Aligning Science Standards: Arkansas and the 2009 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP)

Region:

Southwest

Description:

This policy research document is intended for Arkansas policymakers to use when examining possible changes to the Arkansas state assessment's alignment with the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). The 2009 NAEP test is not yet in existence, so the purpose of this report is to give policymakers a headstart in determining where they might, if they so decide, begin to make changes in their assessment standards and create test specifications to develop an assessment system more closely aligned with that used for the NAEP.
