Math 12 Test Banks:
Topics covered are Transformations, Logarithms, Sequences and Series,
Coordinate Trigonometry, Trigonometric Identities, Conic Sections,
Combinatorics, Probability, and Statistics. There are also several term
tests on the cd which are broken into Term 1 which covers transformations,
logs, sequences and series and trig 1. Term 2 covers trig 2 (identities),
conics, combinatorics, probability and statistics. Each topic will have at
least 5 different tests with 2 versions of each (i.e. morning and
afternoon.)
The multiple choice questions are the same on each version but have been
scrambled. The written response questions are parallel but different. Most
tests have a non calculator multiple choice section, a calculator multiple
choice section and a written response portion. The tests follow a format
similar to the BC provincial exam for Principles of Math 12. Each test has
an answer key for the multiple choice section.
The tests were developed in LXR*TEST 5.1 format. Many school districts have
LXR*TEST software. If your district is running LXR*TEST 6.0 or 6.1 it is
very easy to convert these files to version 6. First time you try to load
them the program will prompt you to convert to 6 , say yes and it will
convert them to 6 file structure. Using LXR*TEST you can take questions
from any of the data banks and make your own customized tests. It is far
more flexible than any other commercially available software. It is very
easy to take questions, clone them and modify them for your needs. If you
need in-service on LXR*TEST it is available (email Chris Tamm at
C_and_C_Consulting@shaw.ca for details).
