Services for THEA Preparation and Assessment Review |
To help students prepare for Assessment testing, the Learning Labs we...
- Provide copies, for use in the labs, of The Official THEA Test Study Guide which contains skills review, sample exercises, practice tests, and tips on test-taking strategies
- Provide individualized tutoring on a drop-in basis for this THEA Test Study Guide and for the THEA and the Texas Success Initiative’s COMPASS testing
- Refer students to software packages, such as Skills Tutor, which target topics covered on the THEA and COMPASS tests
- Offer links and handouts with tips for taking different sections of the THEA test
- Inform students of the web sites which provide practice tests for the THEA, the COMPASS and the ACC Assessments
Students who visit the Learning Labs for Assessment Preparation need to...
- Invest extra time to acquire the skills they need to be successful with the THEA test, the COMPASS test, or other ACC assessment tests.
- Come prepared with specific questions so that tutors are able to help target particular skills students may need to review and to help students determine where to focus study efforts.
- Know that tutoring labs are available at every campus and are open when ACC academic classes are in session; students can go to any learning lab to prepare for assessment testing.
- Understand that tutors are not teachers; learning lab tutors can work with a student on specific questions, as a complement to the student’s own efforts.
- Be aware that assessment preparation resources are also available through http://www.austincc.edu/support/assessment/
- Compass Test Preparation Assistance at the Cypress Creek Learning Lab Flyer.
