Keep the Learning Continuum.
Like many of my colleagues, I used the learning continuum to plan for whole and small group instruction. This valuable tool helped us try to avoid the swiss cheese learning we all dread in education. Without the ease of use of the former learning continuum trying to cross reference student scores and scroll through categories by topic or standard is punishing, arduous and nearly impossible. What you are currently offering as your substitute for the learning continuum is not helpful. It is frustrating. You have essentially stripped away the most valuable facet of the data you provided.

Biliteracy trajectories and biliteracy reports like Renaissance STAR has for dual language schools
We need reports for dual language learners that show students MAP Reading scores side-by-side in Spanish and English, and quadrant charts that show if a student is in the Biliteracy Zone.

Reinstate the NPR on the Student Profile Report
I can no longer see the NPR on the Student Profile Report. Previously, on this report, when you would click on an historical test on the graph, you could see the NPR information for that test. I see with an online search that “NWEA has refined its reporting over time to emphasize specific metrics that they believe are most helpful for informing instruction. By moving the percentile rank, they have shifted the focus of the student profile report to a growth-oriented view, rather than a normative comparison.” As a Coordinator of Gifted Services in Ohio, I can only identify a…

student profile
For MAP Growth tests, I want a file that lists all of the Learning Statements for each student after they have taken the assessment. Right now, I have to go into each individual student to pull up their Student Profile to find this information. I want it available as a district .csv so that I may extract the individual statements for specific groups of students.

Student Profile Reports clustered by score bands
Please indicate student percentile numbers on the drop down of student information. I'm not looking to create these profiles for all my students, but would like to pull them for thiose performing below or above expectations.

school
When we upload a class roster file, it should permit the students to be in classes in more than one school without fiddling. We have students who are taking one or more classes at another school within our district, and when the roster file has more than one school for a student, the rostering process fails to assign the students to a school of record. We are having to manually move these students or upload multiple roster files to achieve something that should be basic in the rostering process.

site
The main page should have the main things easier to get to, manage test sessions, individual student search, growth reports, etc. They are all needlessly hidden behind other links and clicks.

Not Appropriate for Kindergarten
This format and layout are completely developmentally inappropriate for early childhood education students. I watched time and time again students who were attempting to answer questions correctly but couldn't because they were trying to drag images, words, or numbers. The idea of having to click it just the 'right way' so it is highlighted with a dotted box around it, and then click where to put it is insane. Further, when students were attempting to formulate sight words or sentences, some were trying to put them in order but because they weren't clicking on the exact correct spot on the…

Class Profile Report
Class Profile Report needs to show the biggest need to "reinforce", "develop", and "introduce". Showing that only on the student profile makes it difficult to help as many as possible. Including a grouping suggestion based on the highest needs would be a great help too.

Improve the user-friendliness of the test!
This test is very difficult to administer. Please make it easy for teachers by being able to assign the test once and being done. It is very difficult to have to keep confirming kids. The kids often get kicked out and you have to check them and give them a different status and then confirm them again, so I can't go on to other tasks that I have to do - I am constantly having to monitor whether my kids have access to this darn test. The administration of it is not user-friendly at all!

accommodations
It would be helpful to have the ability for a testing administrator or testing coordinator to pull a report before testing has begun, but after sessions have been created, that shows which accommodations have been assigned to the students. This would allow administrators to confirm that the correct accommodations have been assigned to students before the test is given with the incorrect accommodations.

Family Access to MAP Results
The process by which to share MAP results with families is miserable. The family report is not batch-exportable so until NWEA decides to prioritize this simple but critical aspect of the Family Report, the process remains a clerical and technical challenge.
I would strong advocate for NWEA to institute a system by which parents can enter their child's ID (provided and rostered by the school) and through this system, they can access their child's MAP report. This would remove the school as the "middle man" in the distribution of MAP reports and significantly ease the burden of schools in this…

class/grade
In the student report, I can click on "Literary Text" and see skills ("analyze point of view" or "analyze characterization" for example) the individual student is ready to develop versus those that need reinforcement or development. I'd like to see something similar in class reports, grade level reports, and district level reports, disaggregated reading skills data from rather than just the RIT scores in Literary Texts, Informational Texts, and Vocabulary.
This report would be helpful for teachers to see where their class' overall weaknesses are, for grade level PLC teams, and for coaches and specialists. To get this kind of…

Add Embedded Calculator Accommodation
I would love an embedded calculator option for those students with IEPs who need a calculator for the entire test.

Bring back Class Report
To print the new Class Profile uses so much paper, please bring back the condensed Class Report. Downloading to .CVC file is too hard to read when there used to be a perfectly good readable report.

Data Report
A report that showed the students percentile of each "topic" tested within the assessment.
For ex: on the k-12 Science test- we want to see how our students did (%) on Earth and Space. This way, we can pull the lowest 20% in a small group. This may be a different group of students with the "Life" science topic of the test. So we would pull another group.3 votes -

Progress monitoring option
It would be nice for our intervention teachers to have an option to progress monitor students on individualized learning plans to ensure students are making adequate progress towards their goals. This may be an option through additional paid platforms, but we only have access to MAPS Growth for the time being.

RIT Reference Chart Updates
The latest RIT Reference Chart Brochure is from 2019. An updated copy with the 2025 norms would be VERY helpful as it is a great visual for new teachers doing MAP testing for the first time along with parents. It gives a great example of where students are currently at.
