The ordering process of large-print materials will be closely monitored to ensure that districts are ordering only for students who meet the eligibility criteria. In most cases, large-print test materials should be indicated only for a student with an impairment in vision.
Student responses on large-print tests must be entered into the Data Entry Interface (DEI). If a student's responses are not entered into DEI, the student's test cannot be scored.
Specific information about large-print test materials, including the policy for students who require test materials in a font size larger than the state-supplied large-print test materials, is found in the applicable STAAR Paper Test Administration Information or TELPAS Paper and Holistic Test Administration Information.
Refer to the Font and Point Sizes Matrices for point sizes and fonts used on all state assessments.
Technology-based accommodations for online test takers enable most students to test online. However, in rare instances, a student may be administered a paper test. For a student eligible for a special paper administration, "Paper" must be indicated in the Test Mode field and a specific paper format must be selected from the Paper Test Format field in TIDE.
For situations when a student experiences an unexpected or emergency situation (e.g., broken arm, broken glasses) immediately before the assessment, refer to the Accommodations in Unexpected or Emergency Situations policy.
