National Assessments of Educational Achievement Series

The READ Trust Fund supported the publication of a five-volume series on key concepts in national assessments of student achievement levels. This series introduces key concepts in national assessments of student achievement levels, from policy issues to address when designing and carrying out assessments through test development, sampling, data cleaning, statistics, report writing, and the use of results to improve education quality. The entire series was translated into French, Portuguese, and Russian to facilitate its use in READ Trust Fund- and other World Bank-recipient countries. Russia’s Center for International Cooperation in Education Development [CICED] oversaw the translations into Russian.
