Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Across both grades, 7 TUDA districts had higher mathematics scores versus 1 increase in reading at grade 8, and most score declines were seen for grade 8 reading. → Results from the 2019 Mathematics and Reading Assessments 2020

The NAEP 2019 district-level results report changes since 2017 for the 27 participating Trial Urban District Assessment districts, stating scores were "relatively stable since 2017" with most declines in grade 8 reading. No effect sizes are reported.
"Average mathematics and reading scores across the TUDA districts were relatively stable since 2017. Across both grades, 7 districts had higher mathematics scores as opposed to 1 increase in reading at grade 8 only."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Percentages of students at or above NAEP Proficient were unchanged in mathematics and lower in reading since 2017 at grades 4 and 8 — related
- Average reading scores in 2019 were lower in more than half of states at grade 8 and in approximately one-third of states at grade 4, while mathematics scores were mainly steady across states — related
- Grade 8 reading scores in 2019 decreased across the performance distribution, with greater decreases at the 10th and 25th percentiles — related
