TMSDS
The Texas Math and Science Diagnostic System (TMSDS) is a web-based
diagnostic assessment tool provided free to all Texas public and charter
schools. TMSDS allows teachers to pinpoint student strengths and
weaknesses and then tailor instruction accordingly. TMSDS contains
mathematics and science content covering grades 3-8, Algebra I, Algebra
II, Geometry, Integrated Physics and Chemistry (IPC), Biology, Chemistry
and Physics TEKS. This content takes several forms, including an item
bank that educators may use to create their own assessments, quizzes or
homework, and diagnostic tests that assess critical skills at each grade
level. TMSDS is a diagnostic and teaching tool, not a high stakes
testing preparatory tool. The MSTAR Universal Screener is also found on
the TMSDS platform. TMSDS can be accessed at www.TMSDS.org. You may also
