ITS enables our clients to increase educator involvement in their assessment programs by allowing educators to write/review items from any computer with an Internet connection. The system is fully-configurable, maintains detailed version/review histories, and enforces review sequences to ensure items are error-free and of high quality.

In addition to storing item statistics, ITS enforces review sequences to ensure that item selections meet blueprint and psychometric specifications.

ITS integrates fully with our scoring system. Files automatically generated in one system are imported into the other without conversion. This capability minimizes human error and ensures data accuracy and integrity.

ITS is a single-source repository of content for different media. For printed test books, ITS generates client-approved bookmaps that are used by our production systems to import items directly from ITS and to sequence them in Quark. This process ensures that only the final, client-approved versions of the items are used on the forms.

ITS exports items in multiple formats for Web site use. This feature allows our clients to build user-friendly Web sites that can be accessed by students, parents, and educators to view released items, take practice tests, and learn more about the content targeted by the statewide assessments.

ITS directly exports items to our online testing system. Reviewers can see items exactly as the student will see them before exporting.

ITS exports files to our score reporting systems. This capability allows AIR to generate customized reports at the state, district, school, class, and student levels.
