ISTEP+ Testing Resumes After Statewide Glitch

ISTEP+ testing should resume today after a computer glitch put a stop to the online testing for students statewide.

Daniel Altman with the Department of Education say the problems on Monday stemmed from a technical error in the servers of CTB/McGraw-Hill, the company that administers the test.

The testing period for students taking the test online will be extended by three days. The online testing system has experienced computer problems the last several years.

The company is currently under a four-year, $95 million contract with the Indiana Department of Education.
