STORY SUMMARY »
A testing firm picked by the state Department of Education last year to replace a mistake-prone company will review all the tests it scored for Hawaii this year after finding possible scoring errors in at least 1,682 test booklets.
The Washington, D.C.-based American Institutes for Research says a scanning error by one of its contractors recorded answers in blank reading and math tests for last spring's Hawaii State Assessment.
