Make proctoring more teacher friendly!!!!
It is so incredibly frustrating and stressful to login 20 kindergarteners. There are so many steps and it makes proctoring experience SO stressful. There are so many things to click through per student and it takes so much time per student. Please walk through the process and look at it through a teacher's point of view. The data that we get from testing is helpful. But the actual logging in takes sooooooooo long especially for younger students. (Also, having teacher proctoring page refresh every 10 seconds rather than 60 seconds). I also can't see where the students are at via…

Text-to-speech questions in isolation from passage
Text-to-speech passages should give options to just read the question if the passage has multiple questions. As of right now, it reads the story all over again each time and some scholars get frustrated with that.

I want to enter my teachers names and get a report for all of their classes at one time.

screen resolution issue NWEA app for Windows
When using the app on desktops in the school, it works fine and I don't have to change the screen resolution.
When I try to use the NWEA app on laptops, it still states I have to change the screen resolution. This is very tedious as this is a large school and I have to do this for over 900 laptops every time we are doing this testing.I have figured out that to make it work I would have to change the "scale" from the default 150% on the laptops to either 125% or 100%. But this still does…

Disaggregating data for independent schools
Disaggregating data for independent schools so they can more accurately report data to their families. This data can then be used in the application process, replace the usage of ERBs, and become the de facto test for independent schools. The current limitations for reporting makes it very difficult.

Adjust the Rapid Guessing Threshold
The rapid guessing threshold should be adjusted. We had a student take an entire math MAP test in 11 minutes with nothing flagged as rapid guessing. This is not the first time a situation like this has occurred. I believe that the rapid guessing threshold is not effective currently and should be reassessed!

Improve operational report options
I'm a campus testing coordinator at a large HS. Having to pull a PDF of the students not tested is very inconvenient when I need to organize the data. There should be an option to download this data as a spreadsheet. Further, the reports should mention if a student is suspended or has not started the test at all. It would be extremely helpful if we could see what question they left off on if their test got suspended. There should also be the ability for a school testing admin to at least see if a student is in an…

New Batch Family Report is cumbersome
Bring back the old Family Report, please! The new Batch Family Report exports as a zip folder, where each individual student's file has to be opened in order to print. I have 300+ reports to print, and opening each student one at a time is not effective or efficient. The old report allowed users to run and print a whole class at a time with page breaks.

Mass Goal Setting Button
My campus teachers are asking for a tool that will mass set their students goals instead of having to go into each student and each subject to update the winder and spring goals.

Exact Scores for Instructional Areas on the Grade Breakdown Report
The exact RIT score for Instructional Areas should be available in the Grade Breakdown report rather than a RIT range. Currently, the only way to get exact student data is to download repeatedly from the Class Profile report which is not possible when examining data and determining MTSS placement at the school or district level.

Use human reader voices for the read aloud.
Please use human readers for the story passages. The computerized voice runs over punctuation, mashes words together, and puts unnatural breaks in sentences. For example it sounds like: "Where are we going?"........."asked John he sat"........"down in his chair."
Students who can read to themselves have the advantage of "hearing" the story read fluently, which aids their comprehension. Students who actually NEED the read aloud have to listen to it read dysfluently, and that's so unnecessary and unfair. I've had students with IEPs take their headphones off and say they would rather wing it than hear the "annoying" robot voice. There's…

K-2 Screening and Skills Checklist Reports
There is currently no way to export/batch all of the data from the K-2 Screening tests in csv or xls. The existing report only lets you export as PDF. The class report doesn't fit on one page and doesn't let you change the formating to fit on one page. The by student report has to be done one at a time for each test and each student. Please add a batch option for individual reports or add these tests to the options for batch print in family reports

Remove Final "Wagging Dog" Page from Growth K-2 Test
We've noticed an issue with the Growth K-2 test. A lot of students think they’re done, but their status shows as “suspended.” They often forget to click the “Next” button when they get to the final reward or wagging dog page, which means the test doesn’t actually finish. As a result, their scores don’t show up in the report.
This makes it hard to tell who’s actually finished the test and who hasn’t, since we can’t tell if they just missed the "Next" button or didn't complete the exam. The page seems unnecessary and just adds confusion. Removing it would…

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.)

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…

Adding back student data to Student Profile graphs!
When clicking on individual students reports, at the bottom of the report on the line graph that shows the data over time, you used to be able to click on any term, and all the student information appeared. (RIT score, percentage, how many minutes the test took, Rapid Guessing percentage, etc.). Now - that information is no longer available!! It only shows the students' RIT score. Why would you take away all that helpful data?!? If I'm trying to look at students' data over time to look for patterns, why would you not keep it all in the same place??…

Allow clickable word definitions that might hinder a students understanding of a standard based question or answer
Many of the problems students have with the questions are: they don’t know what a word means within that question or answer choice. The standard being measured does not include their knowledge of those words. Have the ability to click a word they don’t know to have the meaning pop up.

Data Point Boxes in Growth over Time Chart
With the 2020 norms, you were able to see the details in black boxes when you click on the data points in the Growth over Time (trend data) chart. With the 2025 norms, that information is not there anymore. Can you please add the data back into the boxes as it's helpful and efficient to look up previous information for the historical data. Thanks!
