IU-NAEP Project

National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP) is a collaborative project of the NCTM and the IU Mathematics Education Faculty. IU-NAEP prepares interpretive reports of data from various NAEP mathematics assessments, and creates materials for teacher professional development and teacher use in mathematics classroom, which focus on the interpretive reports.

The purpose of the Indiana University/NCTM NAEP Project is to undertake a three-year effort related to several NAEP assessments (viz., Trend NAEP, State NAEP, and the 5th, 6th, 7,th and 8th Main NAEP mathematics assessments) that includes many of the same features of past NCTM reports, as well as a new materials development component. Specifically, this project will have two primary foci. Focus I: Preparation of interpretive reports of data from various NAEP mathematics assessments, and Focus II: Creation of materials for teacher professional development and teacher use in mathematics classrooms.
