I had the same problem a few years ago.  After exporting from JMC, I
just remove all teacher ids within Excel and replace with one identical
teacher for all records within each building.
ex.:  mnw_hs_teacher, mnw_ms_teacher, mnw_elem_teacher
We have never used the reports tracking back to the teachers so it is a
waste of time for us.

Hi, everyone!  I have a question for those of you using MAP  
testing . . .

After uploading our data (and combining all buildings)--I received an 

error message that we have teachers who have the same ID's.  This  
makes sense, since in each building there is a teacher assigned as  
teacher 1, 2, etc.  --which results in 5 teachers having the same  
ID's for the most part.  Are there any problems/ramifications you  
could think of with assigning different numbers to teachers than what 

they are listed as in JMC?  I was told by NWEA that I cannot upload  
each building separately--but it's kind of hard to go in and assign  
different teacher ID's in JMC this year with the effect that would  
have on schedules/grades, etc.  Do I need to try and assign a number  
that the teacher could have, say next year if I make those changes in 

JMC, or could I just randomly assign numbers in the upload file that  
won't affect anything.  We will only be testing once this year.

Hope this makes sense.  I appreciate any advice from those who have  
been there!
Enjoy the day!

[info-tech] MAP testing question

Hi, everyone!  I have a question for those of you using MAP  
testing . . .


After uploading our data (and combining all buildings)--I received an  
error message that we have teachers who have the same ID's.  This  
makes sense, since in each building there is a teacher assigned as  
teacher 1, 2, etc.  --which results in 5 teachers having the same  
ID's for the most part.  Are there any problems/ramifications you  
could think of with assigning different numbers to teachers than what  
they are listed as in JMC?  I was told by NWEA that I cannot upload

different teacher ID's in JMC this year with the effect that would  
have on schedules/grades, etc.  Do I need to try and assign a number  
that the teacher could have, say next year if I make those changes in  
JMC, or could I just randomly assign numbers in the upload file that  
won't affect anything.  We will only be testing once this year.


Hope this makes sense.  I appreciate any advice from those who have
