Forgot to mention RHofF members involved in the effort. Carol Lee, Kathy
Hinchman, John Guthrie, and I are on the Development Panel that has written
(negotiated is a more apt phrase) the Framework. Georgia Garcia is
involved as a consultant to WestEd, which holds the contract to organize
the work (committees, meetings, interface with the Governing Board). Karen
Wixson, as the Director of NAEP Reading Assessment for ETS (ETS holds the
contract with the National Center for Educational Statistics to develop the
actual assessment), attends all the meetings and offers clarification about
the current NAEP assessment practices. So lots of RHF prints (foot or
finger or both?) on this effort.
An updated interim draft of the 2026 (was 2025 before Covid) NAEP Reading
Framework is now publicly available for perusal. Unlike the June draft,
for this February draft there is no systematic attempt to receive
widespread public feedback. Even so, the National Assessment Governing
Board (NAGB), as a public entity, is always receptive to comments from the
public about all aspects of its work.
So anyone who wishes to contact NAEP should feel welcome to do so. From the
point of view of those of us who have been attempting to bring the
Framework up to date so that it aligns with the latest and most relevant
reading research, theory, practice, and policy., we would welcome comments
to the NAGB in support of our efforts. But feel free to comment in any way
you see fit.
