Praxis I Preparation

Not currently available as of 11/27/2007

Students interested in preparing for the Praxis I Exam have access to preparation materials and the Learning Plus program during regular Learning Center office hours.  It is recommended that students visit the Learning Center to practice with exam preparation materials at least one month before taking the Praxis I exam.  How long Praxis I preparation can take is based on individual performance. However, full preparation can take anywhere from 20-40 computer hours in the Learning Center.

Learning Plus is a computerized interactive tutorial that is designed to help you  better prepare for your Praxis I Exam.  It is broken down into 5 sections.

1) The first section will teach you about the program.

2) The second is a series of Skills Profile Tests in each of the 3 areas, math, writing (including an essay) and reading. These tests will score you, tell you how long you took to take them, but most importantly, they will give you a diagnostic telling you specifically what you need to focus on while studying.

3) The next section is the actual tutorial based on your specific diagnostic.

4) Section four is preparing for tests.

5) Section five is another set of tests, at which point between the Skills Profiles and the Tutorial should show any necessary improvement.

Students have reported great success do to this program, saying that it helped them tremendously!
During the first visit, students are required to fill out a student information sheet and then sign into the appointment log.  This information sheet will keep track of the students progress through the preparation materials.  On subsequent visits to the Learning Center, students will only have to sign into the appointment and taking the test and signing up is free.
