Description

The 2005 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP 2005) is a study that is part of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) program; program data is available since 1990 at http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/naepdata/. NAEP 2005 (http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/) is a cross-sectional survey that assesses what America's students know and can do in various subject areas. The study was conducted using computer-based assessment of students. Students in grade 4, 8, and 12 were sampled. NAEP 2005 assessments consist of national and state assessments in mathematics, reading, and science. The study��s response rate was between 84 and 99 percent. Key statistics produced from NAEP 2005 are results on subject-matter achievement, instructional experiences, and school environment for populations of students (e.g., all fourth-graders) and groups within those populations (e.g., female students, Hispanic students).
