No. Territorium offers an assessment similar to the Proficiency Profile Optional Essay, the HEIghten Written Communications assessment.
For 15 minutes more in testing time, HEIghten Written Communications provides a powerful combination of human and automated scoring approaches to score essays. This allows focused evaluation of writing skills such as writing skills in argumentation building up, critical use of resources, and other higher order aspects of writing. By providing a score that is a combination of performance on both the selected-response questions and on the direct writing measure, a more holistic view of a learners’ overall writing proficiency with insights about the students’ knowledge or writing and whether they can put that knowledge into practice is provided.
Territorium will work with existing ETS Proficiency Profile Optional Essay customers to smoothly transition to the HEIghten Written Communications assessment.
Almost 400 institutions nationwide rely on the Proficiency Profile to provide the valid, reliable data they need for a variety of planning, performance measurement and improvement programs including accreditation and accountability, academic program evaluation and improvement, and benchmarking.
