Job Overview:
Join our ELA Team! We develop academic tests covering Reading and Literacy and are looking for people with ELA expertise to help develop these tests. We integrate cutting edge technology with content expertise to develop standardized assessments across the nation. This opening is for an Item Writer I.
The primary function of an Item Writer is to develop passages and/or create new test questions (items) for various client-specific projects. Once content is developed, the Item Writer will move it through all internal review processes, including group collaboration and feedback reviews, applying edits suggested during the group review meeting.
They also perform other entry-level content specific tasks such as final web approvals and post-committee review clean-up. The expectation for Item Writers is that they build a solid foundation in item writing, scoring, and reviewing, developing item writing technical expertise.
