Appendix D1-1: NAEP Overview Brochure

Why is student participation important?
NAEP assesses a sample of students across the country to be
representative of all students in the United States. Students who are
selected represent the nation’s geographic, racial, ethnic, and
socioeconomic diversity. Each student’s participation is critical for
providing an accurate and complete picture of student achievement and
ensuring that policymakers, researchers, and educators have reliable data
to inform educational improvements.

What is it like for students and schools to
participate in NAEP?

U.S. Department of Education
NCES 2018-153

NAEP is administered to students during regular school hours. Each
student is assessed in one subject area. Students spend between 90
and 120 minutes taking the assessment, including time to complete a
survey questionnaire.
NAEP representatives will bring all necessary materials, including
tablets or laptops for digitally based assessments, to the schools on
assessment day.

An Overview
of NAEP

Allowable accommodations are provided as necessary for students
with disabilities and/or English language learners.

What other data are collected during a
NAEP assessment?
NCES includes survey questionnaires as part of NAEP to collect
information that helps put the results into context. There are three
types of survey questionnaires:
Students complete questionnaires that provide information on
their opportunities to learn in and outside of the classroom,
educational experiences, and a variety of other topics, including
socioeconomic status and technology use. Students may skip
any question by leaving a response blank.
Teachers responsible for the subject of the administered
assessment complete questionnaires that gather information
on teacher trainings and instructional practices.
School questionnaires, usually completed by the principal
or assistant principal, gather information on school policies
and characteristics.

The following are examples of the types of NAEP questions and features
students may encounter when participating in digitally based assessments.*

What is NAEP?
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), often
called The Nation’s Report Card, is the largest nationally
representative and continuing assessment of what students in
public and private schools in the United States know and are
able to do in various subjects. Since 1969, NAEP has been a
common measure of student achievement across the country in
mathematics, reading, science, and many other subjects.
Depending on the assessment, NAEP report cards provide
national, state, and some district-level results, as well as results
for different demographic groups.
NAEP is a congressionally mandated project of the National
Center for Education Statistics (NCES), located within the U.S.
Department of Education’s Institute of Education Sciences.
NAEP data are also used in special studies conducted by NCES.
These have included comparisons of proficiency standards
across state assessments; insights from high school transcripts,
including courses taken and credits earned; and in-depth looks
at how different demographic groups perform across different
types of schools.
The National Assessment Governing Board, an independent,
bipartisan organization made up of governors, state school
superintendents, teachers, researchers, and representatives of
the general public, sets policy for NAEP.
How is NAEP different from state assessments?
States have their own assessments, which are designed to provide individual
student data about achievement based on different content standards, unique
to each state. NCES administers the same NAEP assessment in every state,
providing educators, policymakers, and parents with a common measure of
student achievement that allows for direct comparisons among states and
participating urban districts.

4th Grade Mathematics
Students use the online ruler to measure objects and then answer multiple-choice
questions in a grade 4 mathematics digitally based assessment administered on
a tablet.

What subjects does NAEP assess?
NAEP includes a range of subjects at grades 4, 8, and 12 to provide a
comprehensive look at the wide array of academic areas that are a part of
a student’s education. Subjects include civics, economics, geography,
mathematics, music and visual arts, reading, science, technology and engineering
literacy, U.S. history, and writing.

How are NAEP results reported?
NAEP results are reported for the nation and, in most cases, for states, as well as
for selected urban districts that participate in the Trial Urban District Assessment
(TUDA). Results are reported as scores and as percentages of students reaching
NAEP achievement levels—Basic, Proficient, and Advanced.
NAEP monitors overall educational progress for the nation, states, TUDA districts,
and for different groups of students, including students with disabilities and
English language learners. NAEP is not designed to provide results for individual
students or schools.

8th Grade Technology and Engineering Literacy
In 2014, NAEP administered the first-ever technology and engineering literacy
assessment on laptops. This question assessed grade 8 students’ understanding of
the recycling process and its impact on society.

How is technology being used to measure and
report student skills?
An increasing number of schools are making digital technologies an integral
component of the learning environment. To assess students in more
effective and engaging ways that mirror their classroom experiences, NAEP
assessments have transitioned from traditional paper-and-pencil to a
digital format.
To enhance the student experience, new interactive questions and features
immerse students in the same types of activities they encounter in digital
learning environments, which allow students to use multimedia to solve
real-world problems. In a digital environment, helpful tools and features are
built directly into the testing platform, making the assessment more accessible
than ever for students. Digitally based assessments also provide new types of
data that can deepen our understanding of what students know and are able
to do in various subjects.

12th Grade Science
Students can use an online slider to observe changes in a nuclear reaction and
then answer this multiple-choice question in a grade 12 science digitally based
assessment administered on a tablet.

Learn more about digitally based assessments here: http://nces.ed.gov/
nationsreportcard/dba

How are NAEP results used?
The NAEP website provides more extensive information about the
assessment: http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard
NAEP results are available on The Nation’s Report Card website:
http://nationsreportcard.gov
The NAEP website features many tools and applications designed to
provide quick and easy access to NAEP assessment data, examples of
the types of questions students answer, performance comparisons,
and more: http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/about/naeptools.aspx

Policymakers, researchers, and educators use NAEP results to inform educational
improvements across the nation, within states and TUDA districts, and for various
student groups. Parents, media, and the general public use NAEP results to
monitor educational progress in their communities and compare performance
with other regions of the country. NAEP also provides states with a benchmark to
target important efforts that raise the bar for student achievement and ensure
that students have equal opportunities to succeed.
Learn how NAEP data are used to inform policy and practice in different states:
https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/about/policy_practice.aspx

* The 4th grade and 12th grade questions are not released assessment questions, but represent what students might be asked
during a NAEP digitally based assessment. The 8th grade sample question was released from the 2014 NAEP technology and
engineering literacy assessment.

Appendix D1-1a: An Overview of NAEP for Private School

An Overview of NAEP

for Private Schools

What is NAEP?
The National Assessment of Educational Progress
(NAEP) is the largest nationally representative and
continuing assessment of what students in public and
private schools in the United States know and can do
in various subjects. Since 1969, NAEP has provided a
common measure of student achievement across the
country. The results are released as The Nation’s
Report Card. Results are generally reported for
private schools overall and for two groups of private
schools, Catholic and Other Private schools, provided
minimum participation benchmarks are met. NAEP is
a congressionally mandated project administered
by the National Center for Education Statistics
(NCES), located within the U.S. Department of
Education’s Institute of Education Sciences.

Why assess private schools?
Private schools have participated in NAEP for
decades and are an integral part of providing a
complete picture of education in the United States.
Private school data make an important contribution
to our understanding of the condition of education
in the United States and to future policy decisions.
Without the participation of private schools, there
would be no Nation’s Report Card. NAEP has
consistently demonstrated that the performance
of private school students compares favorably to
that of public school students.

NAEP special studies are conducted periodically
in addition to main assessments. They are
administered as part of NAEP and often involve
special data collection procedures in the field,
in-depth analyses of NAEP results, and evaluations
of various technical procedures. For more
information about NAEP special studies, visit
http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/studies.
The National Assessment Governing Board, which
sets NAEP policy, determines the assessment
schedule and what content should be measured.
To download a detailed PDF version of the
assessment schedule, please visit https://www.
nagb.org/about-naep/assessment-schedule.html.

