This book was released on 2008 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An assessment framework is like a blueprint, laying out the basic design of the assessment by describing the mathematics content that should be tested and the types of assessment questions that should be included. It also describes how the various design factors should be balanced across the assessment. This is an assessment framework, not a curriculum framework, nor does it address what (or how) mathematics should be taught. This report attempts to determine the mathematical skills that should be assessed in 2009 on NAEP at grades 4, 8, and 12. Following an overview, defining an assessment framework and describing the need for a new framework at grade 12, this report divides into five chapters. Chapter Two, "Mathematics Content," contains descriptions of the five major content areas of mathematics (Number Properties and Operations; Measurement; Geometry; Data Analysis, Statistics and Probability; and Algebra) and specific objectives for grades 4, 8 and 12. Chapter Three, "Mathematical Complexity," examines the three levels of mathematical complexity in NAEP assessment--low, moderate, and high--and offers examples of each. Chapter Four, "Item Formats," describes the NAEP mathematical test items which are written in one of three formats--multiple choice, short constructed response, or extended constructed response--and gives examples of each. Finally, each form of the NAEP mathematics assessment must be balanced according to a number of different factors, including content, level of complexity, and format. Chapter Five, "Design of Test and Items," describes the guidelines for balancing each factor. This chapter also addresses other issues of design such as sampling, use of calculators, tools and manipulatives, and accessibility for all students. The report also includes NAEP Mathematical Achievement Level Descriptions for grades 4, 8, and 12. (Contains 12 exhibits and a bibliography.).

Mathematics NAEP, 2009 written by National Assessment Governing Board and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the assessment and item specifications for the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) 2009 mathematics assessment. "Chapter Two" contains descriptions of the five major content areas of mathematics (Number Properties and Operations, Measurement, Geometry, Data Analysis, Statistics, and Probability, and Algebra), as well as the specific objectives for grades 4, 8 and 12 that will be assessed. Further specifications are added to some objectives to clarify the intent for item writers. Each NAEP mathematics test item is designed to measure a specific level of thinking, called the mathematical complexity of the item. "Chapter Three" describes the three levels and offers examples of each. "Chapter Four" describes considerations for good item writing, with multiple examples of how each characteristic of an item might be met. The chapter also contains a description of the item tryout and review process. Each form of the NAEP mathematics assessment must be balanced according to a number of different factors, including content, level of complexity, and format. In "Chapter Five" the guidelines for balancing each factor are described. The chapter also addresses other issues of design, such as sampling, use of calculators, tools and manipulatives, and accessibility for all students. Three appendices are included: (1) NAEP Mathematics Achievement Level Descriptions; (2) NAEP Item Development and Review Policy Statement; and (3) NAEP Mathematics Project Staff and Committees. (Contains 8 footnotes.) [This report is a companion to Mathematics Framework for the 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress. For the main report, see ED502928.].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Technical Brief examines the alignment between the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) mathematics assessment standards and the 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) mathematics framework. It looks at the extent to which current state assessment standards cover the content on which 2009 NAEP assessments will be based. Applying the methodology used by Regional Educational Laboratory Southwest in 2007 in a similar study that examined the alignment of TAKS science assessment standards with the 2009 NAEP (http://ies.ed.gov/ncee/edlabs/projects/project.asp?projectID=76&productID=36), this study presents results for areas of full alignment, partial alignment, nonalignment, and areas where the TAKS assessment standards go beyond the NAEP standards. The study finds that 74 percent of the NAEP grade 4, 81 percent of the NAEP grade 8, and 71 percent of the NAEP grade 12 assessment standards are either fully or partially addressed by the TAKS assessment standards. The study analyzes the alignment of the TAKS and the 2009 NAEP mathematics assessment standards. It does not analyze individual items or the alignment of state standards with the TAKS assessment items. The study does not make specific recommendations about whether a state should close gaps in alignment to the NAEP--a decision for state policymakers. Revising assessments requires substantial time and resources, so policymakers considering such revisions need to weigh the costs of such changes and the benefits they believe such changes will bring to students.

Book excerpt: This technical brief examines the current alignment between the New Mexico Standards Based Assessment (NMSBA) standards and the 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) mathematics framework. It looks at the extent to which current state assessment standards cover the content on which 2009 NAEP assessments will be based. Applying the methodology used by Regional Educational Laboratory Southwest in 2007 in a similar study that examined the alignment of New Mexico science standards with the 2009 NAEP, this study presents results for areas of full alignment, partial alignment, nonalignment, and areas where the NMSBA assessment standards go beyond the NAEP standards. The study finds that 92 percent of NAEP grade 4, 94 percent of NAEP grade 8, and 80 percent of NAEP grade 12 assessment standards (aligned with current NMSBA assessment standards) and 77 percent of NAEP grade 12 assessment standards (aligned with proposed NMSBA assessment standards) are either fully or partially addressed by the NMSBA assessment standards. The study analyzes the alignment of the NMSBA and 2009 NAEP mathematics assessment standards. It does not analyze individual items or the alignment of state standards with the NMSBA assessment items. The study does not make specific recommendations about whether a state should close gaps in alignment to NAEP--a decision for state policymakers. Revising assessments requires substantial time and resources, so policymakers considering such revisions need to weigh the costs of such changes and the benefits they believe such changes will bring to students.

