Enhanced accommodation (EA) assessments have several tools and accommodations to help you while taking a Mastery Connect assessment. If your teacher has enabled dictionaries, you can learn the definition of a word using a dictionary tool. The text-based dictionary tool displays the definition using text. The picture dictionary tool displays the definition using images.
Note: The Student Assessment Experience is available in Spanish to translate the user interface elements such as interactions, buttons, and alerts. For translations to be active, your web browser must have Spanish designated as its primary language. Created content, such as standard details, assessment questions, and class names, are not translated as part of this feature.
