Please ensure devices are updated to the latest version before testing to avoid issues encountered that were fixed by Apple in iPadOS version 13.2.2+. Also, Apple recently introduced a new feature called Voice Control that must be disabled before testing. This feature is turned off by default. Guidance on how to disable this feature, if enabled, is available in the Configurations for iOS Devices guide under Technical Resources for Technology Coordinators. Added January 9, 2020 ELPA21 Summative Paper and Braille Materials to Arrive in Districts by January 21, 2020 Initial orders consisting of paper, large print, and braille materials for the ELPA21 Summative will arrive in districts by January 21, 2020 . The quantity of paper and braille materials your district will receive is automatically calculated based upon the number of students uploaded in TIDE by November 12, 2019 . An additional order window will open January 22, 2020 where the Help Desk can intake orders for students enrolled in your district after November 12, 2019 .

The updated Writing domain results will still provide you with the same data and information as in previous years. If materials do not arrive by these dates, please contact the Iowa ELPA21 Help Desk .

Please upload all relevant student information and test settings to TIDE by November 12, 2019 to ensure delivery to districts prior to the start of the Summative test window.
