The modules are designed to cover specific subject areas and are intended to allow for a broader coverage of content than the regular IEOC assessments. The modules consist of approximately 16 multiple-choice items and are designed to be administered in less than a single class period. The test items, which are aligned to the Common Core State Standards, reflect educator input and a rigorous quality-control process to ensure appropriateness, content accuracy, and clarity.