This book was released on 2009-11-13 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early childhood mathematics is vitally important for young children's present and future educational success. Research demonstrates that virtually all young children have the capability to learn and become competent in mathematics. Furthermore, young children enjoy their early informal experiences with mathematics. Unfortunately, many children's potential in mathematics is not fully realized, especially those children who are economically disadvantaged. This is due, in part, to a lack of opportunities to learn mathematics in early childhood settings or through everyday experiences in the home and in their communities. Improvements in early childhood mathematics education can provide young children with the foundation for school success. Relying on a comprehensive review of the research, Mathematics Learning in Early Childhood lays out the critical areas that should be the focus of young children's early mathematics education, explores the extent to which they are currently being incorporated in early childhood settings, and identifies the changes needed to improve the quality of mathematics experiences for young children. This book serves as a call to action to improve the state of early childhood mathematics. It will be especially useful for policy makers and practitioners-those who work directly with children and their families in shaping the policies that affect the education of young children.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document sets forth recommendations for the design of a new science assessment. The assessment resulting from this framework will start a new NAEP science trend (i.e., measure of student progress in science) beginning in 2009. This framework represents a unique opportunity to build on previous NAEP science work as well as key developments in science standards, assessments, and research. This document is intended to inform the general public, educators, policymakers, and others about what students are expected to know and be able to do in science as part of The Nation's Report Card, a program of the U.S. Department of Education (ED) that reports on NAEP findings. This 2009 framework presents the content to be assessed as well as the conceptual base for the assessment. The new framework incorporates several key features. Its design is based on widely accepted national science standards and assessments in addition to state curriculum standards. However, it is intended to inform development of an assessment, not to advocate for a particular approach to instruction or to represent the entire range of science content and skills. In view of the need to keep the United States and its youth internationally competitive in science and technology, the framework development process gave special consideration to international assessment frameworks, such as those for Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). The breadth of the science principles represented in the source materials made it necessary to focus on the foundational and pervasive knowledge within each discipline and to pare down the science content to be assessed. The framework is based on scientific knowledge and processes derived from tested explanations and supported by accumulated empirical evidence. Explanations of natural phenomena that rely on nonscientific views are not reflected in the framework. Science content is presented in detailed, grade-specific charts that also allow the reader to see the progression in complexity of ideas across grades. Every attempt has been made to be free of error in describing the science content. The language used strives to be accurate but not technical so as to make the framework accessible to a wide audience. The focus is on students' conceptual understanding, that is, their knowledge and use of science facts, concepts, principles, laws, and theories. Students' abilities to engage in some components of scientific inquiry and technological design are also reflected in the framework. New types of items are recommended, including the use of interactive computer tasks. This document contains four chapters: (1) Overview; (2) Science Content; (3) Science Practices; and (4) Overview of the Assessment Design. Appended are: (A) Steering Committee Guidelines; (B) NAEP Science Preliminary Achievement Level Descriptions; (C) Sample Items and Scoring Guides; and (D) Group 2 Small-Scale Special Studies. (Contains 24 exhibits and a bibliography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents results of the 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) in reading and mathematics at grade 12. Results for students in the nation and, for the first time, in the 11 states that volunteered to participate in the 2009 state pilot program are reported as average scores and as percentages of students performing at or above three achievement levels: Basic, Proficient, and Advanced. Results for student demographic groups (e.g., race/ethnicity, gender, and highest level of parental education) are included, as well as sample assessment questions with examples of student responses. The Technical Notes and appendix tables provide information on NAEP samples, school and student participation rates, the exclusion and accommodation rates of students with disabilities and English language learners, and additional state-level results. Nationally representative samples of twelfth-graders from 1,670 public and private schools across the nation participated in the 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). Approximately 52,000 students were assessed in reading, and 49,000 students were assessed in mathematics. National reading results from the 2009 assessment are compared to results from five earlier assessment years going back to 1992. The 2009 mathematics results are compared to those from 2005 when a change in the mathematics framework for the assessment necessitated a new trend line for that subject at grade 12. Highlights of the national results in 2009 show that the overall average reading score for twelfth-graders was 2 points higher than in 2005, but 4 points lower than in 1992. There were no significant changes from 1992 to 2009 in the reading score gaps between White and Black students or between White and Hispanic students. In mathematics, the overall average score was 3 points higher in 2009 than in 2005. There was no significant change from 2005 in the mathematics score gaps between White and Black students or between White and Hispanic students. In the 11 participating states, average reading scores in seven states were higher than the score for the nation, and scores for three states were lower. In mathematics, the average scores for six states were higher than the nation, and scores for three states were lower. (Contains 29 tables and 24 figures.).
