Book Description
Are current testing practices consistent with the goals of the reform movement in school mathematics? If not, what are the alternatives? How can authentic performance in mathematics be assessed? These and similar questions about tests and their uses have forced those advocating change to examine the way in which mathematical performance data is gathered and used in American schools. This book provides recent views on the issues surrounding mathematics tests, such as the need for valid performance data, the implications of the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics for test development, the identification of valid items and tests in terms of the Standards, the procedures now being used to construct a sample of state assessment tests, gender differences in test taking, and methods of reporting student achievement.

A Review of Research in Mathematical Education
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
This first volume of a review prepared for the Cockcroft Committee of Inquiry into the Teaching of Mathematics in Schools in Great Britain, and its main conclusions were incorporated in their report, "Mathematics Counts." Its aim was to display the main outcomes of research relevant to the teaching and learning of mathematics. The introduction of this first volume was intended to highlight some of the main points of the review, as well as to put it into the context of questions currently of concern. The 14 chapters of the document synthesize the research on the following particular topics in mathematics education: (1) the mathematics curriculum; (2) background psychology; (3) stages of general intellectual development; (4) skills, concepts, and strategies; (5) the teaching of facts and skills; (6) understanding of concepts in specific topic areas; (7) teaching methods; (8) process aspects; (9) attitudes; (10) individual differences; (11) language; (12) evaluation and assessment; (13) calculators and computers; and (14) using research. A supplement has been added to take account of work published since the original review was compiled. (MNS)
