NEPC Review: \u201cStudent Assessment During COVID-19<\/strong>. School closings and the ever-increasing number of deaths provide the backdrop for a proposal by the Center for American Progress (CAP) to deny waivers of the federally mandated administration of standardized tests in spring 2021. Further, the federal government proposes to add to those assessments in ways that CAP argues would make the test results more useful. In its recent report, CAP sides with the Department of Education\u2019s policy of denying such requests for waivers, and it calls for additional assessments that \u201ccapture multiple as- pects of student well-being, including social-emotional needs, engagement, and conditions for learning\u201d as well as supplementary gathering of student information. The report contends this will ensure greater equity in the time of the pandemic, supposedly through the addition of the new measures to annual assessments.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
