Educational Achievement Gap
R.E. Lee student in Poverty Studies:
"I'm having some trouble with my current portion of the research project. I'm supposed to be comparing the educational achievement gap among the top and bottom quintiles in the US with the achievement gap among the top and bottom quintiles in various European countries. I have been able to find some limited information on the median incomes relating to educational attainment, but Prof. Beckley would like me to take it a step farther and look at comparing test scores, graduation rates, college completion levels, etc. I've been looking at information from the OECD, the Census Bureau, and the NCES mostly, but I was wondering if you knew of any other good sites especially for comparative data."
After considerable discussion and searching, we came up with this outline (using the new Web site template).
