[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly don't take much stock in the MCAP testing. The kids are already burnt out going into this test from their other schoolwork, assessments, and MAP, and then they have to spend hours and hours completing all the parts over several days. After a while, the kids are just done and don't really care about their answers anymore. Some don't take it seriously to begin with. They need to really shorten the test if they want more accurate results, or just somehow use MAP data and lessen the burden on students.[/quote] They don’t need to shorten the test they need to reduce how often it needs to be taken and remove the MAP exam from Spring for the students taking MCAP. 3rd, 5th, 8th is when MCAP should be give. These grades should remove the late Spring MAP. HS has MCAP End of Course exams for Bio, Government and Algebra. That’s fine.[/quote] I agree with this. It's stupid to have kids do both MCAP and MAP.[/quote]
