The 2010 Brown Center Report on American Education: How Well are American Students Learning?, With Sections on International
Tests, Whos Winning the Real Race to the Top, and NAEP and
the Common Core State Standards – by Tom Loveless, February 2011
Senior Fellow, the Brown Center on Education Policy, February 2011
“This edition of the Brown Center Report marks the tenth issue of the series and the final issue of Volume II. The publication began in 2000 with Bill Clinton in the White House and the Bush-Gore presidential campaign building toward its dramatic conclusion. That first report was organized in a three-part structure that all subsequent Brown Center Reports followed. Part I presents the latest results from state, national, or international assessments and alerts readers to important trends in the data. Part II explores an education issue in depth, sometimes by investigating different sources of empirical evidence than previous research, sometimes by posing a conventional question in an unconventional way. Part III analyzes a current or impending question regarding education policy. In all three sections, the studies strive to ask clear questions, gather the best available evidence, and present findings in a nonpartisan, jargon-free manner.”
