The same assessment reported in October that every single state had seen a decline in math or reading scores amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The latest scores, officials said, reflect more of the impact of the disruptions from the virus that shuttered schools across the country.<\/p>\n<p>At a time of some pessimism about the state of the U.S. democracy, the test results suggest many young people are struggling to understand how government works and the importance of civic participation. Nearly one-third of eighth grade students cannot describe the structure or function of government, according to the results.<\/p>\n<p>Many U.S. schools aren\u2019t doing enough to reverse the trend, history and civics educators say.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Florida Department of Education announced Tuesday the rejection of 35% of the social studies textbooks publishers hoped to sell to public schools this year and forced others to delete or change passages state leaders disliked, including references to \u201cwhy some citizens are choosing to \u2018Take a Knee\u2019 to protest police brutality\u201d and \u201cnew calls for social justice\u201d after the death of George Floyd.<\/p>\n<p>The goal was \u201cmaterials that focus on historical facts and are free from inaccuracies or ideological rhetoric,\u201d said Education Commissioner Manny Diaz in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>The textbooks are for elementary and middle school social studies classes as well as civics, economics, U.S. history and world history courses.<\/p>\n<p>About 68% of eighth graders nationwide said they are taking classes mainly focused on U.S. history. That\u2019s compared with 72% of students in 2018. And only about half of eighth graders report taking a class mainly focused on civics and or government, which remains mostly unchanged compared to 2018, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re not putting a value there, and we\u2019re not saying this is something that they really need to be active, informed and engaged in as they grow,\u201d said Kerry Sautner, chief learning officer at the National Constitution Center, a nonprofit organization in Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n<p>The CivXNow Coalition, a civics education advocacy group, reported last year that 38 states require a stand-alone civics course to graduate high school and only seven states require civics in middle school.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Kelly, a government teacher in South Carolina, said he has seen a growing emphasis on ensuring students are doing well in reading and math, and rightfully so.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut every minute that you redirect to one place, it\u2019s got to come from somewhere else. And so, if literacy interventions don\u2019t have a connection to social studies, then we lose ground in social studies instruction,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The National Assessment of Educational Progress \u2013 known as the \u201cnation\u2019s report card\u201d \u2013 tested about 7,800 students across the country in civics, and 8,000 students in U.S. history between January and March 2022. The test was last been given in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>On a point scale of 0 to 500, the average U.S. history score dropped five points to 258, continuing a downward trend that began in 2014. Just 13% of eighth graders scored at or above the proficient level. The latest average score was one point lower than the results of the first U.S. history assessment in 1994.<\/p>\n<p>In civics, the average score dropped two points to 150 between 2018 and 2022. Just 22% of eighth graders scored at or above the proficient level. The results, which are on a point scale of 0 to 300, are the first drop since 1998. The average score at its highest was 154 in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>The civics test included open-ended questions that asked, for example, for students to name one advantage of having the government operate programs to provide for the needs of people, and to describe a way that political candidates use technology during political campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona said the scores highlight a need to provide more opportunities to learn about America\u2019s history and government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBanning history books and censoring educators from teaching these important subjects does our students a disservice and will move America in the wrong direction,\u201d Cardona said, referring to conservative efforts to impose new restrictions on how topics related to race and gender are taught.<\/p>\n<p>Republican Rep. Virginia Foxx, chairwoman of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, said the results are an \u201coutright failure that should concern every parent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Department of Education chooses to ignore this flashing red light and opts to shove wokeness down the throats of school districts and students,\u201d said Foxx, of North Carolina.<\/p>\n<p>According to the results, 40% of eighth grade students are performing below basic proficiency in history, meaning they likely cannot identify simple historical concepts in primary or secondary sources. Thirty-one percent are performing below basic proficiency in civics.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/thewestsidegazette.com\/fl-rejects-more-history-books-as-test-scores-dip\/\">FL Rejects More History Books as Test Scores Dip<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/thewestsidegazette.com\">The Westside Gazette<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>This article originally appeared in <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/thewestsidegazette.com\/fl-rejects-more-history-books-as-test-scores-dip\/\"><em>The Westside Gazette<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE AFRO- Test scores in history and civics have declined slightly for eighth grade students in the U.S., according to results that show an increasing number of children lack a basic understanding of either subject.
