SLIDE 4
What are MAP assessments?
The MAP assessments are computer adaptive assessments. The difficulty of the assessment is adjusted to the student’s performance on each question. As a student responds to questions, the test responds to the student, adjusting up or down in difficulty.

What are MAP assessments?
The assessments challenge every student. Assessments are untimed. Assessments are designed to measure growth and show how students are progressing.

What is a RIT score?
The overall scale score on the test. RIT stands for Rasch unIT. RIT scores are used to estimate student achievement. RIT scores create an equal-interval scale. RIT scores range from 150 to 300+. Allows you to follow a student’s educational growth from one year to the next.