What are NAEP digitally based assessments?
An increasing number of schools are making digital
tools an integral component of the learning
environment, reflecting that the knowledge and skills
needed for future postsecondary success involve the
use of new technologies. NAEP is evolving to address
this changing educational landscape through
its transition to digitally based assessments;
pencil-and-paper assessments are being replaced
by devices such as touchscreen tablets.

NAEP assessments are conducted in a range of
subjects at grades 4, 8, and 12 across the country.
Assessments are given most frequently in
mathematics, reading, science, and writing. Other
subjects, including civics, economics, geography,
music and visual arts, technology and engineering
literacy, and U.S. history, are assessed periodically.

Digitally based assessments allow NAEP to collect
new types of data that provide depth in our
understanding of what students know and can
do in various subjects. New technologies and
universal design features are improving NAEP’s
ability to offer accommodations to increase
student participation. In a digital environment,
features like adjusting font size and using a
highlighter tool are available to all students during
the test administration. To learn more about
digitally based assessments, visit http://nces.ed.

out of the classroom. Student survey questionnaires
take no more than 15 minutes to complete and are
administered at the end of the NAEP assessment.
To learn more about these questionnaires, visit http://
nces.ed. gov/nationsreportcard/bgquest.aspx.

Why is private school student participation
important?
The participation of all selected students enables
NAEP to provide the most accurate and representative
picture of student performance. NAEP uses a
carefully designed sampling procedure for the
assessment to be representative of public and
private schools and students throughout the
United States. Each participating student represents
hundreds of other students. These students
represent the geographic, racial, ethnic, and
socioeconomic diversity that is our nation’s student
body. Districts, states, policymakers, and researchers
all use NAEP results to assess student progress
and develop ways to improve education across
the country.

What are NAEP survey questionnaires?
NAEP survey questionnaires are voluntarily
completed by students, teachers, and principals
who participate in a NAEP assessment. Students
may answer as many questions as they like and
may skip any question by leaving a response blank.
NAEP survey questionnaires provide valuable
information about participating students’ educational
experiences and opportunities to learn both in and

3. Prepare and submit a student list (if requested, October–November).

NAEP requires a complete list of students in the selected grade(s). NAEP uses the list to draw a random
sample of students who will participate in the assessment and to collect demographic information.
The Submit Student List section will appear for schools that need to prepare and upload this list
in the fall. Individual student names, responses, and scores on NAEP are never reported. All of the
information provided by participants may be used only for statistical purposes and may not be
disclosed, or used, in identifiable form for any other purpose except as required by law (20 U.S.C.
§9573 and 6 U.S.C. §151). If you prefer, a NAEP representative will visit your school in January to
collect the data and make the preassessment arrangements.

4. Complete the tasks listed within
the Prepare for Assessment menu
(December–January).
If you submit your data electronically, the NAEP
representative responsible for administering NAEP
in your school will contact you in December and
discuss how to complete the following tasks under
the Prepare for Assessment menu (the student
data can be collected in person if you prefer):
Review student information and prepare for
the assessment of students with disabilities and
English learners (SD/EL).
Visit the Review and Verify List of Students
Selected for NAEP section to review the student
sample and identify any students who cannot take the
assessment. You will also need to review demographic
information and provide updates in case any
information is missing or inaccurate. To ensure that
NAEP reflects the educational progress of all students,
you will need to submit information in the Complete
SD/EL Student Information section or submit
information to the NAEP representative about how
SD/EL students will participate in the assessment and
the accommodations they will receive.

Promote the importance of NAEP with school staff
and students.
Teachers are essential for motivating students to do
their best on NAEP. Students selected to take NAEP
represent hundreds of students across the country,
so it is vital that they participate and do their best.
Online resources, short videos, and strategies for
promoting NAEP are all available in the Encourage
Participation section.
Update the student list to reflect January
2022 enrollment.
All eligible students must have an opportunity to be
selected. If you submit your student list electronically in
the fall, then you will visit the Update Student List
section and upload an Excel file of students currently
enrolled in the selected grade(s) or add new students
to the original list submitted in the fall. NAEP may
draw a random sample of newly identified students to
select students who were not on the original list. If
your NAEP representative collects the student data in
person, you can skip this step.

Inform parents/guardians of student participation.
By law, parents/guardians of students selected to
participate in NAEP must be notified in writing of
their child’s selection prior to the administration of
the assessment. An electronic copy of the Parent/
Guardian Notification Letter is available in the Notify
Parents section to download, print, and distribute.
Your NAEP representative can also make this letter
available if it is more convenient.
Manage the completion of questionnaires by
school staff.
You are responsible for managing the completion
of online survey questionnaires designed to provide
contextual information for the assessment results.
You can assign, email, and monitor questionnaires for
completion through the Manage Questionnaires section
of MyNAEP. If you prefer, your NAEP representative
can provide hardcopies of the questionnaires.
Plan assessment day logistics.
Assessment day details, including the location(s) and
start time(s) of the assessment, and how students and
teachers will be notified, need to be entered via the
Plan for Assessment Day section or discussed with
your NAEP representative.

The NAEP representative will contact you for the
preassessment review call to confirm information
entered into MyNAEP. Most preassessment review
calls are scheduled in January.

5. Support Assessment Day Activities
(1 week before the assessment).
Prior to the assessment day, you need to remind teachers
and students about the assessment and ensure that
students attend the sessions. Appointment cards can
be created and printed from the Support
Assessment Activities section. Your NAEP
representative can print these and send to you if you
prefer. You and the teachers of selected students are
encouraged to remain in the room during the
assessment. If attendance of sampled students is less
than 90 percent, a makeup session will be necessary,
and the NAEP representative will schedule another
date to administer the assessment to the students
who were absent.

6. Wrap Up (after the assessment).
Shred all confidential hardcopy materials at the end
of the school year.

Appendix D1-4: Facts for Teachers, Public Schools, and Private Schools

NAEP 2022 Facts for Teachers – OMB Review
[Quote]
“As an educator, I find the contextual information that NAEP provides to be particularly valuable. It
helps me take a closer look at the factors related to student achievement across the country.”
Ann M. Finch, Assessment Specialist, Arkansas Department of Education
What is NAEP?
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is an integral measure of academic progress over
time. It is the largest nationally representative and continuing assessment of what our nation’s students
know and can do in various subjects such as civics, mathematics, reading, science, technology and
engineering literacy, U.S. history, and writing. The program also provides valuable insights into students’
educational experiences and opportunities to learn in and outside of the classroom. Elected officials,
policymakers, and educators all use NAEP results to develop ways to improve education.
NAEP is a congressionally mandated program administered by the National Center for Education Statistics
(NCES), within the U.S. Department of Education and the Institute of Education Sciences.
What NAEP assessments will be administered in 2022?
The NAEP 2022 program will include grade-based assessmentsreferred to as main NAEP for grades 4
and 8, as well as the long-term trend assessment for [9-year-olds or 17-year-olds]. Students will complete
subject-area questions in civics, mathematics, reading, or U.S. history. Each student will be assessed in one
subject only.

