New prescriptive activities for students
This year, study island is using our student’s Measure of Academic Progress (MAP®) assessment results to create an individualized learning path, delivered through the Study Island program. Study Island and NWEA customers can now easily pinpoint academic strengths and weaknesses through their NWEA MAP test results, and then automatically target those areas with Study Island’s standards-based content.
