The RIT scale is an equal-interval scale and measures grade-level growth over time.

10 pts of RIT growth is better growth achievement than 5 pts of RIT growth.

Ideally, MAP is designed for students to get 50% of items correct and 50% of items incorrect.

MAP is an assessment to determine mastery of skills.

MAP provides a standard growth projection for all students in a grade.

MAP finds a student's Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD).

The mean, or 50^th percentile, is a benchmark for student grade-level performance on MAP.

Norms define expected performance of groups of students, usually expressed in percentiles.

The RIT scale is based on the grade level difficulty of assessment items.
