Achievement Tests

Previous Achievement Tests and Answer Keys

                                                                                                                                                          

Released test items, which contained approximately 25% of the total number of test items from previously secured achievement tests, were mailed to school administrators each fall from 2004 to 2006 and have been made available to teachers in only print form because of copyright limitations.  Every second year, as of the fall of 2007, a complete test for all achievement test subjects and grades (except grades 6 and 9 Social Studies; grades 3, 6, and 9 Français/French Language Arts; and Grade 9 Knowledge and Employability courses) will be mailed to school administrators in conjunction with the Assessment Highlights report for that year.  In this way, teachers will receive complete forms of achievement tests.  The parts of those tests that are released in print form for which electronic copyright permission is received will subsequently be posted on the Alberta Education website.  A test blueprint and an answer key that includes the difficulty, reporting category, language function, and item description for each test item will also be included.  These materials, along with the Program of Studies and Subject Bulletin, provide information that can be used to inform instructional practice.
