TitleNAEP Releases New Web Report on Arts Assessment
Body
From:

NCES has just released, Developing an Arts Assessment: Some
Selected Strategies, a new report from the National Assessment of
Educational Progress.

This web-only publication that can be found at:
http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/pubs/strategies/

presents lessons learned from the 1997 NAEP arts assessment. The report describes six strategies for creating an effective arts assessment, drawing on arts tasks at all three grade levels in dance, music, theater, and the visual arts.

Please note that copies are still available of an earlier report, the
NAEP 1997 Arts CD-ROM (NCES 1999-485), a multimedia publication that
contains the full text of the NAEP 1997 Arts Report Card, plus numerous examples of eighth-graders' work, along with explanations of scoring and other additional information. Call ED Pubs toll-free at 877-433-7827 for a copy.
