Hi Pam- We would give our students their individual scores to reflect not on the overall score but on the specific areas (i.e. what are areas are strengths?).  We then asked them to use that information to plan ways to study for the test (i.e. what areas do they need to focus on more). Our students took the test before going out to level 2 FW so they expected lower scores but it still gave them a good feel for what material they knew better than others.

Hi everyone,

Hope all is as well as it can be in these uncertain times!

I was hoping to get input on the OTKE exam - specifically,- do you share student's individual scores with them and if so, how do you counsel them?  Are there any norms or published indicators to go along with the % of correct items?

Thanks!
Pam
