What is NWEA testing?

NWEA testing refers to assessments developed by the Northwest Evaluation Association, primarily known for the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) tests. These assessments are designed to measure student growth and proficiency in subjects such as mathematics, reading, and language usage. NWEA tests are adaptive, meaning the difficulty adjusts based on the student's responses, providing a personalized measure of student learning over time. Schools often use these results to inform instruction and track academic progress.
