What makes MAP what it is?
Adaptive Assessment
- RIT Scale - equal interval scale to measure growth
- Norms Data - reference point, exact down to time of year
- An instructional tool designed to help you know what your students are ready to learn.
How MAP Functions?
- First time students takes a test = Starts at grade level student is rostered (Gr.5), and gets harder if you get the 1st one right.
- MAP is grade level independent!
- Student may not see that same question for 12 to 14 months.
- Did you miss it b/c you didn't interpret the question correctly, or do you really not know the answer.
- Next time student takes a test (Fall, Winter, or Spring) Picks up where they left off! That's how it measures growth.
Now includes SAE (Student Assessment Engagement)
- SAE tracks how fast questions are being answered and determines if Proctor intervention should be taken. (i.e. Student starts to rapidly guess.)
- Proctor should track data on these Disengaged Students and how often they disengage.
- Proctor's SAE window refreshes every 20 seconds.
- Does not pause that students' test. You need to move to that student and conference with them.
Rasch unIT (RIT) Scale (also Ready for Instruction Today)
