Kenilworth's guide to Map Testing

MAP testing is used to provide a percentile based ranking of a students math ability. 

Sections of the MAP test

There are 4 core areas depending on grade

What is the purpose of MAP testing?

The most common reason for parents to inquire about MAP testing is because they want to get into an advanced class in their school and MAP testing is one of three tools used to determine eligibility (along with grades and Teacher Recommendation). In Kenilworth the advanced classes start in 6th grade (include link to NEW trier math program). Generally teachers are looking for scores in the 90th percentile demonstrated over a couple of tests for about a year or longer.

What you will need to set up MAP testing:

Go to the Khan academy teacher dashboard (https://www.khanacademy.org/teacher/dashboard) and then click the dots next to your course listing.  You can create a student account if you have properly enabled the teacher account for yourself and doing it in this way will enable you to assign scores and units without waiting for them to join the class. 

Once you have added a student you can go here (MAP testing page: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/mappers) to add a student's scores. Note: If your school doesn't provide exact scores try to use their RIT score and their performance in each category to approximate the correct range for the student.

Because this isn't designed as a typical Khan Academy course you will need to add the specific units that a student should work on. This ensures the specific material will be located in their mastery goals instead of their general practice in their class courses as you can see from the example below.

To assign a units simply click on the unit recommendation from the MAP testing page and click assign in the top right. Select the class, student and due date and make sure to do this for all 4 units. 

Once this has been done you will need to send the login credentials to the parent via email or make sure that the student is set up with a tablet to work on when they come in.
