ACT® Test Prep TestBank 36!

ACT® Test Prep is designed to support users as they prepare for the ACT exam. Without registering for a test, users are able to access sample test items for the English, Math, Reading, and Science portions of the exam. When users enter a practice session, they are provided with multiple-choice test items that are samples of the questions they will be asked when taking the ACT. When users select their answer, they are told if they are or are not correct and are provided an explanation. After completing a practice test, users are provided a final score report.

Instructional Ideas

1. As part of preparation for the ACT, teachers can allot class time for students to practice answering different sample test items, either individually or with a partner. As they complete the test items, students can manually track the amount of questions they answer correctly and incorrectly. If this activity is done over a period of time (e.g., 30 minutes, three times a week for a month), tracking can be analyzed to see if growth has occurred.
2. As part of a daily bell-ringer, teachers can project a question from this app for their class to complete. After all students have answered the question or time has run out, teachers can lead a class discussion explaining what the correct answer is and why that answer is correct.
3. Teachers can create a class competition using this app. To do so, students need to be divided into groups of two to five members and should elect a spokesperson. Next, teachers can project a question from this app onto a screen, and groups can race to see who can answer the question first. Once the group has the correct answer, the spokesperson has to stand. The first standing spokesperson then has the opportunity to share the group’s answer in order to earn a prize, points, or other reward.
