NAEP Questions Tool

The NQT provides access to over 3,000 released questions from NAEP assessments in a variety of NAEP subject areas. You can see examples of students’ actual answers to constructed-response questions, with scorer comments. You can also see the percentage of students nationwide who answered each question correctly, and how students’ performance on a given question corresponds to their overall scores.

You can bookmark questions for later use, and use them to supplement classroom instruction. You can also build a quiz and administer it to your students and class.
