An exciting new diagnostic testing tool to help teachers identify individual student needs

Developed for the Cambridge Edjin platform, the diagnostics tool provides easy-to-assign, ready-made tests with adaptive functionality and auto-marking, followed up by intuitive reporting that displays evidence about student achievement at different periods in time and attainment in relation to syllabus outcomes.

Your diagnostic test bank includes a ready-made pre-test and post-test for each chapter in Cambridge Science for the NSW Syllabus Stages 4&5.
Each test is made up of a set of 27 multiple-choice questions – 9 at Level 1 (knowing), 9 at Level 2 (applying), and 9 at Level 3 (reasoning).
Choose to assign the tests to your whole cohort or choose a selection of individual students.
Students start with a medium question. If they answer correctly, they move to the hard question. If they answer incorrectly, they move to the easy question.
All students then go back to a medium question and the pattern continues until they have answered 18 questions.
This adaptive functionality means that higher ability students will be challenged and prevents demotivation of lower ability students.
Results are presented to the teacher in a way that allows you to customise your teaching to bring all students up to the achievement standards.
Post-tests demonstrate growth over time and student attainment in relation to syllabus content.

Teachers have access to 3 types of reports using the data gathered in the diagnostic tests showing:

Your students will complete a seamless sequence of 18 multiple-choice questions, unaware that the questions are adapting specifically to meet their needs.
As a result, your students won’t be demotivated by difficult questions as part of the diagnostic process.
The post-test give students opportunities to apply the skills they have learnt and to see the progress they have made over the course of a topic.
