Preparing for Coach

Rostering

Partners with MAP Reading with Coach licenses should use HMH Rostering Service (HRS) to roster. To learn more, visit Student/Staff Roster. For detailed instructions related to HRS visit HMH Rostering Service Help.

Technical requirements

See System Requirements for MAP Reading Fluency technical requirements, which are the same as MAP Reading Fluency with Coach. Note: Launching Coach from an iOS/iPad is not currently supported.

Classroom setup for Coach

Coach works best when each student has a computer or tablet with internet access, as well as a headset with a boom mic to help capture the student's voice accurately and filter out classroom noise. The classroom environment should be relatively quiet with reduced distractions to allow students to deliver their best reading and maximize the detection of student speech.

Generally, students should be seated laterally (side by side) and/or across from each other to reduce noise interference from behind the student. Ideally, there should be desk-width or longer distance between students to reduce crosstalk.
