Notify Users IN ADVANCE for Updated Maintenance Hours
Please notify your users IN ADVANCE for upcoming maintenance not only on the status page but also the connection page specifically for Maintenance Time: https://connection.nwea.org/s/system-maintenance-windows?language=en_US
It is not helpful at all inserting a not-in-time (have to refresh to check the latest update) log in notification for an upcoming maintenance time within several hours. It is very difficult for schools to reschedule everyone with the last-minute notice. Especially international schools that are not in the PDT time zone.
It is particularly not helpful if everyone will have to wait till the admin sees the notice and react to it. Please send…

Client Notification When System is Down
MAP should PROACTIVELY post a message on their website and/or send immediate communication to their stakeholders when they're experiencing internal issues, i.e. today's server issue, RATHER THAN waiting for stakeholders to contact them, wait on the phone for hours of time, to find out what the issue is. Today's server error was INCREDIBLY disruptive to our EOY testing schedule and school community. The communication from MAP was not there and could have mitigated many of these frustrations.

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.

Add a button that we can click to submit an issue with the website.
When getting kicked out of the test, and seeing an "error" message, or issue with the testing site. It would be nice to have a "report an issue" button that we can click. The status page takes a while to get updated and instead of having to sit on chat for over an hour just to say "hey, there's an issue. Did you know?" We could do something to make sure you knew - like click a button. Teachers are people of action - waiting around without any info about why we can't test, is very stressful. Especially when we…

field questions to build confidence
To help build student confidence the test starts out with 2-3 easy (on grade-level or below) field questions. These questions do not have to count towards the test score. I have given this assessment several times and on the first or second question, I have students crying defeated because the question is so hard.

Terminating a Test should be admin only
Proctors should not be able to administer a test. I have had multiple proctors terminate multiple tests because a student thinks they are not done with a test (forgot they finished with a different teacher a different day), and the teacher gets flustered and terminates the test, thinking they can reset it so the student can be assigned a new test. Please make it much more difficult to terminate a test so this is not accidentally done. Thanks!

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.

Please make available in the profile report (school especially) previous years to match term tested and term rostered. Term rostered 21-22.
Please make available in the profile report (school especially) previous years to match the term tested and term rostered. Term rostered can only go back to the 23-24 school year. I need it to go back to the 21-22 and 22-23 school year.

Email Notifications for Failed Classlink Roster Import
When a nightly roster data import from Classlink fails to post, generate an email notification to the district administrators making them aware of the failure. I just happened to be in NWEA investigating an unrelated issue and noticed that our nightly sync from Classlink had a "cancelled" status each night for over a month due to a new program code being added by the student information system administrator. I had no idea that new students were not being added to NWEA for all that time. I am told that such notifications happen for Clever districts, but that it isn't set…

Improve manual rostering to include semi-automatic rollovers.
It is currently a very cumbersome process to re-import our setup every term. It should not be difficult to permit rollover from previous terms, and allow individual students to be excluded from the process.

Allow a User Account to Access Multiple Districts
As a consultant who works with multiple charter schools, I currently have to provide a separate email address to each school in order to establish a MAP account to access reports, etc. Please provide an option to assign multiple districts to one email address, then have the user select the district they want to access when they log in. Other sites like Panorama, WASC portal, etc. provide this functionality.

Intervention Schedule
NWEA in schools could be improved by implementing a system that automatically groups students into centers based on their specific needs within a given topic. By analyzing assessment data, NWEA could place students who need reinforcement in a particular skill together, allowing teachers to provide more targeted instruction. This would make small-group instruction more effective, ensuring that students receive the support they need while working alongside peers at a similar level. Additionally, this approach would help teachers differentiate instruction more efficiently, reducing the time spent manually grouping students and allowing for a more seamless learning experience.
Another valuable addition would…

Enter the student's full name to include the middle initial in reports.
Reports print out the student's first and last name, but is missing the student's middle initial. This helps when merging different reports from different resources.

Specific growth goals to improve achievement percentile verse growth in RIT for students far below grade level needing accelerated growth.
We need a way to calculate growth goals based on improving achievement percentiles compared to the normed growth goals currently set. We have students far below grade level and these norms do not end up growing student percentiles.

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.

Remove accessibility warning from MAP screening tests
With the recent removal of the standard version of the MAP screening tests leaving only the accessible versions of the MAP screening tests, the pop-up warning that you have selected an accessible version of the screening tests that tells you to make sure you have chosen the correct version is misleading and causes proctors to question their choice when there is no longer any other version to select. Can that message be removed?
