Indiana Score-Setting Studies
Technology and Engineering Education (5053)
ETS is replacing the existing test #5051 Technology Education with an updated test #5053 Technology and Engineering Education. This new test will be available for licensure in Technology Education by applicants and prospective educators effective September 1, 2024. During a one-year transition period from September 1, 2024, until August 31, 2025, applicants for licensure may take and pass either test #5051 or test #5053. On September 1, 2025, test #5053 will become the sole required test for Technology Education licensure. In February 2024 a multistate standard-setting study was conducted by 13 panelists from 10 ETS client states, including one panelist from Indiana. The panel’s resulting passing score recommendation is 65 out of a possible 110 raw-score points. The scale score associated with a raw score of 65 is 157 on a 100-200 scale. A one-page summary of test changes is provided.