Results will be released at the national, state, and select urban district levels for the main NAEP
mathematics and reading assessments at grades 4 and 8. National results will be released for the civics and
U.S. history assessments at grade 8 and the long-term trend assessment [at age 9 or age 17].

Students, teachers, and principals participating in main NAEP will also be asked to complete survey
questionnaires to provide a better understanding of factors that may be related to students’ learning.
Student survey questionnaires will provide valuable information about students’ opportunities to learn
both in and outside of the classroom, as well as how they have accessed learning during the COVID-19
pandemic.
While there will not be a teacher questionnaire for the long-term trend assessment, there will be a
questionnaire for principals that will be delivered in an online format; a paper-and-pencil version is also
available upon request.
What can teachers and students expect?
It takes approximately 2 hours for students to complete the main NAEP assessment and approximately 70
minutes to complete the long-term trend assessment. This includes transition time, directions and tutorials,
and completion of survey questionnaires. A broad range of accommodations are provided for students with
disabilities and English learners. Teachers do not need to prepare their students to take the assessment,
but they should encourage students to do their best.
Who will administer NAEP? What do schools need to provide on the day of the assessment?
NAEP representatives will administer the NAEP assessment and provide significant support to schools on
assessment day. They will wear necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow all schoolspecific health protocols. NAEP representatives will also bring all necessary materials and equipment,
including sanitized tablets with keyboards. Schools will only need to provide space for students to take the
assessment, desks or tables, and an adequate number of electrical outlets in the assessment location.
Schools will not need to provide internet access.
How are schools and students selected for NAEP?
Schools are selected as part of a carefully designed sampling process that ensures NAEP-selected schools
and students are representative of all schools and students across the United States.
How is NAEP different from our state assessment?
NAEP serves a different role than state assessments. While states have their own unique assessments with
different content standards, the same NAEP assessment is administered in every state, providing a
common measure of student achievement.
NAEP and Teachers
How are teachers essential partners in NAEP?
Schools and students selected to participate in NAEP represent schools and students across the country.
Teachers make an important contribution by encouraging their students to participate and to give their
best effort; this helps ensure that NAEP results provide the most accurate measure possible of student
achievement across the country. To learn more about NAEP and view FAQs for teachers, visit
https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/educators/.

Why are students, teachers, and principals asked to complete survey questionnaires?
In addition to subject-area questions, students participating in NAEP are asked to complete survey
questionnaires. Results from these questionnaires help put student achievement results into context, allow
for meaningful comparison between student groups, and offer important insights for educators,
policymakers, and researchers to better understand students’ educational experiences in the United States.
Teachers of students participating in the main NAEP assessments are also asked to complete survey
questionnaires. NAEP teacher survey questionnaires gather information on teacher training and
instructional practices. These questionnaires will be delivered via an online format, but teachers can
request a paper-and-pencil version.
Principals or school administrators of students participating in the main NAEP assessments are asked to
complete a survey questionnaire that provides information about school policies and characteristics. These
questionnaires will also be delivered via an online format, but a paper-and-pencil version is available upon
request.
To learn more about NAEP survey questionnaires and view student, teacher, and school questionnaires
from previous years, visit https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/experience/survey_questionnaires.aspx.
How can teachers use NAEP resources and data to help students?
You can use the NAEP Questions Tool (https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/nqt) to view released NAEP
items and create customized assessments for your classroom. You can compare your students’
performance with their peers in your state and across the nation. Teachers, students, and parents can
access information and also compare results for various demographic groups. Most released items include
a scoring guide, sample student responses, and performance data.
The NAEP Data Explorer (https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/ndecore) is a powerful tool that allows you to
examine the relationships between student performance and factors like instructional practices, school
resources, and more.
How do the NAEP online dashboards help teachers explore NAEP results and more?
The Achievement Gaps Dashboard lets users explore achievement gaps that reveal significant differences in
assessment scores between two groups of students (e.g., male and female students or White and Black
students). You can also examine the latest national results in all the NAEP subjects and students’
educational experiences by school type with the new Public, Private, and Charter Schools Dashboard.
View the Achievement Gaps Dashboard at https://www.
nationsreportcard.gov/dashboards/achievement_gaps.aspx.
The Public, Private, and Charter Schools Dashboard is available at https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/
dashboards/schools_dashboard.aspx.
The new Monthly School Survey Dashboard (https://ies.ed.gov/schoolsurvey/) offers a monthly snapshot of
learning opportunities (i.e., remote only, hybrid, or full-time in-person instruction) and attendance rates at
schools across the country during the COVID-19 pandemic. Survey results were collected from February
through June 2021.

How long has NAEP been around?
NAEP was first administered in 1969 to measure student achievement nationally. In 1990, NAEP was
administered at the state level for the first time. The NAEP Trial Urban District Assessment (TUDA) program,
which measures student achievement in some of the nation’s large urban districts, began in 2002. The
program has come to be recognized as the gold standard of large-scale assessments due to its high
technical quality and rigorous design and methodology.
NAEP Results
The results of NAEP are released as The Nation’s Report Card. Depending on the assessment, NAEP results
are available for the nation, states, and select urban districts that participate in TUDA. Results are also
available for different student groups based on factors such as race/ethnicity, gender, school location, and
more. NAEP is not designed to collect or report results for individual students, classrooms, or schools.
Within a school, just some of the student population participates, and student responses are combined
with those from other participating students to produce the results.
You can access data from previous assessments at https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/naepdata and
explore the most recent results at https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/.
As part of main NAEP, students in grades 4 and 8 are scheduled to be assessed at the national and state
levels in mathematics and reading every 2 years. Under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act,
districts and states that receive Title I funds are required to participate in these biennial assessments. Other
subjects are assessed periodically. NAEP long-term trend assessments allow the performance of today’s
students to be compared with students since the early 1970s and are administered periodically to 9-, 13-,
and 17-year-olds.
Recent NAEP Results
Results from the NAEP assessments are released as they become available, following comprehensive
scoring and analysis. National Indian Education Study (NIES) results and science results were both
released in May 2021; mathematics and reading results for twelfth-graders were released in October
2020; civics, geography, and U.S. history results were released in April 2020; mathematics and reading
results were released in October 2019; and technology and engineering literacy results were released in
April 2019. Below are highlights from these interactive reports, which are available at
www.nationsreportcard.gov.
2019 National Indian Education Study at Grades 4 and 8
The 2019 National Indian Education Study (NIES) surveyed students, teachers, and school principals in the
United States about the experiences of American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) students in grades 4 and 8.
Because AI/AN students’ experiences may vary depending on the types of schools they attend, results are
reported for three mutually exclusive categories of schools and for an overall category: low density public
schools (where less than 25 percent of all the students in the school were AI/AN); high density public
schools (where 25 percent or more of all the students in the school were AI/AN); Bureau of Indian
Education (BIE) schools; and all AI/AN students (includes all AI/AN students sampled throughout the nation
in public, private, BIE, and Department of Defense schools).
•

Most American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) students across grades 4 and 8 and school types
reported having at least “a little” knowledge of their AI/AN tribe or group. AI/AN fourth-grade

students reported similar extents of cultural knowledge across school types, but higher percentages
of AI/AN eighth-graders who attended BIE schools reported “some” or “a lot” of knowledge than
those in low (i.e., less than 25 percent AI/AN students) or high density (i.e., 25 percent or more
AI/AN students) public schools.
•

AI/AN students across grades and school types identified their family members as the most
common sources of knowledge on their AI/AN, histories, traditions, and languages—with teachers
being the second most commonly reported source of such knowledge.

