    I came across this site that has activities organized by MAP RIT scores. Looks pretty useful.

    Hi inky,

    Thanks for posting these websites... looks like fun activities for the spring break/summer.

    Just wondering, is there any significance to the "course number" other than indicating a level?

    Thanks!

    Hi Mag,
    The number links the RIT score from the NWEA MAP test.

    What is RIT?
    Tests developed by NWEA use a scale called RIT to measure student achievement and growth. RIT stands for Rasch UnIT, which is a measurement scale developed to simplify the interpretation of test scores. The RIT score relates directly to the curriculum scale in each subject area. It is an equal-interval scale, like feet and inches, so scores can be added together to calculate accurate class or school averages.
