systems clearance.

Responses: 33,927.

Abstract: The National Assessment of
Educational Progress (NAEP) is a
federally authorized survey of student
achievement at grades 4, 8, and 12 in
various subject areas, such as
mathematics, reading, writing, science,
U.S. history, civics, geography,
economics, and the arts. In the current
legislation that reauthorized NAEP (20
U.S.C. 9622), Congress again mandated
the collection of national education
survey data through a national
assessment program. This request is an
information collection that falls under
the approved systems clearance, 1850–
0790. The 2014 Wave 1 submittal
contains the following:
• the grades 4, 8, and 12 core
(demographic) student questions,
• the grade 8 civics, geography, and
U.S. history subject-specific student
questions,
• the grades 4, 8, and 12 pilot science
subject-specific student questions,
• the grades 4 and 8 teacher
questionnaires, and
• the grades 4, 8, and 12 school
questionnaires.
The 2014 submittal is divided into
two waves to meet scheduling and
question development requirements.
The first wave contains the core, social
studies (civics, geography, U.S. history),
and science (paper-and-pencil)
descriptions, burden, and
questionnaires. Wave 2 will contain
technology and engineering literacy
(TEL) and science ICT (interactive
computer tasks) descriptions, burden,
and materials, as well as information
regarding school coordinator activities,
including the collection of information
on students with disabilities (SD) and
English language learners (ELL). The
purpose of NAEP is to collect and report
assessment data on student achievement
in the subject areas assessed for use in
monitoring educational progress. In
addition to reporting overall results of
student performance and achievement,
NAEP also reports student performance
results for various subgroups of students
and on various educational factors.
