Spring Map Testing

4/28/2015

1 Comment

 
Map Testing will take place at
Malvern May 4 - 26

During this time the computer lab will NOT operate on its normal schedule. The computer lab will be closed and only open to those teachers scheduled for Map Testing. The normal schedule will resume on May 27th.

The library will also have testing taking place for several days during this time. Several class book checkout times WILL be rescheduled to accommodate the testing schedule.

MAP Deadlines


Before first MAP test: 
Login to your account, and assign your students the  Reading, Math and Science Tests.
On test day: Come in prepared to do your best. Please do your best to be prompt. I will make every attempt to have computers running and fully functional. Students will need to open the MAP Program, while you login to the administration site and launch the test. PLEASE ENSURE YOU SELECT THE CORRECT TEST. You will need to find your Saved Test Sessions and press Test Now. 
Make the session name and password visible to students. 
They will then select their name and test, and confirm. You will need to confirm students as they login on the administration site.
After the test: Make sure you checkout the Map Reports, Class Reports and the Learning Continuum. New teachers should discuss and explore these reports with their mentor and teams are encouraged to explore and discuss best practices.

FAQ for teachers:

Q: Is the computer lab completely closed?
A: Yes. Due to MAP Testing the computer lab (note I said the computer lab and NOT the entire Learning Commons) is closed until May 27th. We will return to our normal schedule of classes coming into the lab to use computers (i.e. iStation or other activities) on May 27th.

Q: What about book checkout times?
A: Unless you were specifically contacted about changing your book checkout times, these remain unchanged. To see the book checkout schedule if you are unsure visit this link: https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=0bo4fpffmc26idpfhr59v41m8k%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Chicago

Q: Can we send students to the library for extra book checkout times?
A: Please contact the library first. Call 5362 for Susan or 5361 for Karen just to double check that there is no testing in the library at this time and that one of us is available to help students.
