TestNav
Overview
Secure, scalable, and reliable, TestNav provides engaging and interactive testing to students who learn and play in a digital environment. Media-rich, technology-enhanced items reflect the learning environment in today’s dynamic classrooms and more accurately assess student comprehension and ability.
Pearson designed TestNav with these fundamental features:
- Portable — Runs on a wide range of mobile devices, including iPads and other tablets.
- Interoperable — Complies with the industry-standard, Question and Test Interoperability (QTI) specification, to deliver any test content authored in accordance with QTI—regardless of content provider.
- Scalable — Provides a high level of scalability for accelerated delivery.
- Reliable — Ensures reliable test session data transfer, even in the event of a network slowdown or interruption. In these instances, TestNav saves student responses to an encrypted backup file, uploads them to Pearson servers when the connection is re-established, and allows students to resume testing where they left off.
