Comparative Data to Inform Instructional Decisions. NWEA Research 2020 Comparative Data
NWEA
To help provide context to MAP® Growth™ normative percentiles, this document includes multiple College and Career Readiness (CCR) benchmarks, including those from ACT®, SAT®, and Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (Smarter Balanced). The comparative data in the tables presented in this report can be used as data points for instructional decision-making. While not intended for use as a single placement guide, the data can help inform a variety of programmatic and instructional decisions, including: (1) identifying and qualifying students for various instructional strategies; (2) guiding teachers who do not regularly make decisions on instructional program choices for students; (3) scheduling and grouping to meet students' learning needs; (4) screening for special or alternative instruction; and (5) staffing and resourcing. The comparative data included in the tables provides information from both the fall and spring. Norming data is provided for the fall term to aid in placement, screening, and scheduling/grouping decisions at the beginning of the year. Conversely, college readiness information (Smarter Balanced, ACT, SAT) is displayed for the spring term. This provides educators with end-of-year scores, for the purposes of student goal setting, to help get students to the point where they are on track to being college ready.
