usability
On NWEA Growth, students are allowed to click each answer choice and then click the arrow when they're ready to move on. On MAP Reading Fluency, once they click an answer, it moves them on. This is a hard adjustment for young learners (k-1) especially since we teach them to click on every answer to hear the choices on growth.

Is it possible to see all three benchmarks in 1 report for a student instead of toggling between each testing session?

story format the same for student & teacher
To make it easier to see if students are skipping lines and are having tracking issues, could the teacher screen that shows the miscues be in the same format as the students screen?

Highlighter tool
1st graders are having difficulty tracking long passages on the computer. The Missouri State MAP testing allows students to use different tools when reading. One of the tools is a highlighter tape line. I would recommend this tool.

interpretive tables
Interpretive tables should be included on student reports so that they can be easily interpreted by teachers without having to look back and forth.

Different font for stories
For lower elementary the capital I and lowercase l look the same. Can you use a different font, so we know that the issue is with phonics/phonemic awareness.

Change the program
I have watched several students make mistakes because the program doesn't pause and let students see their final response. There should be an enter button to make sure their answer is the one they want. It also just scrolls over answer choices too easily and students accidentally change their answers because the answer isn't "locked".

Prompt for Students to Read
Can there be a clear prompt for students before they have to read so they know to read aloud?

Immediate feedback for ORF
I have two students who take their Oral Reading Fluency before 8:00. Their scores come up immediately. My next group takes their oral reading fluency after 8:00. Their scores do not come up immediately. Giving students immediate feedback is IMPERATIVE.

Reading fluency microphone fix on ipad
If you are using the Reading fluency map on the ipad, make sure your students press "Allow" when the app asks to use the microphone. If they press deny, the proctor will need to go into settings, find the Reading Fluency app settings, and toggle the microphone switch to ON. I would add this to the knowledge base.

Teacher Dashboard Support
It would be helpful on the teacher dashboard to have teachers made aware of issues with the Oral Reading. Maybe have a flag so the teacher knows they need to tell the student to speak louder, softer, or to make sure they're reading so they don't receive a no score. It is frustrating to go through the process and have to wait until the next day to find out the student needs to be tested again.

Reading Fluency ability to work with mic
In the Reading fluency, ew have several devices in which the app gets stuck and something we have never been able to manage is for the device to hear the students saying "i am ready" at the beginning no matter how loud they speak. We usually endup unplugging the headphone and speaking directly into the iPad's mic.
Does anybody else have these repeated issues?2 votes -

iPads for Administration Use
Our teachers use iPads for administering assessments in classrooms. Currently, MAP Reading Fluency cannot be administered on iPads and reports cannot be accessed/viewed on iPads. This limits how and where we can administer assessments and share/talk about our data.

EASE of USE Fluency scores
Can you make it so that the top categories stay in place like you can freeze in place as you scroll down the page for each student.
Also and or, you may just include this information that appears here for each student and have it appear on the page that opens for them.
It is very frustrating scrolling up and down to figure out what the category is when you have to scroll back to the bottom.

Manual Scoring of Passages
When the scoring engine doesn't score an oral reading fluency passage, I have to go back and hand score a LARGE number of tests. This is not time productive. It would be helpful if we could instead enter these manually to get the graphs and comparison data until students are better able to fluently read. (This would require a library of all the passages and comprehension questions.)

Print outs of Oral Reading Fluency Stories
It would be helpful to have a resources library of progress monitor probes and comprehension questions. I have several students that do not do well with the online testing that I complete running records on instead.
