improve visual impairment accommodations
We have a child whose results will have no validity because the test does not allow for sufficient visual impairment accommodations. The test needs to allow for:
-Dark mode (white background fatigues the student's eyes)
-Sans serif font (serif font is very difficult to read with the student's impairment)
-Ability to magnify beyond 200% (graphics and math formulas sometimes require greater magnification)
-Ability to magnify charts, graphs, and answer choices (these could not be enlarged/made readable)The unsecured browser over-rode all the native Visual Impairment settings on the student's laptop and would not allow them to be re-set. Either a…

Download of standards below student's grade
A downloadable report which lists each student who missed standards below their current grade. For example, a child is in 6th grade, but failed to answer standards from 3rd and 4th grade. The download would consist of the student's name and grade as well as those standards - could be listed by MN Standard's codes - they missed. IXL builds a plan for the student, but that plan is based on their RIT. I need to know the standards they missed which were much lower than the overall RIT.

MAP Growth Family Batch Reporting
In the new Batch Print for Family Report (BETA), there is no option to add page breaks when exporting a whole class into one large file. When we print, some data prints front and back incorrectly, messing up the way the pages print. Can that feature be added back (it was in the old family report batch print). Thank you!

Batch Print for Family Report BETA filename issue
The Batch Print for Family Report (BETA) at https://reports.mapnwea.org/profile/batch-report/family will ultimately result in a downloadable zipfile. The problem is that this zipfile has an incredibly long name: Family Report - Classes or Individual Students - <Teacher> 1ST GRADE 2025-2026 - All Students.zip
This is approaching 100 characters long, and then within that zipfile we have folders for <School>, then <Teacher>, then a pdf of <teacher>1STGRADE_2025-2026.pdf.Windows will fail to be able to open this file directly from the zipfile because of the length of the path, and requires users to either rename the zipfile or extract it, which…

Improve text-to-speech
The text to speech pronounces environment incorrectly, as it pronounces the second 'n'. Also, it pronounces 20,000 as "20, zero zero zero". You could make the program run a check for whether the text says 3 numbers after a comma, or if there's just a space and 2 other characters. (Idea submitted by a student.)

Enable TTS on Graphics and Images
Students who need TTS for all content should be able to use the embedded TTS feature within MAP - they should not have to learn to use a new tool like a screen reader just to access text in images and graphics. Screen readers will also read navigation buttons and other text on the screen that is not a part of the test item potentially creating confusion and adding cognitive load.
Please build images and graphics for test items that can be read aloud by the embedded TTS within MAP.

Ending the test is tricky.
At the end of the 2-5 elementary test, the students do not always click the final blue button. Then their data is lost in space and if it is not logged into later to click the final blue button, the data can disappear. The issue comes with using Chromebooks, and the screen does not display the final blue button and the student would have to scroll down to see it. This is often overlooked, especially in 2nd grade, because the year before they saw a cute puppy dog that said "great job". Can this button be removed and the "great…

Total testing time should be the same for all
My daughter (3rd grade) recently gave me feedback about why she doesn't look forward to these tests and I found it important to consider. When she sees her peers finishing the test before her she gets antsy to finish so she can read, draw, or do something else silently at her desk until all of her classmates are finished. The standardized way a test is administered is as important, if not more important, than the actual test questions and results. My daughter thought she was less knowledgeable and slower than the other students because she was taking longer to finish…

Co-teacher Able to View Primary Teachers Test Session
We have many classes with a primary teacher and a special education or english learner co-teacher. It would be great if both teachers could simultaneously monitor the same test session that the primary teacher has created without having to give one of the teachers district proctor access.
We currently roster so that both teachers have access to the class within NWEA but with current functionalities only one teacher can see active test sessions at a time without having to suspend a test and start it again in another teachers session.2 votes -
When rostering, schools should be able to roster for all 3 testing sessions at the same time.
Make it so admin can roster for all testing session at one time. We should not have to roster before each session, Fall, Winter, and Spring.

Bring back the info while looking at the Graph on student profile report
On the student profile report, bring back the info in the black box that used to appear when you hovered over a point on the student's graph that shows their individual growth over time. It was helpful to have this info in one place rather than having to click around for it.

data from hovering over tests
In the past, you could hover over each testing date on the progress graph and see information about that specific test. Could that feature return? It was so very helpful and we are really missing it.

Stacked English AND Spanish Math MAP Test (emergent bilingual students)
I love that the MAP Growth tests are offered in both English and Spanish. However, we are noticing a consistent issue in scores from newcomer students (those here between 1-3 years).
When they first come and take the test in Spanish, the scores are fairly accurate to what they are demonstrating in class. However, after that, all future learning is done primarily in English. If we continue testing in Spanish, they show minimal growth because they don't always know the vocabulary in their L1 (native language) and are unable to accurately demonstrate these new concepts on a Spanish test. Yet,…

Test results emailed to parents from NWEA.
Is there a way to send out test results directly from NWEA. ILEARN has this option as a family access page and they just log in and are able to see results. This would save paper and man power for the teachers or office staff

Allow accommodations to be added to multiple grade levels
Allowing accommodations to be added to multiple grade levels would be really helpful to our HS campuses. Courses often have multiple grade levels and when adding accommodations to multiple students at once, they cannot see the grade levels.

Allow for the option to change text to speech voice
Allow for the option to change the voice for text to speech accommodations. The voice doesn't not accurately read the text, and will say /red/ when we would want /reed/ for the word read. It will also change long and short vowel sounds so that students are unable to understand what is being read to them.

Notification when System is Down
Rather than not answering your phone or chat when there is a known testing issue, why don't you post a message on the website. Better yet, you could email local administrators. I had better things to do today than be on hold for 30+ minutes. PS I never received a call back, as promised multiple times.

The graph on the student report page is NO LONGER ACCURATE!!
I was just informed that the norms were updated this summer. However, the student report page has changed all previous windows to reflect the new norms. THIS IS NOT ACCURATE OR CORRECT. The percentiles are no longer accurate and the graph CANNOT be used to interpret the data. For example, a 157 for 1st grade for spring of 2025 was in the 15th percentile when the test was given. Now, it shows that the percentile is the 24th percentile. This makes the score within the average range while the 15th percentile is outside of it. This is a very large…

We should encourage students to lightly prepare for it, or let them know it's okay to study.
