The New Jersey Department of Education's (NJDOE's) commitment to ensure a better alignment between the State's standards and the corresponding assessments is evident in the "Standards Clarification Project" and new state assessments. For example, the newly developed Areas of Focus, which the NJDOE refers to as "A Bridge between Content Standards and Assessments," which is evident in information related to each hyperlinked state assessment below.  

In the following hyperlinked resources we have integrated information from the "Standards Clarification Project" and the NJDOE's November 16, 2007 "Assessment Update,", December 19, 2008 Assessment Update, February 26, 2009 NJ ASK 6-8 Writing Assessment Update, and A Summary of Core Test Design and Administrative Features for Grades 3 –8 from December 3, 2009.
