What is MAP testing ?
MAP® is a US computer adaptive test created by NWEA™ that students take two times a year. The test adjusts to each student’s learning level, providing a unique set of test questions based on responses. It is designed to determine each student’s academic growth over time.

Children do not need to prepare for the test, but NWEA does provide a Practice Test so that children can preview the screens and practice using the mouse and tools provided in the program. The username and password are both "grow".
