The education landscape in the United States has been changing
rapidly in recent decades: student populations have become more
diverse; there has been an explosion of data sources; there is an
intensified focus on diversity, equity, inclusion, and
accessibility; educators and policy makers at all levels want more
and better data for evidence-based decision making; and the role of
technology in education has increased dramatically. With awareness
of this changed landscape the Institute of Education Sciences at
the U.S. Department of Education asked the National Academies of
Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to provide a vision for the
National Center for Education Statistics (NCES)?the nation's
premier statistical agency for collecting, analyzing, and
disseminating statistics at all levels of education. A Vision and
Roadmap for Education Statistics (2022) reviews developments in
using alternative data sources, considers recent trends and future
priorities, and suggests changes to NCES's programs and operations,
with a focus on NCES's statistical programs. The report reimagines
NCES as a leader in the 21st century education data ecosystem,
where it can meet the growing demands for policy-relevant
statistical analyses and data to more effectively and efficiently
achieve its mission, especially in light of the Foundations for
Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018 and the 2021 Presidential
Executive Order on advancing racial equity. The report provides
strategic advice for NCES in all aspects of the agency's work
including modernization, stakeholder engagement, and the resources
necessary to complete its mission and meet the current and future
challenges in education. Table of Contents Front Matter Synopsis
