Practicality refers to how feasible a particular assessment or test is to administer. To consider whether an assessment is practical, consider questions like:
- What funds and resources are available for giving and scoring the test?
- How much time is there to give the test? How much time to score it?
- Who is available to rate the assessment? How long will it take to score?
