School Data Administrator
Creating a School Data Administrator position would allow a data leader at our school to be in control of rostering, resetting tests, adjusting settings such as Weeks of Instruction, etc. instead of relying on someone at the district/Archdiocese level for these tasks. This would help our school's teachers and leaders have a better understanding and greater investment in the testing process.

NWEA MAP Text-to-Speech Accommodation for Math Assessment
Text-to-Speech Accommodation for Math Assessment: Enable the Text-to-Seech Accommodation to be applied directly to the test itself instead of individual students. Text to Speech is a standard support for our students during Mathematics and Algebra assessments. The current method of assigning this accommodation to students, particularly during mixed-grade test sessions, is inefficient. The option could be added to the MODIFY TESTS section of Modify Preferences.

Being able to impersonate the instructor
There are at times, when a teacher reaches out and can't find a student or is having an issue with a test session. I have another program that we use for assessing students and at the highest of roles, I have the ability to become that user to see what they are seeing. That would be a great tool to be able to have at the system admin role in NWEA. It would help me to be able to troubleshoot an issue faster for a teacher who is struggling.

Accomodations Received on Student Report
I would love an easy way to pull testing accommodations that a student received during testing at the campus/district level. If a student receives the wrong accomodation/did not receive an accommodation, our test data becomes invalid. Currently having to pull the data from the data export scheduler is not user friendly. You have to compare reports to find what you are looking for. If one of the reports within the export showed the student name, test they took, and the accommodations assigned, (within one report), that would be extremely helpful. The way it is currently set up, you have to…

make a parent login
Make it possible for parents and students to login and see their data. Allowing batched PDF downloads is not empowering for these stakeholders and creates a ton of work for people in coordinator positions within the schools.

Your new home page is terrible
Was the idea to add both marketing garbage and more clicks to get to the things we actually want? If so, bravo.
Admin like me want the admin/management page. Teachers want the reporting page. The only people who want "product news and updates" to be the first thing we see is your marketing team.
Get rid of it, or at least give us the option of setting our home page.

Consider adding impersonation role for district coordinators.
Frequently, campus admin. and teachers have an issue, or need step by step instructions despite providing them the directions from the site. An ability to impersonate a campus admin. or teacher would allow district coordinates to provide specific process as well as assist in trouble shooting issues.

Login Fronted: Logging Me Out of My Mind!
Despite actively working on the platform, I'm repeatedly logged out automatically after a short period. This isn't just inconvenient; it's wasting a significant amount of my time and severely impacting my productivity. Frankly, it's baffling that such a basic functionality isn't working as expected.I strongly encourage you to look into this issue, as it’s turning a straightforward task into an unnecessarily complicated one.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Single Sign On (SSO) for Google and Microsoft
Can you please set up the admin login to allow SSO with Microsoft and Google? Our staff and teachers use an app portal. This is our only app that doesn't allow SSO.

Rename "Growth Math 6+" to "Growth Math Secondary"
Many view the Growth Math 6+ as a 6th grade test based on the title. Given its content and span, I would recommend the name be changed to "Growth Math Secondary".

Make available a bank of DEMO Data
Have a bank of DEMO Data that consists of all subjects that can be used during summer PD for teachers when school district data is not available. That way teachers can get in and get hands-on with actual data to see which reports will be most beneficial for driving both Tier 1 and small group instruction in their classrooms. Just watching videos on the NWEA website, or looking at pictures of the different kinds of reports, is not enough for teachers to get good at using the multitude of ways that NWEA can be of use to them in their…

Go back to the old website
All I want to do is print my students' scores...not train on how to find them on your website. No one has time for that and I can't find any of the stuff I actually need! Let's take it back to an assessment website instead of a professional development website.

Testing Coordinator Dashboard
Testing Coordinators and admin NEED a testing dashboard that shows all classes, all proctors, all students, all tests, all progress, all accommodations set, all terminated sessions, all rapid guessing, all completed tests for a specific testing season.
It is imperative this is developed. It is so difficult to manage a school of testing, when there is no easy way to see how students are progressing. We have to rely on a spreadsheet teachers update, but they often forget to update, and it is very difficult to figure out with many students, many sessions going, and it creates delays (24 hours,…4 votes -
Terminated Test Report
As a District Test Administrator, I would like a report that shows all students in my district with terminated tests. Students are accidentally terminated and then not able to get into a test session due to our district restriction on the number of tests allowed in a testing window. This data is crucial and it causes frustration on the school side when they are unable to easily test all students. I would have the ability to troubleshoot these issues before they become an obstacle if there was a report showing this status available.

Give district admin password reset option for users!
Please give us the ability to reset user passwords. I've had to call/chat about 5 teachers unable to use the forgot password option (and they have existing accounts). I've wasted so much time on it, including with a chat help who forgot to escalate so we've missed more days of testing.

Student Groups by Instructional Areas
For RTI purposes (Tier 3 specifically), it would be very beneficial if students could be grouped by instructional areas based off of their benchmark assessments.

Warning that Platform is Nearing End Of Life
Each year our schools are caught off guard when Chromebooks and IPads are not able to support NWEA testing. It would great if, as one of these devices approaches end of life, the NWEA application would detect the situation and notify the users that their machine may not work during an upcoming testing session.

Student Count in Test Scheduling
When I am selecting students to add to a test session, it would be really helpful if they were numbered in the Student List. Sometimes I can have 50+ students in a session without any quick way of reconciling and checking that I have the correct number of students other than counting them all.
