Benchmark Domain Scores on the Progress Monitoring Graph
It would be wonderful to have a student's benchmark domain scores also found on the Progress Monitoring chart. I know the scores can be found below the graph, but it would be helpful to have it on the graph as well, when looking at growth across the year.

School Proctor and MAP Reading Fluency
As a "School Proctor" I should be able to proctor MAP Reading Fluency to any students at my school just like I can proctor other MAP Growth Tests to any students. Since I am not a homeroom teacher, I am not able to proctor MAP Reading Fluency tests and yet I am one of our school's learning support specialists. Because I don't have a class assigned to me, I cannot administer the MAP Reading Fluency Test. I think NWEA should give the same proctoring permissions for ALL tests (Growth and Reading Fluency) with the "School Proctor" permission. This is very…

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.

Accuracy Report Needed
Is there a report that we can get that determines what we need to work on for accuracy? Listening to the audio and determining what to work on, is a lot to put on teachers' plate.

Gray out green button
On the benchmarks, please gray out the DONE button until a minute or so has passed. Students want to hit it and we end up redoing tests.

Fluency assessment problems
Hello,
I have been having problems with the Fluency program booting me out. So, I have to log in multiple times while they are taking the test. I then noticed that when this happened, my students had problems with their assessment. As long as I kept moving my mouse to keep the program on, my students would be able to take their assessment without issue.1 vote -

Flag Oral Reading Score when only one passage scored
There are occasions when a student receives a "score" from the system but when you click on the student you see that only one passage has been scored. The other passages have received "no score" for a regular reason.
It would be great if in these instances there was a flag or asterix against the student's score so it would be easier to identify if it is possible to hand score the student's other passages. We have found that if it is possible to hand score the other passages then it has a significant effect on the student's overall score.

Whole class data
For progress monitoring data it would be nice to have a way to view all the data a once instead of clicking through each student.

Reports
There are several things that would be useful in fluency reporting:
1. It would be wonderful to access a report that compares a student's fluency progress from testings across the year. I always have to sit and individually compare from fall to winter, winter to spring, spring to fall, etc.
2. It would be helpful to have a clear chart of how the fluency levels (below, approaching, meets, and exceeds) are reached for grade levels. It is hard to determine why a student is kicked back to phonemic awareness when others are not.
3. When clicking on an individual student…12 votes -
Adaptive for ALL grades
We would love to have the test be adaptive for ALL grades to determine foundational skill deficits. Students in the upper grades cannot adapt down to foundational skills unless explicitly assigned the foundational skills benchmark but when determining the needs of students we would like to be able to see them move in either direction, based on their needs.

sounds
On the part where the kids are listening for a sound and having to choose the letters or put letters in a box, it might be helpful if they have a mouth saying it so they can differentiate the sounds by using the mouth. This will help our speech kids.

Appropriate Font and Spacing for Grade Level
First grade NWEA Passages need to be more developmentally appropriate size and spacing. The passages 1st graders are looking at are the same size and spacing parameters as the ones that 3rd graders are reading. Can 1st grade assessments have larger font and wider spacing so students can track correctly?

Dyslexia Screener WITH Passages option
I wish there was a version of the Dyslexia Screener that also included Oral Reading Fluency. This would be especially helpful for grades 2 and 3. These students need a dyslexia screener (by law). Obviously, teachers can assign the Passages only, but this requires students to log in a second time. I would prefer students being able to go straight in to the second assessment.

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.

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.
