BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL

OF THE UNITED STATES


The National

Of Education


Assessment

d1 Progress:


Its Results Need To

Be Made More Useful

National Center for Education Statistics
Department of Health, Education, and Welfare


The National Assessment of Educational Prog-
ress is a project which annually surveys the
knowledge, skills, and attitudes of young
Americans. Its basic mission is to provide
information useful to educational decision-
makers and practitioners. The project has con-
tributed to American education, but its assess-
ment results have been of limited usefulness.
To make the project's results more useful, the
Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare
should redirect the project by (1) identifying
informational and other needs of decision-
makers, (2) determining the feasibility and
cost effectiveness of alternative approaches to
satisfy those needs, and (3) deciding on the
assessment approach to be used.
