Created by educators for educators, MAP assessments provide detailed, actionable data about where each child is on their unique learning path. Because student engagement is essential to any testing experience, NWEA works with educators to create test items that interest children and help to capture detail about what they know and what they’re ready to learn. It’s information teachers can use in the classroom to help every child, every day.

sections according to subject areas: Math, Reading,

Language Usage, and Science.

Each subject area lists all of the students scores from the first test to the most recent term

that was selected.

The student’s score is the bold number in the middle, the

numbers to the left and the right are the low and high end

of the RIT Range.

Student growth is also shown. This is done in

year increments.
