The NCME Presidential Task Force on the Role of Educational Measurement in the Protection and Advancement of Civil Rights, initiated under President Michael Walker, would like to share a few updates with the community. First, thank you to everyone who participated in sessions at the April annual meeting in Denver and to those who have connected with the group since then. Engagement with the community has been valuable and very much appreciated. Looking ahead, a public commentary period will begin in mid-November.
During this time, NCME members will have the opportunity to read the manuscript produced by the task force and provide feedback. The task force will then revise the manuscript based on community input. More details about the commentary and revision process will be shared in the coming weeks. In the meantime, NCME members interested in supporting the work of the task force can reach out via email at ncme.taskforce@menloedu.org.
