A combined jazzy stick carrying case assembly includes a plurality of top pockets located about a top section of a carrying case and situated exterior of an outermost surface of the carrying case. Accordingly, the effect of cooling the liquid crystal panel, the transparent member, and a display panel case is enhanced to extend the lifetime of the device and to reduce noise. To normalize the local standardized test results based on the differences in tests in different localities, an additional factor is employed as a modifier of the NCLB test results resulting in a normalized comparison.
