Patrick, John J.
Since its inception by the United States Congress in 1969, the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) has collected information about what U.S. students know and can achieve in core subjects of the school curriculum. The U.S. history NAEP assessments were conducted in 1986, 1988, 1994, and 2001. This digest discusses: (1) the framework of the 2001 NAEP in U.S. history; (2) the assessment procedures; and (3) the findings of this national assessment of achievement in U.S. history by students at grades 4, 8, and 12.
