Checking Your Devices
The best way to prevent test day problems is to open Bluebook on one of the devices you deployed to and make sure it displays the login screen.
Tips:
- Be sure to check each device type you deployed to.
- Remember that firewalls can prevent updates.
Avoid Test Day Delays
Bluebook auto-updates when students open it. Too many simultaneous updates could overwhelm your network and delay testing. Ask students to open Bluebook on their own before test day or any group readiness activities. They don’t need to sign in.
