AEA Releases CyberEducation 2002
AEA, formerly the American Electronics Association, in conjunciton with the Nasdaq stock market, has released CyberEducation 2002, a compendium and comparative analysis of several trends and educational statistics from across the country.
Using off-the-shelf data from sources such as the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Department of Education, the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Test, and other standardized tests, AEA concludes that student performance in math education is improving, yet challenges remain. The report also provides performance profiles for each of the 50 states.
CyberEducation 2002 is available for $190 for non-AEA members. Free links to most, if not all, of the educational statistics used in the report may be found from the National Center for Educational Statistics <http://nces.ed.gov/index.html> and the NSF Division of Science Resource Statistics <http://www.nsf.gov/sbe/srs/stats.htm>.
