests.</p> <h4>How long does it take to receive the test results?</h4> <p>Online testing results are immediate. For paper testing, per the conditions of the CSU/UC MDTP agreement, our office strives to have test results available within two days of receipt of uploaded answer sheets. Also please factor in weekends and holidays when anticipating turn-around times.</p> <h4>Does my county work with the UC Davis MDTP site?</h4> <p>The UC Davis site works with schools in the following counties:</p> <div role="region" aria-label="Scrollable Table" tabindex="0" class="responsive-table"><table> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p> </p> </td> <td> <p>Alpine, Amador, Butte, Calaveras, Colusa, Del Norte, El Dorado, Glenn, Humboldt, Lake, Lassen, Mendocino, Modoc, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Shasta, Sierra, Siskiyou, Solano, Sutter, Tehama, Trinity, Yolo, Yuba</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <p>If you do not see your school's county on this list, please visit <a href="http://mdtp.ucsd.edu/k12-users/regional-sites.html">http://mdtp.ucsd.edu/k12-users/regional-sites.html</a>.</p> <h4>Is the MDTP test helpful with changes to the Common Core State Standards in Mathematics?</h4> <p>Yes! MDTP began developing readiness tests aligned to the new California Common Core Standards for Mathematics in 2013. MDTP has released Common Core aligned tests for students entering Grade 7 (7M40A15), Grade 8 (8M40A15), Algebra 1 or Integrated Math 1 (AMR45A19) Geometry (GR45A19) or Integrated Math 2 (ISR45A17), and Algebra 2(SR45A19 or Integrated Math 3 (ITR45A17). Currently MDTP is in the third year of field-testing in the Assessment of Preparedness for 6th Grade Mathematics (6M35D19) and the first year of field-testing the Mathematics Analysis Readiness Test (MR45D19).

In particular, each K-12 student who takes an MDTP test should be provided with a copy of the student letter that indicates the student’s score and identifies those topics in which more work is needed. Students whose test results indicate readiness for a mathematics course should be encouraged to pursue their mathematics education. They should also be cautioned that success in a course requires good study habits and persistence. Students whose test results indicate inadequate preparation for a particular course should be advised to develop readiness for that course either by individual study or enrollment in a course that will prepare them for it. They should not be counseled out of mathematics.</p> <p><span><span><span>Since MDTP tests are designed to measure students’ grade-level preparedness for math expectations in the grade-level course they are entering or course-level readiness for the topics of course they are entering, MDTP does not provide scaling of scores. Raw scores and overall topic scores can be used for reporting to students and when used as one measure to inform enrollment course options. MDTP provides several guidelines for using diagnostic results to inform appropriate next-course options.</span></span></span></p> <p>The UC Davis site serves the following counties: Alpine, Amador, Butte, Calaveras, Colusa, Del Norte, El Dorado, Glenn, Humboldt, Lake, Lassen, Mendocino, Modoc, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Shasta, Sierra, Siskiyou, Solano, Sutter, Tehama, Trinity, Yolo, Yuba.
