The GED includes education data from UNESCO and the DHS. UNESCO data include a broad range of indicators, including data on tertiary education, and are available as time series. The DHS, by contrast, has more detail about primary and secondary education and disaggregates some data into urban versus rural areas. However, as the DHS data are based on surveys in particular countries, time series data are not available.

The GED also provides a series of analytic tools, such as the Rapid Assessment tools and Millennium Development Goals tool, to facilitate effective use of the data. The Rapid Assessment tools help identify the factors influencing the generation and use of human capacity within a country or set of countries. The Millennium Development Goals tool presents data on two education-related monitoring indicators and tracks country status versus the goals.

The NAEP Data Explorer, from the U.S. Department of Education, provides national and state results in 10 subject areas, including mathematics, reading, writing, and science.

The Long-Term Trends section provides national mathematics and reading results dating from the 1970s.

The site also offers grade 12 assessment results from the 2005 mathematics and science assessments for students who graduated high school in 2005. Results are available for transcript data such as course-taking and grade point average.

With the NAEP Data Explorer (NDE) you can create statistical tables, charts, and maps to help you find answers. Explore the results of decades of assessment of students' academic performance, as well as information about factors that may be related to their learning.