•

AI/AN eighth-graders who attended BIE schools reported higher percentages of interest in reading
about cultures than those in low or high density public schools.

•

At both grades, AI/AN students who attended BIE schools reported more exposure to their Heritage
languages with their families and in school in general than students who attended low or high
density public schools.

While there was no significant change in the average mathematics score for twelfth-grade students
in comparison to 2005, scores were higher for several student groups. Student performance by
race/ethnicity showed that average mathematics scores in 2019 were higher than in 2005 for
White, Hispanic, and Asian/Pacific Islander students as well as for students of two or more races.

•

The average reading score for twelfth-grade students was 2 points lower in comparison to 2015 and 7
points lower when compared to the average score of the first reading assessment in 1992. Compared to
the first reading assessment in 1992, average reading scores at grade 12 were also lower for several
student groups in 2019. Scores in 2019 decreased for White and Black students, male and female
students, public school students, and students across parental education levels.

NAEP 2022 FACTS FOR TEACHERS IN PRIVATE SCHOOLS -TEXT ONLY REVIEW
I'm thankful for the opportunity for our school to participate in NAEP because I believe it leads to useful outcomes
for individual schools, private schools specifically, and education generally in our country. I would strongly
encourage all private schools to participate, if selected, as the data shared will be useful locally and nationally.
— Dr. James A. Thomas, President of Columbia Academy, Columbia, TN
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the largest continuing and nationally representative
assessment of what students in public and private schools know and can do in various subjects. First administered
in 1969, NAEP collects and reports information on student trends and performance and compares the achievement
of students in public schools with that of students in private schools. Private schools represent about 25 percent of
the schools in the nation, educate approximately 9 percent of the nation’s students, and are a critical component
of the NAEP program. Private school data are essential to providing a complete and accurate picture of education
in the United States and to informing future policy decisions. The results of NAEP are released to the public as The
Nation’s Report Card.

All About NAEP

As private school teachers, you are essential partners in NAEP. You make an important contribution by sharing
your class time and encouraging your students to participate and do their best. When students take part in NAEP
and give their best effort, we get the most accurate measure possible of student achievement across the country.
Teachers can use NAEP questions as a resource in the classroom. Teachers can use the NAEP Questions Tool at
http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/nqt to create online self-scoring tests for students and see how the
performance of students in private schools compares nationally with students in public school on specific items.
Released items generally come with a scoring guide, sample student responses, and performance data. Students
can try NAEP questions by visiting https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/sample_questions.aspx.
Teachers can watch the NAEP teacher video. The video provides an overview of the assessment as well as tips on
how to support students selected to participate. Watch the video at
http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/videos/teachervideo.
Teachers can also view the private school video. Teachers and heads of school describe their experiences with the
NAEP assessment and the value of NAEP to private schools in an online video, Private Schools and NAEP: A
National Conversation. Watch the video at
https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/participating/private_nonpublic.aspx.

Highlights of the NAEP 2022 Program

Visit for more information about NAEP COVID-19 protocols.
From January 24 to March 4, 2022, NAEP field staff will administer assessments in public and private schools across
the country. The assessment will be administered at grades 4 and 8 in mathematics and reading and in grade 8 in
civics and U.S. history. There will also be a long-term trend assessment that will assess age [age] students in
mathematics and reading from [date] to [date].
Students will take only one subject. NAEP representatives will bring all materials and equipment to the school on
assessment day. The total time away from the classroom will be approximately 2 hours, or in the case of students
assessed for long-term trend, 90 minutes. This includes transition time, directions and tutorials, and completion of
survey questions.

It’s important to know that…
No advance preparation is needed. No advance preparation for teachers or for students is necessary. Trained
NAEP representatives, employed by a contractor to the National Center for Education Statistics, administer NAEP.
32

Inclusion is essential. To ensure that student achievement is accurately reported, students with disabilities (SD)
and English language learners (ELL) are encouraged to participate in NAEP assessments. Many accommodations
are allowed during the assessment, such as extended time, breaks during the test, and a separate setting. SD and
ELL teachers who work with the students selected for the assessment are asked to provide information to
determine how these students will be assessed on NAEP.
NAEP data are used for statistical purposes only.* No one involved in administering NAEP keeps personal
information on teachers or students after the assessments are completed. There are no results for individual
students, classrooms, or schools.

How NAEP reports results
Since 1969, NAEP has produced many reports chronicling trends over time in student performance. Results for
private schools are generally reported as overall private school results and for two groups of private schools,
Catholic and other private schools.
NAEP also disseminates contextual information from data collected on student survey questionnaires. This
information can be used to inform parents, the public, and education policymakers about our students’
educational experiences inside and outside the classroom. You can access data from previous assessments at
https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/ndecore/xplore/nde, and explore the most recent results at
http://nationsreportcard.gov. For a quick, but detailed, look at results for private schools, explore the NAEP Private
School Quick Data tool at http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/about/private_school_quick_data.aspx.

Highlights of NAEP 2019 Mathematics and Reading
The NAEP 2019 mathematics and reading results include both achievement and survey questionnaire data for
students in grades 4 and 8 across the country. The national results combine data from students assessed in public
and private schools. Some highlights of these results are included.
Fourth-grade students were asked about their confidence in performing concrete mathematics-related tasks, such
as estimating the weight of five apples using pounds or finding how much carpet was needed to cover a floor when
given its length and width. Their responses were used to create a confidence index. About 47 percent of students
reported high levels of confidence, and 38 percent and 15 percent reported moderate or low levels, respectively.
Comparing this index to achievement, students reporting higher levels of confidence in their mathematics ability
scored higher in mathematics on average than those reporting lower levels.

[GRAPH 1, data source: https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/mathematics/survey-questionnaires/?grade=4 –must
credit “Nation’s Report Card;” scale score is a 0 to 500 scale]
The NAEP survey questionnaires ask about subject area knowledge, as well as technology both inside and outside
the classroom. Among eighth-graders assessed in reading, for instance, 89 percent reported having both internet
access and a computer or a tablet at home. Only 1 percent of students reported having neither. Those students
with both internet access and a computer or tablet at home scored higher on NAEP reading assessments in 2019.

[GRAPH 2, data source: https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/reading/survey-questionnaires/?grade=8 –must credit
“Nation’s Report Card”]
NAEP achievement results are also reported as percentiles. The percent of eighth-grade students assessed in
mathematics whose achievement fell below the 25th percentile and at or above the 75th percentile are compared
based on what math class they were taking during the school year they were assessed. The results show a larger
percentage of lower-performing students taking either an eighth-grade math course (78 percent versus 26
percent) or other math course (5 percent versus 3 percent). However, a larger share of higher-performing students
reported taking algebra I (56 percent versus 14 percent), geometry (13 percent versus 2 percent), or algebra II (3
percent versus 1 percent).

