NAEP Scoring of Eighth-Grade Informative Writing.
White, Sheida; Vanneman, Alan
NAEPfacts, v5 n2 Nov 2000
The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) 1998 Writing Assessment measured student writing performance at the 4th, 8th, and 12th grades. Scoring guides for three different writing purposes for each grade allowed scorers to objectively evaluate students' work. This issue of NAEPfacts includes an 8th-grade informative writing scoring guide, along with samples of student work at each of six levels of performance. (Author/RS)
