MAP Testing:

MAP Testing at AISL
​

Standardised testing hasn’t always had the best reputation. But here at AIS, students take MAP testing twice a year to give teachers data about where students are at both internationally and in the USA. “MAP is a computer adaptive test, which means every student gets a unique set of test questions based on responses to previous questions. As the student answers correctly, questions get harder. If the student answers incorrectly, the questions get easier” (NWEA). The tests in Maths, Language and Reading don’t take long to complete. The results highlight student strengths and gaps and teachers can thus gauge where a student is at in their academic development so as to adapt teaching and learning to student need.