Appendix D1-5: Templates for State-Specific SD Inclusion Policy

NAEP 2022 Long-Term Trend Inclusion Policy Grades 4 and 8 Math and Reading Students with
Disabilities (SD)

The New Moldavia Department of Education expects that most students with disabilities will be
included on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). Only students who meet
(or met) participation criteria for the Name of Alternate Assessment based on Alternate
Achievement Standards may be excluded from any NAEP assessment. All other students
with disabilities should participate in NAEP with or without NAEP-allowed accommodations. If you
have questions about the NAEP accommodations, please contact NSC name, NAEP State
Coordinator at email address or phone number.
Several accommodations provided on the New Moldavia assessments are not necessary for the
NAEP digitally based assessments because they are available for all students through universal
design elements. The chart below is divided into three sections: (1) universal design elements that
are available to all students, (2) accommodations provided by the test delivery system, and
(3) accommodations provided outside the test delivery system. NAEP accommodations are only
allowed for a student on an Individualized Education Program (IEP) or Section 504 Plan.
Please keep in mind that NAEP does not produce results for individual students or schools, unlike
the New Moldavia state assessments. In other words, the NAEP assessments do not impose
consequences for the student or the school and are instead intended purely to provide a picture of
educational performance and progress.
Please note all assessments are not the same and are developed to measure specific constructs.
Therefore, NAEP may not allow or provide all accessibility features and accommodations the New
Moldavia state assessments allow. The following are the expectations for inclusion on NAEP:
1) For mathematics: manipulatives and multiplication charts are not allowed on the NAEP
assessment.
2) For reading: Read Aloud Occasional or Most or All is not allowed on the NAEP assessment.
The NAEP reading assessment measures reading comprehension by asking students to read
passages written in English and to answer questions about what they have read. Because
this is an assessment of reading comprehension and not listening comprehension, NAEP
does not allow passages or items to be read aloud to students as testing accommodations.
3) Students who receive multiple-day testing on the state assessments should take the NAEP
assessments in 1 day with breaks as needed. NAEP is much shorter than most state
assessments, so multiple-day testing is not supported.
4) Graphic organizers are not allowed on the NAEP assessment.

NAEP 2022 Long-Term Trend Inclusion Policy English Learners (EL) Age 9 Math and Reading

The New Moldavia Department of Education expects that most English learners will be included on
the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). Only English learners who have been
enrolled in U.S. schools for less than one (1) full academic year before the NAEP
assessment and cannot access NAEP may be excluded from any NAEP assessment. All
other English learners should participate in NAEP with or without NAEP accommodations. If you
have questions about the NAEP accommodations, please contact NSC name, NAEP State
Coordinator at email address or phone number.
Several accommodations provided on the New Moldavia assessments are not necessary for the
NAEP assessments because they are available for all students through universal design elements.
The chart below is divided into two sections: (1) universal design elements that will be available to
all students and (2) accommodations. NAEP accommodations are only allowed for English
learners. The person most knowledgeable about the student’s English proficiency should determine
how the student should be included on NAEP.
Please keep in mind that NAEP does not produce results for individual students or schools, unlike
the New Moldavia state assessments. In other words, the NAEP assessments do not impose
consequences for the student or the school and are instead intended purely to provide a picture of
educational performance and progress.
Please note all assessments are not the same and are developed to measure specific constructs.
Therefore, NAEP may not allow or support all accessibility features and accommodations of the New
Moldavia state assessments. The following are the expectations for inclusion on NAEP:
1) For reading: Read Aloud Occasional or Most or all is not allowed on the NAEP assessment.
The NAEP long-term trend (LTT) reading assessment measures reading comprehension by
asking students to read passages written in English and to answer questions about what
they have read. Because this is an assessment of reading comprehension and not listening
comprehension, NAEP does not allow passages or items to be read aloud to students as
testing accommodations.
2) For reading: bilingual dictionaries (in any language) are not allowed on the NAEP
assessment, because the NAEP LTT reading assessment measures reading comprehension in
English.
3) Students who receive multiple-day testing on the state assessments should take the NAEP
assessments in 1 day with breaks as needed. NAEP is much shorter than the state
assessments, so multiple-day testing is not supported. Students complete three 15-minute
sections in mathematics or reading and a 5-minute student questionnaire on student
experiences inside and outside of the classroom.
4) Graphic organizers are not allowed on the NAEP assessment.

Appendix D1-3-S-PR (Spanish version): Facts for Teachers, Puerto Rico

Información para maestros sobre NAEP de 2022 en Puerto Rico
[Quote]
“Como docente, considero que la información contextual que NAEP proporciona es particularmente valiosa.
Me ayuda a analizar más detenidamente los factores relacionados con los logros de los estudiantes en todo
el país”.
Ann M. Finch, especialista en evaluaciones, Departamento de Educación de Arkansas
¿Qué es NAEP?
La Evaluación Nacional del Progreso Educativo (NAEP, por sus siglas en inglés) es una medida integral del
progreso educativo a lo largo del tiempo. Es la evaluación continua y nacionalmente representativa más grande
que mide lo que los estudiantes de nuestro país saben y pueden hacer en diferentes materias, tales como
educación cívica, matemáticas, lectura, ciencias, alfabetización tecnológica y en ingeniería, historia de EE. UU. y
escritura. El programa también proporciona información valiosa sobre las experiencias educativas de los
estudiantes y las oportunidades de aprendizaje dentro y fuera del salón de clases. Los funcionarios electos, los
legisladores y los educadores usan los resultados de NAEP para desarrollar maneras de mejorar la educación.
NAEP es un programa autorizado por el Congreso y administrado por el Centro Nacional para Estadísticas de la
Educación (NCES, por sus siglas en inglés), parte del Departamento de Educación de Estados Unidos y el Instituto
de Ciencias de la Educación.
¿Qué evaluaciones de NAEP se administrarán en Puerto Rico en 2022?
Las evaluaciones de matemáticas de NAEP se administrarán en tabletas a los estudiantes de 4.° y 8.° grado entre
el 24 de enero y el 4 de marzo de 2022. Los resultados se darán a conocer a nivel nacional, estatal y para
determinados distritos urbanos (incluyendo Puerto Rico). A los estudiantes, maestros y directores que participan
en NAEP también se les pedirá que completen cuestionarios de contexto para comprender mejor los factores que
pueden estar relacionados con el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Los cuestionarios de contexto para estudiantes
proporcionarán información importante sobre las oportunidades de aprendizaje que tuvieron los estudiantes,
tanto dentro como fuera del salón de clases, y cómo han accedido a la educación durante la pandemia del COVID19.
¿Qué pueden esperar los maestros y los estudiantes?
A los estudiantes les toma aproximadamente 2 horas completar la evaluación de NAEP. Esto incluye el tiempo de
transición, instrucciones y tutoriales y el tiempo necesario para completar los cuestionarios de contexto. Se ofrece
una amplia gama de acomodos para los estudiantes con impedimentos y para aprendices del español. Los
maestros no necesitan preparar a sus estudiantes para que tomen la evaluación, pero sí deben motivarlos a que
hagan su mejor esfuerzo.
¿Quién administrará NAEP? ¿Qué deben proporcionar las escuelas el día de la evaluación?
Los representantes de NAEP administrarán la evaluación y proporcionarán un importante apoyo a su escuela el
día de la evaluación. Ellos llevarán el equipo de protección personal (EPP) necesario y seguirán todos los
protocolos sanitarios específicos de la escuela. Los representantes de NAEP también llevarán todos los materiales
y equipos necesarios, incluyendo tabletas con teclados que han sido desinfectadas. Las escuelas solo tendrán que
proporcionar espacio para que los estudiantes tomen la evaluación, pupitres o mesas y una cantidad adecuada de
enchufes eléctricos en el lugar de la evaluación. Las escuelas no tendrán que proporcionar acceso a Internet.

