  2. NAEP – National Assessment of Educational Progress http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/

  3. NAEP Programs • Main NAEP – results are representative of the entire US population • State NAEP – same items and testing format, reports achievement for fourth and eighth grade students on a state-by-state basis • Long-Term Trend – uses different items, national sample, and testing schedule.

  4. NAEP Content Strands in Mathematics • Number sense, properties, and operations • Measurement • Geometry and spatial sense • Data analysis, statistics, and probability • Algebra and functions

  5. NAEP Item Formats • Multiple choice format 4th grade – four choices 8th & 12th grades – five choices • Short constructed-response Two types 1. Students write answer in space provided. 2. Multiple questions or a brief rationale. • Extended constructed-response Scored with focused, holistic rubrics

  6. Reporting Results: Scale Score and Achievement Levels • Scale scores Range from 0 to 500 Available by content strand Available by demographic characteristics Designed to get a sense of performance of the nation as a whole, not performance of individual students • Achievement levels Basic, proficient, and advanced Setting of achievement levels is controversial (proficient level is very ambitious)

  7. Questionnaires • Student Questionnaire All students complete two five-minute questionnaires before the cognitive items and one five-minute questionnaire after completing the items #1 focuses on demographics #2 focuses on mathematics background & courses #3 focuses on how hard the students tried and the difficulty of the assessment • Teacher Questionnaire • School Administrator Questionnaire
