[quote=Anonymous]APS admin....For me NNAT is helpful at identifying kids with strengths that are typically overlooked by traditional classroom measures, due to language acquisition levels or disabilities. As is the case with any single measure, it does not mean a student is automatically identified as needing gifted services. That said, if a student scores high on the NNAT it is definitely a flag that we need to be on the lookout for additional evidence that a student needs greater challenge and rigor while continuing to nurture areas that don't readily present as strong. If a student is already presenting as advanced, particularly verbally, in classroom activities and on other measures, the NNAT results help provide more information about the student's overall profile, particularly with regard to nonverbal reasoning.[/quote]
