There is wide recognition that history and civics have been neglected disciplines in American K-12 education. Recent events, including the January 6th insurrection of the U.S. Capitol, underscored this point and the need to elevate learning in these essential disciplines. The Educating for American Democracy (EAD) initiative has garnered broad cross-partisan and stakeholder support as a way to re-imagine and re-prioritize the important civic mission of K-12 public education. As schools and districts begin to leverage EAD in meeting their civic mission, it is less clear and more important to figure out how our K-12 education system can more effectively and comprehensively measure and evaluate success in civic readiness. What is the role of formative assessment? What is the role of summative assessment? How can students, families, educators, schools, districts, and policy leaders collaborate in supporting and evaluating success? Join leading educational measurement experts, practitioners, and stakeholders in this important and timely conversation.
