Facing the Consequences
Author: W.H. Schmidt
Publisher: Springer
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
A snapshot of the state of science and mathematics education in the US, based largely on data from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study, the most extensive cross-national comparative study of its kind, and focusing on the findings that in the fourth grade, US students performed close to the top in the world, but by the eighth grade they had fallen to average or below. Explores what, who, and how the subjects are taught; schools, teachers, students, and other factors; the importance of and access to the curriculum; systemic features; what the Study can and cannot tell; and other topics. The lack of an index limits its use as a reference. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Third International Handbook of Mathematics Education
Author: M.A. (Ken) Clements
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461446848
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 1119
Book Description
The four sections in this Third International Handbook are concerned with: (a) social, political and cultural dimensions in mathematics education; (b) mathematics education as a field of study; (c) technology in the mathematics curriculum; and (d) international perspectives on mathematics education. These themes are taken up by 84 internationally-recognized scholars, based in 26 different nations. Each of section is structured on the basis of past, present and future aspects. The first chapter in a section provides historical perspectives (“How did we get to where we are now?”); the middle chapters in a section analyze present-day key issues and themes (“Where are we now, and what recent events have been especially significant?”); and the final chapter in a section reflects on policy matters (“Where are we going, and what should we do?”). Readership: Teachers, mathematics educators, ed.policy makers, mathematicians, graduate students, undergraduate students. Large set of authoritative, international authors.

The Globalization of Science Curricula
Author: Oliver Stacey
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319715321
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
Globalization is a powerful force with far reaching impacts on education and education policy. The growth of large scale international surveys of student achievement and the increasing role played by intergovernmental agencies in education means that the influence that globalization exerts on education is likely to increase even further in the future. This open access book provides a significant and timely investigation into the impacts that globalization has exerted on science curricula in a diverse range of countries using extensive data sets collected by the IEA between 1995 and 2015. Using a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, this book considers the extent to which there have been changes to the intended and implemented science curricula in different countries over the last 20 years. Consideration is then given as to whether science curricula are becoming increasingly similar across countries over time. Finally the issue of whether the basis of an international core curriculum can be identified is addressed. Readers will gain a unique insight into the extent to which globalization and large scale international assessments have influenced science curricula in the last 20 years within both the primary and secondary phases.

Contexts of Learning Mathematics and Science
Author: Sarah J. Howie
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134232160
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
This book is the result of research from over fifteen countries, asking which background and environmental factors influence achievement in mathematics and science. This research is based on data from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), which was conducted under the auspices of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) in 1995 and 1998. In many countries researchers have started secondary analysis of the data in search for relationships between contextual factors and achievement. In these analyses two different approaches can be distinguished, which can be characterised by the metaphors of ‘fishing’ and ‘hunting’. In the ‘fishing’ approach, researchers begin with an open mind, considering all possible context variables as potentially influential. Applying analysis techniques such as regression analysis, Lisrel, PLS, HLM, and MLN, they then identify important factors within their countries or across a number of countries. In the ‘hunting’ approach, researchers hypothesise certain context variables and trace the effect of these variables on mathematics and/or science achievement.