¿Cómo se seleccionan las escuelas y los estudiantes para NAEP?
Las escuelas son seleccionadas como parte de un proceso de muestreo cuidadosamente diseñado que garantiza
que las escuelas y los estudiantes seleccionados para NAEP representan a todas las escuelas y estudiantes en
Puerto Rico y en Estados Unidos.
¿En qué se diferencia NAEP de nuestra evaluación estatal?
NAEP cumple una función diferente a la de las evaluaciones estatales. Si bien cada estado tiene su propia y única
evaluación, con diferentes estándares de contenido, la misma evaluación NAEP se administra en todos los
estados, proporcionando una medida común de los logros de los estudiantes.
NAEP y los maestros
¿De qué manera los maestros son aliados fundamentales para NAEP?
Las escuelas y los estudiantes seleccionados para participar en NAEP representan a las escuelas y a los estudiantes
de todo el país. Los maestros contribuyen de manera importante al motivar a sus estudiantes a que participen y
que hagan su mejor esfuerzo. Esto ayuda a asegurar que los resultados de NAEP proporcionen la medición más
exacta posible de los logros en todo el país. Para más información acerca de NAEP y para ver las Preguntas
Frecuentes para maestros (en inglés), visite la página: https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/educators/.
¿Por qué se les pide a los estudiantes, maestros y directores escolares que completen cuestionarios de
contexto?
Además de las preguntas correspondientes a la materia, a los estudiantes que participan en NAEP se les pide que
completen cuestionarios de contexto. Los resultados de estos cuestionarios ayudan a contextualizar los logros de
los estudiantes, permiten una comparación significativa entre grupos de estudiantes, y les ofrece a los
educadores, legisladores e investigadores perspectivas importantes para que comprendan mejor las experiencias
educativas de los estudiantes en Estados Unidos.
A los maestros de los estudiantes que participan en NAEP también se les pedirá que completen cuestionarios de
contexto. Dichos cuestionarios para maestros recopilan información sobre la capacitación de los docentes y las
prácticas de enseñanza. Estos cuestionarios se administrarán mediante un formato en línea, pero los maestros
pueden solicitar una versión en papel.
A los directores o administradores escolares se les pide que completen un cuestionario de contexto que
proporciona información sobre las políticas y características de las escuelas. Estos cuestionarios también se
administrarán mediante un formato en línea, pero también hay una versión en papel disponible a solicitud.
Para conocer más acerca de los cuestionarios de contexto de NAEP y para ver los cuestionarios para estudiantes,
maestros y escuelas administrados en años anteriores (en inglés), visite la página
https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/experience/survey_questionnaires.aspx.
¿Cómo pueden los maestros usar los recursos y los datos de NAEP para ayudar a los estudiantes?
Puede usar la herramienta NAEP Questions Tool (https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/nqt) para ver las
preguntas de NAEP publicadas y para crear evaluaciones personalizadas para su salón de clases. Puede comparar
el rendimiento de sus estudiantes con el de otros estudiantes en su estado y en todo el país. Los maestros,
estudiantes y padres de familia pueden acceder a la información y comparar los resultados de varios grupos
demográficos. La mayoría de las preguntas publicadas incluyen una guía de puntuación, ejemplos de respuestas
de los estudiantes e información sobre el rendimiento (en inglés).

El explorador de datos, NAEP Data Explorer, (https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/ndecore) es una poderosa
herramienta que permite examinar las relaciones entre el rendimiento de los estudiantes y factores tales como las
prácticas de enseñanza y los recursos escolares, entre otros (en inglés).
¿De qué manera los paneles de control en línea de NAEP ayudan a los maestros a explorar los resultados de la
evaluación y más?
El Panel de Control de Disparidad en el Rendimiento les permite a los usuarios explorar disparidades en los logros
que revelan diferencias significativas en las puntuaciones de las evaluaciones entre dos grupos de estudiantes (p.
ej., entre estudiantes hombres y mujeres o entre estudiantes blancos y afroamericanos). Puede también revisar
los resultados nacionales más recientes en todas las materias de NAEP y las experiencias educativas de los
estudiantes según el tipo de escuela a través del nuevo Panel de Control de Escuelas Públicas, Privadas y
Semiautónomas (Charter).
Vea el Panel de Control de Disparidad en el Rendimiento (en inglés) en la página https://www.
nationsreportcard.gov/dashboards/achievement_gaps.aspx.
El Panel de Control de Escuelas Públicas, Privadas y Semiautónomas (Charter) (en inglés) está disponible en
https://www.nationsreportcard.gov/ dashboards/schools_dashboard.aspx.
El nuevo Panel de Control de la Encuesta para la Escuela (https://ies.ed.gov/schoolsurvey/) ofrece un panorama
mensual de las oportunidades de aprendizaje (es decir, enseñanza virtual solamente, híbrida o a tiempo completo
y en persona) y las tasas de asistencia en las escuelas en todo el país durante la pandemia del COVID-19. Los
resultados de la encuesta se recopilaron de febrero a junio de 2021.
¿Desde cuándo existe NAEP?
NAEP se administró por primera vez en 1969 para medir el rendimiento de los estudiantes a nivel nacional. En
1990, NAEP se administró por primera vez a nivel estatal. El programa de la Evaluación Piloto de Distritos Urbanos
(TUDA, por sus siglas en inglés), que mide los logros de los estudiantes en algunos de los distritos urbanos más
grandes del país, comenzó en 2002. El programa es reconocido como el estándar de oro de las evaluaciones a
gran escala debido a su alta calidad técnica y a su riguroso diseño y metodología.
Los resultados de NAEP
Los resultados de NAEP se publican en un informe llamado la Libreta de Calificaciones de la Nación. Dependiendo
de la evaluación, los resultados de NAEP están disponibles para la nación, los estados y determinados distritos
urbanos que participan en TUDA. También hay resultados disponibles para diferentes grupos de estudiantes con
base en factores como la raza/grupo étnico, el género y la ubicación de la escuela, entre otros. NAEP no está
diseñada para recopilar o informar los resultados individuales de estudiantes, salones de clase o escuelas. En una
escuela, solamente algunos de los estudiantes participan y sus respuestas se combinan con las de otros
estudiantes participantes para producir los resultados.
Puede acceder a datos de evaluaciones anteriores (en inglés) en la página
https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/naepdata y explorar los resultados más recientes en
https://www.nationsreportcard.gov.
En Puerto Rico, los estudiantes de 4.° y 8.° grado están programados para ser evaluados en matemáticas cada dos
años. Conforme a la Ley de Educación Primaria y Secundaria, los distritos y estados que reciben financiación del
Título I deben participar en estas evaluaciones cada dos años.
Los resultados de las evaluaciones de NAEP se publican tan pronto como están disponibles, después de una
puntuación y análisis integrales. Los resultados de matemáticas para los estudiantes de 4.° y 8.° grado en
69

Puerto Rico se publicaron en octubre de 2019. A continuación se incluyen puntos destacables de estos
informes interactivos, que están disponibles en www.nationsreportcard.gov.

