hi ....nwea is short for northwest educational assesment. they make an achievement test called the MAP which kids take once or twice a year to measure no child left behind. what makes this particular test so interesting is that the children take it at a computer which adjusts the questions to make them easier if the child gets the answers wrong and makes the questioons more advanced if the child gets correct answers. hope that helps. grinity
