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 as gifted with an NPR. This will be a huge issue for every gifted coordinator in every district in Ohio that uses MAP tests. For our purposes, we need to see the NPR, not only the RIT, goal setting, or growth projection.
It is rather presumptuous of NWEA to decide what we need to focus on! Depending on your role, you may need the RIT, the Growth info, Goal setting, or the NPR. Why take away one data point because you don't deem it important? Shouldn't that be the client's choice?
Is there any way to log my concern and request you reinstate the NPR on the student profile report?