Resultados recientes en Puerto Rico

[Quote]
“El equipo de NAEP que vino a nuestra escuela hizo que el proceso de la evaluación transcurriera sin
problemas. Todos los miembros del equipo trabajaron como docentes anteriormente y tuvieron
interacciones positivas con nuestros estudiantes. La evaluación digital que tomaron nuestros estudiantes los
mantuvo participando activamente a lo largo de la sesión”.
Kimberly Wilborn, orientadora académica, Escuela Secundaria Sandburg, Escuelas Públicas del Condado de
Fairfax, Alexandria, Virginia

Appendix D1-4-S-PR (Spanish version): Templates for State-Specific
SD Inclusion Policy, Puerto Rico (New)

El Departamento de Educación de Puerto Rico espera que la mayoría de los estudiantes aprendices
del español (AE) se incluyan en la Evaluación Nacional del Progreso Educativo (NAEP, por sus siglas
en inglés). Únicamente se pueden excluir de NAEP a los estudiantes aprendices del
español que han estado matriculados en una escuela en Puerto Rico por menos de 1 año
académico completo antes de la evaluación de NAEP y que no pueden tener acceso a
NAEP. Los demás estudiantes aprendices del español deben participar en NAEP con o sin los
acomodos permitidos por NAEP. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre los acomodos de NAEP, por favor
comuníquese con NSC name, Coordinador(a) Estatal de NAEP escribiendo a email address o
llamando al phone number.
Varios acomodos que se facilitan en las evaluaciones en Puerto Rico no son necesarios en las
evaluaciones de NAEP ya que están disponibles para todos los estudiantes mediante elementos de
diseño universal. La tabla a continuación se divide en tres secciones: (1) elementos de diseño
universal que estarán disponibles para todos los estudiantes, (2) acomodos facilitados por el
sistema de presentación de pruebas y (3) acomodos facilitados fuera del sistema de
presentación de pruebas. Los acomodos de NAEP únicamente se permiten para los estudiantes
aprendices del español.
Recuerde que NAEP no produce resultados para estudiantes o escuelas a nivel individual, a
diferencia de las evaluaciones estatales de Puerto Rico. En otras palabras, las evaluaciones de
NAEP no imponen consecuencias ni para el estudiante ni para la escuela, en cambio, están dirigidas
puramente a proporcionar una perspectiva del desempeño y progreso educativos.
Por favor, tenga en cuenta que todas las evaluaciones no son idénticas y que se crean para medir
constructos específicos. Por lo tanto, es posible que NAEP no ofrezca todas las funciones de
accesibilidad y los acomodos que se permiten en las evaluaciones estatales de Puerto Rico. Las
expectativas de inclusión de NAEP son:
1) Los estudiantes que presentan las evaluaciones estatales durante varios días deben tomar
las evaluaciones de NAEP en un día y con descansos según sea necesario. NAEP es mucho
más corta que la mayoría de las evaluaciones estatales, por ello no se ofrece la opción de
presentar la evaluación en varios días.

What Is NAEP?
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the
largest continuing and nationally representative assessment of
what our nation’s students know and can do in core subjects.
NAEP is congressionally mandated, and was first administered
in 1969 to measure student achievement nationally. Teachers,
principals, parents, policymakers, and researchers all use
NAEP results to assess progress and develop ways to improve
education in the United States.
For more information, visit http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard
or contact the NAEP help desk at 1-800-283-NAEP (6237)
or by email at [email protected].

Appendix D1-7-S- NAEP Overview Brochure in Spanish

¿Por qué es importante la participación de los
estudiantes?
NAEP evalúa a una muestra de estudiantes procedentes de todo el país que sea
representativa de todos los estudiantes de los Estados Unidos. Los estudiantes
seleccionados representan la diversidad geográfica, racial, étnica y
socioeconómica del país. La participación de cada estudiante es fundamental
para proporcionar un panorama preciso y completo del desempeño estudiantil y
para garantizar que los legisladores, investigadores y educadores tengan datos
fiables con que desarrollar mejoras a la educación.

¿Qué pueden esperar los estudiantes y las escuelas
cuando participan en NAEP?
La evaluación de NAEP se administra a los estudiantes durante el horario escolar
normal. Cada estudiante es evaluado en una materia. A los estudiantes les toma
de 90 a 120 minutos completar la evaluación, incluyendo el tiempo para
completar un cuestionario de contexto.

U.S. Department of Education
NCES 2019-147

El día de la evaluación, los representantes de NAEP llevarán todos los materiales
necesarios a las escuelas, incluyendo tabletas o computadoras portátiles para las
evaluaciones digitales.
Se proporcionan acomodos, según sea necesario, para los estudiantes con
impedimentos o para los estudiantes que están aprendiendo el idioma inglés
(ELL) (y para NAEP en Puerto Rico incluir a estudiantes con limitaciones
lingüísticas en español [ELLE]).

Visión General
de NAEP

Las respuestas de los estudiantes en NAEP son privadas y la privacidad de cada
escuela y alumno participante es esencial.

¿Qué otros datos se recopilan durante la evaluación
de NAEP?
NCES incluye cuestionarios de contexto como parte de NAEP para recopilar
información que da contexto a los resultados. Hay tres tipos de cuestionarios de
contexto:
Los estudiantes completan cuestionarios que proporcionan información sobre
sus oportunidades de aprendizaje dentro y fuera del aula, sus experiencias
educativas y una variedad de otros temas. Por ejemplo, el nivel socioeconómico y
el uso de la tecnología. Los estudiantes pueden omitir cualquier pregunta
dejando la respuesta en blanco.
Los maestros que enseñan la materia que se está administrando en la
evaluación, completan cuestionarios que recopilan información sobre
capacitaciones de maestros y prácticas de enseñanza.
Los cuestionarios escolares, generalmente completados por el director o
subdirector, recopilan información sobre las políticas y características de la
escuela.
Conozca más acerca de estos cuestionarios aquí (en inglés): http://nces.ed.gov/
nationsreportcard/bgquest.aspx

ies.ed.gov

Toda la información que proporcionen los participantes podrá usarse únicamente con fines estadísticos y no podrá darse a conocer o
usarse ni para identificarlos ni para cualquier otro propósito salvo aquel requerido legalmente (20 U.S.C. §9573 y 6 U.S.C. §151). Por ley,
todos los empleados del Centro Nacional de Estadísticas de la Educación (NCES, por sus siglas en inglés) al igual que todo representante
del mismo, tales como contratistas y coordinadores de NAEP, han hecho un juramento y están sujetos a encarcelamiento hasta por 5
años, una multa de hasta $250,000 dólares o ambas cosas, si intencionadamente dan a conocer CUALQUIER información de
identificación de los participantes. El envío de información de los participantes por vía electrónica será monitoreado por empleados y
contratistas federales para detectar virus, programas maliciosos (malware) y otras amenazas conforme a la Ley de Mejoramiento de la
Seguridad Cibernética de 2015. La información recolectada se combinará para elaborar informes estadísticos.

