NEW: Goal Setting PowerPoint
(coming soon)

When administering the MAP assessment, record student overall scores as well as goal area scores when they appear onscreen at the end of the test. Students will readily recognize areas of strength and areas of challenge. Working to improve the challenge area with the lowest goal score typically produces overall academic growth in that subject area.
