Like all testing rooms, the rooms in which you administer the digital test should be free from distractions, have adequate lighting and ventilation, and have restrooms nearby.
There should be a clock visible to students, and anything related to test content should be out of view.
Digital Requirements
Digital testing rooms should have one device available for each student, and one device designated for the proctor.
Students must sit in chairs with backs, and we strongly recommend using partitions between desks. This differs from paper testing requirements, which don't allow partitions.
Acceptable seating arrangements depend on whether you use partitions. One benefit of using partitions is that it allows students to sit face to face.