¿Qué es NAEP?
La Evaluación Nacional de Progreso Educativo (NAEP, por sus siglas
en inglés), también conocida como la Libreta de Calificaciones de la
Nación, es la evaluación continua y nacionalmente representativa
más grande acerca de lo que los estudiantes en las escuelas públicas
y privadas en los Estados Unidos saben y pueden hacer en diferentes
materias. Desde 1969, NAEP ha proporcionado una medida común
de los logros estudiantiles de todo el país en matemáticas, lectura,
ciencias y muchas otras materias. Dependiendo de la evaluación, las
libretas de calificaciones de NAEP proporcionan resultados a nivel
nacional, estatal y de algunos distritos, así como también para
diferentes grupos demográficos.
NAEP es un proyecto del Centro Nacional para Estadísticas de la
Educación (NCES, por sus siglas en inglés), parte del Instituto de
Ciencias de la Educación del Departamento de Educación de Estados
Unidos, y autorizado por el Congreso. Los datos de NAEP también se
usan en estudios especiales realizados por NCES. Estos han incluido
comparaciones de estándares de competencia en evaluaciones
estatales; información procedente de los certificados académicos de
las escuelas secundarias, incluyendo los cursos tomados y los
créditos obtenidos; y análisis a fondo del desempeño de diferentes
grupos demográficos en diferentes tipos de escuelas.
La Junta Regidora de la Evaluación Nacional, una organización
bipartidista independiente conformada por gobernadores,
superintendentes de escuelas estatales, maestros, investigadores y
representantes del público en general, establece las normas de NAEP.

¿En qué se diferencia NAEP de las evaluaciones
estatales?
Cada estado tiene sus propias evaluaciones, que están diseñadas para
proporcionar información individual acerca de sus logros basados en distintos
estándares de contenido, únicas para cada estado. NCES administra la misma
evaluación de NAEP en cada estado, lo cual les proporciona a los educadores,
legisladores y padres de familia una medida común de los logros estudiantiles
que permite hacer comparaciones entre los estados y distritos urbanos
participantes.

El sitio Web de NAEP proporciona información más detallada acerca
de la evaluación (en inglés): http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard
Los resultados de NAEP están disponibles en el sitio Web de la Libreta
de Calificaciones de la Nación (en inglés): http://nationsreportcard.gov
El sitio Web de NAEP ofrece muchas herramientas y aplicaciones
diseñadas para proporcionar un acceso rápido y fácil a los datos de la
evaluación de NAEP, ejemplos de los tipos de preguntas que responden
los estudiantes, comparaciones de rendimiento y mucho más (en
inglés): http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/about/naeptools.asp

¿Qué materiales evalúa NAEP?
NAEP incluye una variedad de materias en los grados 4 o , 8 o y 12o para
proporcionar una visión integral de la amplia gama de áreas académicas que
forman parte de la educación de un alumno. Las materias incluyen educación
cívica, economía, geografía, matemáticas, música y artes visuales, lectura,
ciencias, tecnología e ingeniería, historia de los Estados Unidos y escritura.

¿Cómo se reportan los resultados de NAEP?
Los resultados de NAEP son reportados para la nación y, en la mayoría de los
casos, para los estados y para los distritos urbanos seleccionados que participan
en la Evaluación Piloto de Distritos Urbanos (TUDA, por sus siglas en inglés). Los
resultados se reportan como puntajes y porcentajes de los estudiantes que
alcanzan los niveles de logros de NAEP: Básico, Competente y Avanzado.

A continuación, se incluyen dos ejemplos de los tipos de preguntas y características
de NAEP que verán los estudiantes cuando participen en pruebas digitales.
Matemáticas de 4 o grado
En una evaluación digital de 4 o grado que se administra en una tableta, los
estudiantes pueden usar su dedo o un lápiz óptico para seleccionar las respuestas
en la pantalla táctil.

NAEP monitorea el progreso educativo general a nivel nacional, estatal y de los
distritos de TUDA y para diferentes grupos de estudiantes, incluyendo los
estudiantes con impedimentos y a estudiantes que están aprendiendo el idioma
inglés (ELL) (y para NAEP en Puerto Rico incluir a estudiantes con limitaciones
lingüísticas en español [ELLE]). NAEP no está diseñada para proporcionar los
resultados individuales de estudiantes o escuelas.

¿Cómo se está utilizando la tecnología para medir e
informar las destrezas de los estudiantes?
Una cantidad creciente de escuelas están haciendo de las tecnologías digitales un
componente esencial del entorno de aprendizaje. Para evaluar a los estudiantes
de maneras más efectivas e interesantes que reflejen sus experiencias en el salón
de clases, las evaluaciones de NAEP han hecho la transición del formato
tradicional de papel y lápiz a un formato digital.
Para mejorar la experiencia del estudiante, las nuevas preguntas y características
interactivas permiten que los estudiantes participen plenamente en los mismos
tipos de actividades que encuentran en entornos de aprendizaje digital, lo que les
permite usar multimedia para resolver problemas del mundo real. En un entorno
digital, se integran directamente en la plataforma de evaluación herramientas y
características útiles que la hacen más accesible que antes para los estudiantes.
Las evaluaciones digitales también proporcionan nuevos tipos de datos que
pueden profundizar nuestra comprensión de lo que los estudiantes saben y
pueden hacer en diferentes materias.

Matemáticas de 8 o grado
En una evaluación digital de 8 o grado administrada en una tableta, los
estudiantes pueden utilizar una calculadora digital para contestar preguntas
de opción múltiple.

Obtenga más información acerca de las evaluaciones digitales aquí
(en inglés): http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/dba

¿Cómo se utilizan los resultados de NAEP?
Los legisladores, investigadores y educadores usan los resultados de NAEP para
desarrollar mejoras educativas en todo el país, en los estados y distritos TUDA, y
para varios grupos de estudiantes. Los padres de familia, los medios de
comunicación y el público usan los resultados de NAEP para monitorear el
progreso educativo en sus comunidades y para comparar el rendimiento con el de
otras regiones del país. NAEP también les proporciona a los estados un punto de
referencia para direccionar esfuerzos importantes que elevan los estándares de
desempeño estudiantil y garantizan que los estudiantes tengan igualdad de
oportunidades para ser exitosos.
