Texas Success Initiative Assessment Review
JD’s Regents Preparation has produced exam review material since 2003 and has recently created a new study guide for the Texas Success Initiative Assessment.
JD’s TSIA Exam Review Manual boasts over 550 practice exam questions. Like all JD’s Prep’s products, the questions are organized by topic, and practice exams are located in the back of the book. This review manual is great as a standalone review for the TSIA exam or it can be used as a supplement in addition to the official Accuplacer® review material. The added value is not only the topically organized questions, but the video assistance given to every question. The book can also be used throughout the school year as the instructor teaches new material.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, EVERY QUESTION IS LINKED TO A SOLUTION VIDEO!
The QR Code can be read by any I-Pad, Cell Phone, Google Chrome book, or virtually any technology that has a camera. This is ideal for independent study.
All videos have CLOSED CAPTION option in a choices of languages.
This book allows students to do the following: target topics that they are having difficulties with, study on their own, and verify process and procedure via video instruction. After completing the initial diagnostic test, a student may choose the category needing additional practice on by marking the missed questions and aligning them with the categories and subtopics throughout the book.
The mathematics component of TSIA2 consists of two tests: The College Readiness Classification (CRC) Test and the Diagnostic Test. The College Readiness Classification (CRC) Test consists of 20 multiple choice questions in the following 4 content areas: Quantitative Reasoning (approx. 6 questions), Algebraic Reasoning (approx. 7 questions), Geometric and Spatial Reasoning (approx. 3 questions) and Probabilistic and Statistical Reasoning (approx. 4 questions). When the students’ CRC test score does not meet the 950 standard, additional questions, 48 total questions (12 from each category) are given to identify specific strengths and weaknesses in mathematical skills to guide placement and instruction.
The content areas include:
Geometric and Spatial Reasoning - geometric concepts such as area, perimeter, and triangle properties
Quantitative Reasoning - Calculating ratios, proportions, percents, identifying, manipulating, and interpreting linear equations and expressions.
Algebraic Reasoning - linear equations, inequalities, and functions.
Probabilistic and Statistical Reasoning - probability and data analysis
