A partnership among researchers at the Council of Chief State School Officers and the Wisconsin Center for Education Research has recently produced an advanced, in-depth approach to collecting and reporting data on the enacted curriculum in K through 12 mathematics and science education (i.e., the subject content and instructional practices taught in classrooms). The surveys serve as a practical research tool for collecting consistent, reliable data on math and science instruction based on teacher reports. The data from the surveys can give states, districts, and schools an objective method of analyzing teaching practices and teachers' professional development in relation to content standards and system goals for improvement. This article describes results from initial studies using the Surveys of Enacted Curriculum and outlines how the survey data and reporting system provide powerful tools to assist educators and evaluators of education in the ongoing effort to improve student performance
