NAEP Facts, v3 n2 Sep 1998
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) continuously monitors the knowledge, skills, and performance of the nation's children and youth in a variety of academic subjects. Data from the NAEP 1996 Long-Term Mathematics Assessment show a positive linear trend for all three age groups since the first assessment in 1973, indicating improving scores over time. All subgroups, including blacks and Hispanics, showed positive linear trends as well, at all three age levels. (ASK)
