The NWEA is becoming more and more popular nationwide, and many schools have recently adopted this assessment tool. NWEA results accurately measure student growth and learning needs, yet sometimes teachers are unsure how to navigate the results they receive.
This workshop will help educators understand about Norms, RIT, Scaled Scores, the Learning Continuum, and more. Participants will explore sample NWEA Reports and figure out how to use incoming data to make informed decisions for individual students. This engaging session will help educators get the most out of their NWEA MAP results.
